The Appeal
The Porsche 924 was the marque's first front-engined, water-cooled sports car, and its transaxle layout gave it near-perfect weight distribution, a quality that has made it an increasingly popular platform for creative builds. This particular example has been rebuilt to Safari rally specification, completed in 2022, and finished in silver with a bold red and Martini Racing livery.
During the conversion, a long list of mechanical and cosmetic components were renewed, including the brakes, alternator, radiator, wheel bearings, and much more. It now sits on powder-coated white Porsche 924 Turbo alloy wheels wrapped in new Toyo all-terrain tyres, while the interior has been fitted with bucket seats, harnesses, a hydraulic handbrake, and VDO dials. Whether destined for regularity rallies or simply to command attention at any gathering, this Safari-spec 924 is a distinctive and ready-to-enjoy proposition.40f1e9d1-398d-455c-af36-360b3924a0ef.webp106.1 KB
