Great ebay description. Currently at $34,600 on ebay with lots of time left. It makes me want to do a 6 conversion.

Nice car....I think the term Outlaw is misapplied here greatly....

It's a replica of a factory car with a bigger motor?!

To me Outlaw vehicles somewhat irk the purists of original cars, this car would fit right in the purists...

Calling that thing “outlaw” should be grounds enough for a false advertising lawsuit…

Looks a lot like my build except I'm using a 3.0
It's 90+% done maybe watching this will give me a bit of a push.

Outlaw, NOPE
Clean conversion - Yes
I don't see one item on that car that would make me thing hotrod or outlaw.

The man that defined this space in the Porsche world. "The term 356 Outlaw was a name given to The Emory's in the early 80’s because we were not afraid to install race and rally inspired accessories to a vintage Porsche. At time when full concourse restorations were at their peak and the owners were using q-tips to clean the dust out of the defrost vents, we were putting wide wheels and race numbers on our 356’s and driving them the way Porsche intended them to be driven. Now even the Porsche parade concourse events have classes for Outlaws. Emory Motorsports continues to build 356, 911, 912 and VW Outlaws for clients all over the world."

Emory has taken this over the top. drooley.gif

914 wise there are a lot of them on this site.... But that car certainly does not qualify as an outlaw.

We my friends might be at the verge of being in the same market as normal concours restorations are starting to push the norm due to the money in this place.

I have termed my car an outlaw because, race peeped items, and every body part will be modified to make it lighter, add stiffened, or fit larger wheels.... Now if I can get the Miata out of the shop as they seem to be breeding in there. sheeplove.gif

I think I've met the owner.

Being from Montreal and he likely is French speaking (as in English as 2nd language) and considers it "outlaw" because a lot of the parts would not have been on a real /6.

$35.6k reserve not met... Are those Canadian dollars? biggrin.gif Seems a little over priced...

But what do I know about non outlaw outlaws... confused24.gif
Mike Bellis
I just read the Samba ad asking for $55k. Maybe his Outlaw 914 robbed a bank and needs bail money... bootyshake.gif

It's a very nice conversion car with lots of good parts. GLWS...

If he paid someone else to do the work I can see how he could spend $55000. Nice car. Wonder why it's being sold and how old the conversion is. Did he drive it for a few months or years
Mark Henry
Just the Supertec engine alone I bet was over $25K.

Looks like he ended the ebay auction.

Here's a bunch of youtube snippets of his 914

Very cool car. Interesting that "Outlaw" has come up. I'm pretty new to the P-Car world, but it seems to get thrown around alot. Do things like V8 or Suby conversions count as "Outlaw" or is it strictly reserved for a Porsche gone bad(ass)?

Jeez, if that's an "outlaw" Huey is a hardened criminal! ohmy.gif

Outlaw was basically anything that pissed off the establishment (wine and cheese crowd). Typically it applies to the 356 and longhood 911 groups. I'm not sure there's much that would pass for more than faux outrage with the 914 community.

The car discussed it not an outlaw, just a VERY nice conversion. One that's probably worth the $50k asking, all things considered.
If I were a more motivated person I would get off my duff and finish my car, in my mind it'll be similar, if not better biggrin.gif when I finish it.
