The oval dash and the flush windshield go hand in hand.

That car is missing a pedal, and the shifter is all wrong for a Porsche! The prototype guys must not have gotten rid of all the VW/Audi DNA.

Currently working on some videos of her, restoration to follow, along with complete, at least as much as I know, backstory and how she entered my life.
I'll link video on here once I post to YouTube.

So I am finally getting ready to start doing some work on this project, I did this quickie video some time ago but it'll give you guys a quick preview of the car. I have had some communication with Porsche PCNA in regard to it although it still hasn't been substantiated as to it truly being a Pre-Production test car.
Enjoy !!!
video here -

Definitely does, I'd still like to see if it's a car that Porsche might like to have for their museum, but having trouble getting a hold of the right guy at Porsche that can answer, or ask the right person, that question. Any chance anyone here knows someone within Porsche that can help out ? It's a really cool one of one car.
