World’s First AWD Porsche 356 Coupe Allrad Is A 911-Based Restomod What do you get when you cross a classic Porsche 356 Coupe with the all-wheel drive chassis from a 911? Meet the ‘Allrad’, Emory Motorsports’ latest creation and perhaps the most capable 356 ever made. The project was commissioned by a customer looking to drive his 356 to East Coast ski resorts during the winter, so the decision to marry the chassis of a 1990 964 C4 chassis to a 1964 356 Coupe body was swiftly made. The whole project lasted four years and included laser scanning both the 1990 chassis and the 1964 body in order to marry the two in the best possible way. The goal was to retain all the original 911 suspension pick-up points and the 356’s shorter wheelbase. The 356’s steel body was then subtly widened to match the 911’s rear track. For the suspension, Emory went for an adjustable KW coilover setup to achieve the optimal balance between ride quality and handling. The 911 C4’s five-speed G64 manual transmission was retained but the driveline was upgraded with a rally-style differential that allows independent front-to-rear and side-to-side manual torque control. The brakes come standard from the 964 while the custom wheels measure 16×7 inches and are fitted with 205/60 Pirelli Ice Zeros. Power comes from the Emory-Rothsport “Outlaw-4” engine, meaning a 2.4-liter flat-four fed by dual Weber 48 IDA carburetors producing 200 horsepower. As you would expect from a build of this quality, there are numerous details worth talking about; the body is finished in Graphite Blue metallic and features yellow headlight lenses, a flattened hood, a louvered deck lid and a rood rack made out of -get this- titanium. The rack was designed in CAD to be fully functional and that means carrying bikes, skis, or other gear on road trips. Even the one-off drip-rail clamps were 3D printed in chemically pure titanium, then welded to the custom-fabricated rack. The end result is a true all-weather Porsche 356 that features not only the more modern 911 suspension geometry but also comes with a curb weight of just 2,150lbs (975kg).

No me gusta, para mi todo eso sigue siendo tuning y escarallamiento de un producto original. Agradecer no obstante el trabajo pasadp en subir tpdo el reportaje.
El afortunado propietario lo quería AWD y con baca para ir a esquiar, llevar las bicis... probablemente tenga un buen garaje y algún otro 356 de Emory, o este verde que asoma al fondo Si te fijas en las fotos de la baca, por si sola ya es una obra de artesanía Emory Porsche 356 Coupe Allrad Rod Emory restores Porsche 356 coupes and convertibles at his shop in northern Los Angeles. His company "Emory Motosports” are specialists in customising the Porsche 356s since the late 1980s. The latest masterpiece to roll out of their workshop is this beauty, perhaps the most capable 356 ever made. Named the "Allrad", the stunning creation combines the classic shape of a Porsche 356 Coupe with the all-wheel drive chassis from a 911. Commissioned by a customer looking to drive his 356 to East Coast ski resorts during the winter, the "Allrad" is powered by a Emory-Rothsport 2.4-litre Outlaw-4 engine that delivers 200 horsepower, and features KW coil-over shocks, custom billet components, a competition fuel filler, an 18-gallon GT FuelSafe fuel cell, amber headlamps, rally-style fog lights, a Prototipo racing wheel, a fully-titanium ski rack and Pirelli Ice Zeros tires, resulting in a machine that can sprint up any mountain pass with ease. The whole thing was finished in a stunning one-of-a-kind graphite blue metallic paint color.
Otra obra de Rod Emory, el 356 1959½ “Transitional” Speedster, la base es un 356 Coupé que de un piñazo se destrozó el techo Meet The Porsche 356 Coupe That Was Given A Second Lease On Life As The Emory 356 1959½ “Transitional” Speedster Rod Emory and his team have become renowned for their extremely skilled restoration and modification work on Porsche 356 models. Their ‘Outlaw’ treatment has been carried out on over 170 cars since Rod and his wife Amy started Emory Motorsports in 1996—and now they have added another stunning restoration to that list. Called the Emory 356 1959½ “Transitional” Speedster, this car originally started off life as a coupe but due to an accident that made its roof essentially unrepairable, it was destined for the junkyard. Where others might see a lost cause, Rod saw an opportunity and decided to resurrect the damaged car as a unique interpretation of the classic Speedsters of the late 1950s “Each 356 that we put back on the road is a piece of Porsche history, and we work very hard to preserve that creative spark,” commented Emory, “The best part of my work is bringing new life to cars that might otherwise be destined for the junkyard.” The damaged 356 proved to be the perfect canvas from which to create this one-off 356 Outlaw and it underwent a ground-up restoration process with numerous bespoke components such as a hand-formed a racing-inspired aluminum tonneau cover and headrest fairing. The Emory 1959½ “Transitional” Speedster is finished in a period-correct Aquamarine Metallic paint and features adjustable Koni dampers and updated suspension components to help it cope with the additional power the 2.4-liter Emory-Rothsport Outlaw-4 engine provides over the original 1.6-liter unit. Reflecting on the Transitional Speedster, Emory continues, “Porsche enthusiasts will notice that this build does not wear a “Speedster” emblem. This is a nod to the car’s coupe beginnings and to the idea that we are celebrating the best of what this car still had when we found it. The “1959½” designation also signifies how this car straddles model years and body styles.” The end result truly does capture the essence of those iconic original Speedsters and the upgrades and modifications only add to the desirability of what might well have become just another rusty old car abandoned to the elements.
EMORY MOTORSPORTS CREATES THE ULTIMATE OUTLAW EARLY PORSCHE, THE 356 RSR NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA —When car enthusiasts hear Batmobile and German car in the same sentence, they normally think of the BMW 3.0 CSL. Emory Motorsports’ latest creation will update that association to Darth Vader and Porsche 356. Third-generation car customizer/renowned early Porsche expert Rod Emory pulled a lifetime of automotive expertise together to create an exotic 1960 Porsche 356 RSR. As a grandson of one of Los Angeles’s first hot-rod shop owners, the son of the Baja Bug creator, and a former Top Fuel mechanic and competitive off-road racer, Rod was able to leverage every ounce of his automotive DNA in this builder’s dream project. “It started back in 2012 when I had my friend Greg Macey sketch a concept I had had in mind for quite some time,” Rod Emory says. “The idea was to create an homage to the Porsche works 935 cars of the 1970s while retaining our Emory 356 Outlaw styling. Greg did phenomenal sketches, which we posted on Instagram. MOMO CEO Henrique Cisneros reached out and asked what it would take to turn the concept into reality. Once we zeroed in on the details, we had a second rendering done by Avedis Djinguelian to serve as a more representative style guide to the finished product. The actual build time was about four full years.” As with other Emory Outlaw and Emory Special builds, the project began with the perfect donor car: a 1960 356B T5 coupe whose roof was undamaged but the rest of the body panels were destined for scrap. With fresh experience combining a 356 body and 911 chassis in the world’s first AWD 356 (the Emory/Independent Fabrication 356C4S project), Rod’s crew knew where to nip/tuck to combine the best of the two Porsche sportscar iterations, some 35 years apart in age. The result is a seamless super-performance concoction whose 356 silhouette is artfully preserved, thanks to its factory greenhouse and doors. This car is an example of Emory Motorsports’ highest-performance “RS” designated cars. All of the car’s now-removable nose and tail bodywork is hand-formed aluminum, as is the aluminum deck lid with custom stainless hinges and one-piece aluminum bonnet with oil-cooler air outlet. To relieve wheel-well air pressure, Emory Motorsports added louvers and front fender stand-offs. Other custom air-management modifications include stainless mesh grilles for the cooling ducts and intercooler air inlets in the steel section of the rear fenders. Final exterior touches are modified Porsche 911 rocker panels and Plexiglas side and quarter windows. The body color is a custom blend of PPG hues that Rod Emory calls Meteorite Matte Metallic. To merge the Porsche unibodies, the difference in wheelbase was essentially split (85 mm) with a clever redistribution of the length. However, all of the stock 964 suspension pick-up points were retained. Also, the engine frame section was tailored to a length appropriate for a 356-correct air-cooled four. Speaking of which, the exotic Emory-Rothsport twin-turbo Outlaw-4 engine produced a whopping 393 horsepower on Rothsport Racing’s engine dyno – incredible in a car that weighs only 1,950 pounds. This proprietary engine block, developed by and only available in Emory Motorsports builds, is a collaboration between Rod Emory and Jeff Gamroth of Rothsport Racing. The “Outlaw-4” engine’s architecture is based on the dry-sump Porsche 3.6L powerplant from the 1990s. To get the crazy power, Rothsport Racing created a purpose-built fuel-injection system with a one-off intake plenum and twin-plug distributor, managed by a Motec computer. The RSR race-inspired twin-turbo system uses two Garrett GT28R ball-bearing turbos with Turbosmart wastegates, backed by custom intercoolers. A dash-mounted 935-style boost control knob allows dialing up as much as 1.2 bar boost from the turbos. Other Outlaw-4 details include a full-flow oil system with remote filter and cooler, plumbed with XRP lines and fittings. Also, Rothsport Racing fabricated a custom 3-2-1 stainless-steel exhaust system, which ends with a muffler-less straight pipe. The fuel system includes an 18-gallon Fuel Safe fuel cell, cradling a Radium FCST fuel delivery system. The 356 RSR’s suspension was designed around the extreme power-to-weight ratio. Ride is controlled by KW coilovers with 1.5 inches of on-demand lift to negotiate driveway aprons. Eisenlohr Racing Products front camber plates and mono-ball mounts make for additional adjustability. Flatter cornering is made possible by Tarett Engineering swaybars. Also, the 964 non-power rack-and-pinion steering and brakes were retained, albeit with custom Coleman Racing rotors and hats. Competition components were one of the project’s springboards, but street-legality was the goal. Rod Emory has an affinity for the MOMO 5-spoke wheels with centerlock hubs from the Porsche works 935. Wheels like those were at the top of his must-have list. One bespoke set of MOMO Heritage center-lock wheels were created just for this car; fronts are 17x7 and the rears are 17x8, wrapped in Pirelli P Zero Trofeo R tires. The MOMO influence continues into the interior. Rod Emory is a huge fan of the 911 RSR MOMO Prototipo steering wheel, and MOMO recently unveiled a distressed version for a historic effect – complete with a quick-release hub. The adjustable Tilton pedals feature custom MOMO billet pads. The shifter knob is also a Porsche 917-inspired MOMO unit atop a Rothsport Racing shifter. Seats are custom and are modeled after the 911 RSR. They are covered in fire-retardant Spanish Red Veltex fabric with custom-embroidered MOMO logos. Occupants are kept in place by easy-adjust and quick-release 6-point MOMO competition harnesses. Safety is also improved by a custom Emory Motorsports removable rollcage. The 356 RSR has a few other cues that celebrate Porsche’s competition history. The amber fiberglass footboards and dash caps were inspired by the 917 and 935. The car’s marine-grade rubberized Hardura flooring is the same material used in Porsche GT cars. The floormat’s backing has sound-absorbing insulation. “People had strong reactions when we debuted the 356 RSR at Luftgekühlt this past May,” Rod Emory said. “It was too over-the-top even for some of the forgiving purists – something we’re used to after being branded Outlaws by the period-correct owners decades ago – but the car definitely attracted a lot of attention and now serves as a benchmark for what we can do with Porsche’s extremely flexible platforms.” For more information on Emory Motorsports, please call 971.241.7017 or visit EmoryMotorsports.com or @rodemory.

De 356 la denominación y poco más . La verdad hacen obras de arte aunque en este caso perdiendo la esencia del coche por encargo del caprichoso Cliente. Lo q no me cuadra ni me creo a no ser q lo hicieron en sus ratos libres por cuestiones económicas es el tiempo de realización , como se tíren tanto con cada unidad ya pueden sablar bien sablado , por lo q como digo entiendo ha sido por razones economicas , q son la única razón para él tiempo q se han tirado darle sentido . Este tipo de proyectos empiezan por una idea y un presupuesto y acaban con otra idea totalmente distinta y otro presupuesto .
Yo cambiaría algunos detalles, pero estas realizaciones están hechas para gustar a su propietario. Quién pudiera encargar cosas así!
