Backdate specialists
Discussion
Gents (& ladies where applicable)
I was wondering if anyonw could point me in the direction of companies that specialise in backdating cars, in particular, making an RSR.
I've found one or two but thought there must be a few out there that I cant find or even someone with experince and recommendations
Cheers Dale

Hi Dale try 911 Classic in east sussex ... he has done a few back dated cars for me , his work is excellent , he is doing a couple of 2.8 RSRs at the moment ... if you pm me I will let you have mob number as he isnt the easy'st guy to get hold of

If you pm me I'll tell you a very different story involving a bargepole Mark
I would suggest you do your homework thoroughly as I have had experience of a couple of the companies listed and my experiences weren't very good. Undertaking a project build requires quite a diligent approach to spec / budget.
Have you thought about buying an existing car and modifying to your spec? Often better to buy someone else's bills and usually works out cheap / saves the headache unless you are after something very specific.
Have fun doing it!

911 Classic has always done a great job for me ... ive been useing them for about 15 years and had no probs
Yes, I know of people with that experience. It's a strange world - that of old 911s. I have heard tales (direct from people who have experienced them) of others on that list with bad experiences. However I wouldn't try to tell their story as that's how internet exaggeration happens.I can only tell my own story. Well not on here of course as it's against the rules!

I met Gordon and Paul from 911Rennsport at Carfest South this year and was so impressed with their set up and the RSR they had on display, sold my GT3 and they are currently creating a RS for me at the moment, which I hope to pick up in February next year. Only time will tell whether I have made the right choice.
Karl, I take it from your profile photo you might have a 911Rennsport car.

It sure is my friend, can't wait to see her in the flesh, planning a weekend trip with Neil into Wales in April, if you fancy it.........would be great to see you. If not we must get the two old girls together 
Still got to decide on finishing touches but getting very excited, hope you all well
