This 1973 Porsche 911T coupe was acquired by the seller as a rolling project in 2024 and has since been fitted with an electric Tesla Large Drive Unit motor, which is powered by 14 LG Chem 3.2-kWh batteries and linked with a single-speed transmission. The car has been repainted silver with white and red center stripes and fitted with RS-style bodywork, including a fiberglass hood, fender flares, bumpers, and a ducktail decklid. It rides on 16″ center-lock BBS wheels with coilovers, Tarett Engineering sway bars, and front and rear big brake kits. The interior has been stripped and houses a roll cage, Tillet carbon-fiber seats with harnesses, custom aluminum trim, a MOMO steering wheel, and an Apple iPad control screen. Additional build highlights include dual brake master cylinders, RSR spring plates, a hydraulic parking brake, LED headlights and taillights, a GPS traction control module, a front-mount radiator, and a Thunderstruck battery management system. This 911T is now offered with parts receipts and a clean Florida title in the seller’s name.

The car was fitted with a fiberglass hood as well as a fiberglass RS-style ducktail decklid, flared front and rear fenders, and bumpers before being repainted silver with white and red stripes under current ownership. Lexan rear windows have been added along with Dzus rear fender fasteners, 4Haus LED headlights, custom front turn signals, and Rennline LED taillights. The side windows have been removed and paint blemishes are shown in the gallery.

The 16″ Porsche 956 BBS center-lock wheels with gold centers are mounted on 935-style hubs and wear 205/45 front and 245/45 rear Toyo R888 tires that were installed under current ownership. Big brake kits have been fitted in front and out back, and the system features drilled rotors, dual master cylinders, a Tilton adjustable pedal, and a hydraulic parking brake. Suspension modifications include coilovers, RSR-style spring plates, 930 rear trailing arms, and Tarett Engineering sway bars.

The cabin has been stripped and fitted with a red-finished roll cage along with Tillet carbon-fiber seats with Simpson harnesses. Rennline aluminum dash trim and a passenger floorboard have been added, and the single-speed transmission and cruise control system are controlled via buttons on the transmission tunnel.

The three-spoke leather-wrapped MOMO Prototipo steering wheel frames an Apple iPad control screen, which incorporates a digital speedometer and tachometer. No odometer is fitted.

The Tesla Model S Performance drive unit motor was installed in 2024 using a Moonbuggy Engineering subframe and utilizes 14 LG Chem 3.2-kWh batteries controlled by an EV West kit and Thunderstruck Motors battery management system with an Elcon 3.3-kWh 400V charger and a J1772 charging port. The engine features three selectable drive modes that can be controlled via the iPad display. Cooling is through a front-mount radiator circulated by a Tilton coolant pump, and the 12-volt battery has been relocated to the smuggler’s box using a Rennline mount.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a single-speed transmission and a 930 driveshaft.
