This incredibly rare dream car was imported from Alaska after a eureka moment
Every gearhead has a dream vehicle that is often from a luxury, classic brand within the car world.
In fact, some people are so determined to achieve their dreams that they go to great lengths to achieve them, which is exactly what this guy did after coming to a certain realization.
YouTube creator Resto Revival ~ Car Stories shared the story of Jerry and his 1971 Porsche 911 T, an incredibly rare model steeped in history.
The three years of restoration means the car is unlike any other, yet it still remains classic and clean.
When it comes to Jerry’s decision to import the car, he simply realized that ‘life is too short’.
“If I had one last drive, I think it would be this car. I have no intent of selling this car,” said the owner, Jerry.
Plus, he explained that his love of all things Porsche stemmed from his father restoring historic race cars, so it’s always been in the family.
When it comes to powering the dream buy, the car received a full top-end rebuild, and beneath the hood lies a 2.2L E engine.
“The power is just right for the chassis,” said Jerry as he gave an exclusive look at the powerhouse, which you can watch below.
The Porsche 911 is an automotive icon
The Porsche 911 first hit the production line in 1964 and has remained a staple in the car sphere ever since.
Many gearheads dream of owning the car model and will do anything to snap one up if they can, which we’ve seen firsthand.
In fact, one Porsche lover even flew halfway across the US to buy and drive home a 500hp, V8-swapped Porsche 911 he bought sight unseen from Facebook.
Plus, the car also has famous fans, with Dua Lipa showing off a custom Porsche 911 GT3 RS at Goodwood Festival of Speed.
