Re: Singer!
Lars997:
Absolutely stunning! I love the details in the interior, everywhere you look you can discover little details of love build into this dream on wheel! Enjoy it!
Question.... is it now a carbon or an Aluminum body?
Thanks Lars.
The chassis is a 964, so steel and every body panel is made of carbon fibre, front wings, rear wings, front hood etc. The roof is steel because it is a structural part of the chassis.

Futch: I am currently on holiday in London staying at the Marriott, Maide Vale and am prepared to swap out my 2 kids for the car. Please let me know if you are interested - leaving on Thursday.
Budster, perhaps you should mention if your interest is in a permanent swap, or just until you leave ??
Re: Singer!
Many congratulations Futch - I'm not a fan of the older 911s but this I would be happy to own :)
One question - Porsche Germany do complete restorations of older cars. Why did you choose Singer over Porsche? Is it because the additions to the Singer improve the car or something else ?
Great way to start 2013!

Budster:
Oh permanent: they are good for general household chores etc. how about futch takes the kids permanently if only I can have the car for a few days?
Can they clean, buy groceries, cook and babysit? If so, you can have the car for one month.
Yes (well, maybe at least - all untested!). Anyway, at least my bragging rights extend to "I had the opportunity once to drive a Singer for a month..."!

The classic department of Porsche is pretty poor, expensive and for classic cars, there are much better guys out there, Gunnar Racing, Crubile Sport, Etc. only to name a few.
However, the Singer is a different kinda car all together, 60s looks with modern technology, so there's nothing classic about, Porsche wouldn't approve of the project I think.
Singer is Porsche a bit what Eagle is to the E Type in the UK I guess.

Amazing project and car, congrats 
There was a company in Germany making the same project on the Gullwing models, 50 classic looks with 90 (at time) technology, you could use it everyday.
