If you want a  hotrod car - a faster and more powerful vehicle - the bizarre Porsche can be your best choice. The afterlife for this 1971 Porsche 911T is a real head-turner on the street and mostly remained of the car is its name.  The artwork is made by custom builder Alexander Danton. 

The replacements started with the rear-mounted flax-six of the 911T which got replaced by a Bentley Mulsanne Turbo turbocharged, front-mounted 6.75-liter V8 engine delivering over 300 hp. The hotrod has its engine coupled to the automatic transmission driving the rear wheels through a live axle.

The main distinctive element for a hot rod is the 100% exposed engine to the element on the front view of the car and this Porshe has one the headlights got replaced with a cold air intake to feed the V8.

The original 1971 Porsche 911T had a naturally-aspirated petrol 2,3-liter, with 6-cylinder with 2 valves delivering 140hp and a maximum torque of 196Nm. Also, the original engine features dry sump-type lubrication and is coupled to a five-speed manual transmission.

Unfortunately, the hotrod isn't street-legal, but Danton still, equipped it with coilovers which allows an adjustable height. The interior features a set of alloy seats, a flat-bottomed  Sparco Steering wheel, simple switches and gauges, and a prominent shifter.  

The hotrod Porsche 911T will be auctioned by the Bonhams auction house and the price starts at $6,965 and $13,930.
