Even just seeing one of these in person is incredible, I can’t even begin to comprehend what the driving experience would be like

Great video, but a little bit of click bait going on here. This has nothing to do with the Porsche classic other than looks. It appears to have an ls motor with newer Porsche trans. Not even “Close” to what a real 917 would drive like. It’s a Porsche kit car .

He did put “reborn” in the title so there was a warning. It’s not like the title was “barnfind, time capsule, all original survivor, vintage Le Mans finisher Porsche 917”.

Great Video. I just found your channel after buying my dream car after waiting 18 years. Got a 2019 sti and I have been learning more about it and mods to add to it from your channel. Also added the Idoing headunit after watching your video. Great content and hopefully I will see you on the road someday if I pass through Arizona.

I enjoyed this video a lot as well as all your videos!!! I miss the STI content. I also give props to you for inspiring me to purchase one, 17 STI here!!! Glad you posted some content!!!

Such a cool video, thanks for sharing homie. I saw a purple 917 at Daytona 24hrs this year rolling around the in field with its doors up. So sick

Cam slowly becoming a KZread master tech of every car I love it

Love that car!!! That’s got to be so cool to see coming down the road…and probably even cooler behind the wheel!super cool!!

Awesome stuff guys! Well done 👍🏽

Great Video . I can always cry when you want to start the engine and it doesn't run . The brakes are locket is also something these are the problems from long storage . I have the same experiense . Your car looks great ❤

You should change the seat belt mounts behind the seats they're bolted flat not in the direction of pull

GREAT ACCOMPLISHMENT young man! You got that beut on the road!

Loved this

Thanks Trent!

I'm sure there was a lever to move the wall behind the seats back in original as drivers were changed over in le mans 24 There was also away to raise the body of frame and there was a single seat in centre with dials in centre making More room above the drivers head great car great video

This thing is sick

It's very cool, but it's unfortunate that's its a kit car. Had an LS in it.. so is it really that special?

That car is awesome! 😎 🤘 ☠️

Nice!

So many good memories in that car...

Great replica. 917’s always a tight fit for driver. Scary to drive. Need to modify so you can fit. Won’t be comfortable, but they never were. Problem is finding shop that can find that extra 4” you need. It’s doable.

Dude. It’s got an LS engine in it. One of the most dependable motors in the world. A far cry from an air-cooled flat 12. A great replica but a far cry from what Zuffenhausen produced in its original design.

amazing vid

It has big fins on the tail, so it's a 1971(!) Version, not from 1970...😉

And it’s in the 71 lemans winning paint scheme. Not sure when the original would have specifically been made but it could have been 70. One of only two magnesium chassis’.

You'd think with a replica they would've built the car so that the owner could fit in it. 🤔

How the F**K did this video get less than half the views of an audi s4.... people here don't truly love cars if they don't like this.

Just watched scotts video about the car and it makes me so upset He goes on and on about lemans etc etc Never mentions its a gd KIT Car

😩12 cylinder LS3 ??? This is never going to be a 917

I dont care it's a kitcar...i drive a porsche 944 and people always trash it for not be a real porsche😂so for me it's normal😎real carlovers know what it takes to build a car like this

Beautiful. No info on whom built the replica, or powertrain, susp, chassis?? Should've just trailered it to closed course track, even if a few hundred miles away and give it a go.

Sorry,that`s not a "reborn" 917,it`s just a Kit Car,doesn`t even have a Porsche Engine.......Here in Germany,it wouldn`t even be allowed to call it a Porsche.

no he didnt

Ditch the treaded tires for slicks... remove the mufflers and let me drive it! I will show you what a 917 can do 😂.
