I was very fortunate to get invited to see Magnus' workshop last week. I say workshop but in reality; its a mini museum! Cody Walker (brother of late Paul Walker) was also there to join us. Enjoy the photos.

Cheers
Carson

Wow, you can tell Cody is Paul's brother, those eyes...

Thanks for sharing

^ditto , I'd like to check out that collection!

What timing, I just hit the record button on my remote about 5 minutes ago for Fast/Furious 7.

Looks like he has out grown that building...

Great collection and fine photos of it. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for sharing. He definitely needs more space. Some great cars for sure.

At first I couldn't get why this guy was relevant to Porsches, but after reading the article in SpeedHunter I realized he is a car guy just like me. Just way better with projects and vision. Great pictures.

I use to think Magnus was a Poser but after watching him speak on a TED x spot I realized he's a dude that knows how to seize opportunities and he loves Porsches

Those are some damn fine cars ...

Posted by: somd914 Feb 14 2016, 11:30 AM

Magnus has certainly caught a lot of flack on various car forums, just not Porsche. Whatever, don't care about that... I don't think anyone, besides the originality crowd, can give him flack for his fine collection.

Thanks for sharing.

Nice cars and all, but WHAT is he going to do with the 914's?

Posted by: Cuda911 Feb 14 2016, 11:47 AM

I agree.

Posted by: somd914 Feb 14 2016, 12:04 PM

I'm not sure if I'm more envious of his cars or his hair given mine is becoming as thin as the air on Mt. Everest...

Posted by: jmill Feb 14 2016, 12:32 PM

I'm very curious about that too. I may not be a fan of the man, but I wouldn't change anything when it comes to his cars. I'd love to see what he would do to the 914. I'm sure it would impress me and I'd use his ideas on my own project.

You can get them too... AA sells 'em in the "outlaw section"

Thanks for sharing....nice group of cars

Posted by: KELTY360 Feb 14 2016, 03:24 PM

Why?

Posted by: somd914 Feb 14 2016, 06:36 PM

Well that was easy, unfortunately obtaining such a car collection will be a bit more difficult.

Also agree that I'm curious to see what he does with 914s...

Posted by: iwanta914-6 Feb 14 2016, 10:19 PM

I think I read that he's content with just driving them for now.

Posted by: nine11speedster Feb 15 2016, 12:10 AM

YES. When I asked him, he said he has no specific plans for the 914s yet, he will drive them as is for now.

Posted by: 914-300Hemi Feb 15 2016, 12:14 AM

Great pictures. Thank you for sharing.

Posted by: somd914 Feb 15 2016, 07:09 AM

True, but give him some time...

Posted by: billh1963 Feb 15 2016, 07:21 AM

I see some seriously nice stuff in there...thank you for the pictures!

Posted by: RobW Feb 15 2016, 07:32 PM

Good to see the old boy back in action. Tough to lose one's soulmate. Thanks for sharing!

Posted by: 396 Feb 15 2016, 11:38 PM

Thanks for sharing, he's got a nice collection. I'll take the green one in the first photo.

Posted by: oldschool Feb 16 2016, 01:14 AM

very cool.....Thanks for posting.

Posted by: jmill Feb 16 2016, 05:17 PM

You take that one and I'll take the 924 carrera GT. I had a 924S and still have a soft spot for the Carrera. I'd definitely repaint it though.

Posted by: JamesM Feb 16 2016, 10:47 PM

All these tricked out 911s and yet I find myself most interested in the 924s and if the one is a real 937 or a clone??

Posted by: 396 Feb 17 2016, 12:42 AM

Base on the one picture, its most likely a clone. The green TT looks like the real thing base on the rear view.

Posted by: 7TPorsh Feb 17 2016, 12:54 PM

i'll believe it when i see it...

Posted by: JRust Feb 17 2016, 03:12 PM

I hope you invited him to the West Coast Rally this year . Love to see any of those cars show up. I haven't had the pleasure of meeting him in person. I would sure like too though

Posted by: rick 918-S Feb 18 2016, 04:36 AM

Lots of donors there. Nice!

Posted by: arkitect Mar 19 2016, 08:43 AM

I didn't know that he lost his wife...that would b hard on anyone.

Since Magnus is a hotrodder and customizer at heart. It probably won't be too long before he puts his own spin on them. Considering he likes power, the stock engines will be history. Also considering how well 914s corner, I could see him becoming seriously hooked after upgrading power, suspension and seating.
