Rod Emory’s Porsche 356 RSR: The Outlaw’s Outlaw

Показать описание
Rod Emory’s parents brought him home from the hospital in a hot-rodded short wheelbase 911, which says all you need to know about the influence cars had in his childhood. Growing up in a household that was very well-versed in custom automobiles (especially Porsches), Rod proved that he didn’t fall far from the familial tree when he started modifying examples of the company’s first sports car at just 14 years old—to the chagrin of purists and delight of everyone else.
The work that followed would more or less define what an Outlaw 356 should aspire to, and now, decades later, Rod, his wife Amy, and the rest of the team at Emory Motorsports have created their magnum opus: They call it the 356 RSR. A far cry from a quaint and cute factory-spec 356, this one is blended with a 964 chassis and packs a 2.4L twin-turbo flat-four that provides the featherweight package with a few horsepower shy of 400. Join the ride as Rod takes us through his story and makes good use of that excellent power-to-weight ratio in the mountains outside of Los Angeles.

Looks like something from an alternate history where the 911 was never made and the 356 continued to be developed into the 70s.

When you combine resto mod, hot rod, and Porsche, something really special happens

I think one of the most beautiful things about these videos is that you guys actually show people who love their jobs and what they do. You rarely see that on any other car show or channel.

Big fan of Rod Emory, he makes some beautiful cars... strangely aesthetically this is my least favourite of all his builds, but this needed to be made nevertheless. I prefer the more classic builds. Great story and film as always!

Great story of a great car built by a man so humble to say "...building something regardless what others think..." Oh man, there lies a soul in it.

I love everything about this car. How it looks like a works race project from Porsche themselves. The strong level of aggression balanced perfectly with form and beauty.

I want one.
