This Safari-Style 1983 Porsche 911 is Adventure Ready

If you’re a Porsche enthusiast seeking a unique thrill, look no further than this incredible 1983 911SC Coupe that has undergone a meticulous Safari-style transformation. Recently featured in Bless This Stuff, this bespoke 911 build seamlessly blends classic Porsche style with impressive off-road capability.

The Safari-style Porsche is live in auction on Bring a Trailer, managed by WOB Cars. 

Work involved a repaint in Ruby Red Metallic with ivory bumpers and decals, along with the installation of brush guards, a ducktail rear decklid, auxiliary lights, skid plates, a coilover suspension, RSR-style sway bars, and 16″ Braid wheels with BFGoodrich K02 tires. The cabin features sports seats reupholstered in a 959-style with burgundy leather with Alcantara gray and ivory stripes.

As commenter @NavarroG aptly stated on the listing, “I’ve never thought about selling a kidney until right now… this is a true work of art.” And they’re not wrong – this 911 Safari is a masterclass in thoughtful customization and craftsmanship.

Robert Dietz, founder of WOB Cars, shared more about this particular build in the comments right as the auction opened:

“Wow, so excited to see this one live! What an incredible build, with so many little fun details. Sport seats upholstered in 959 style stripes, lit rear bar, the mountain scene tach and of course the awesome Porsche mud decals! Custom touches everywhere! LOVE this Safari!

All of the Ivory is Ferrari Avorio paint code which looks spectacular with the Ruby Red Porsche paint. The bumpers and bash bars are all Line-X to protect from rash and chips. And with an onboard air compressor and recovery gear, there are no worries of getting stuck.

The headlights are special units designed to have an early lens and keep the wonderful older style while the guts are LED projectors and ready to make great light especially paired with the light bar. The mud splash decals are continued through the engine lid and floor boards.”

Whether tackling twisty backroads or dusty trails, this head-turning 911 is ready to take your adventures to the next level.
