I've used 911 racks in a couple of cars waiting that's different is the length on the shaft under steering wheel one is too long. Can't remember which one but the racks fit. Picture is of the 85 Carrera rack I bought back in 2010 that we put in Marks Sonners 1974 car we call blue boy. 2270 Raby eng rebuilt by me and mark car finished by PMB Performance
