What with all the Singer 911's and various spin offs and people doing nice resto jobs of classics with modern parts etc these days. The burning question, has anyone done one to an S1 Esprit yet?

I love the shape of the S1's and the style, but there must be someone out there that can create one with modern brakes, components and everything? Unless I've missed it, which is likely.

Maybe just a massive resto project with an updated engine/gearbox, brakes etc. It would need to be cosmetically the same as the S1 exterior, the interior could be adapted slightly I guess?

But then, the original did have its charm, its such a compact package that any obvious changes would upset the balance of the car drastically I'm sure.

A little searching found a couple of nut and bolt restorations, one in grey and another in red.
