Air-Cooled Legacy. Rewritten.

‍

INTRODUCTION

This drop-dead gorgeous machine is the Works 993 GTR - By Retro Works Yorkshire, the final generation of the air-cooled 911 reimagined through a far more bespoke and individual lens. Unlike many contemporary restomods, the GTR is built around the revered 993 platform, taking the analogue foundations that make this era of Porsche so significant, compact dimensions, air-cooled tactility and the purity of manual rear-drive engagement — and elevating them with the theatre, craftsmanship and unmistakable presence of the Retro Works philosophy.

Beautifully and tastefully commissioned in Amazon Green over Chocolate and Saddle leather with delicate gold detailing throughout, this GTR feels every bit as special as its specification suggests. Beneath the surface lies an exceptionally usable mid-90s 911; one that delivers a deeply engaging ownership experience without sacrificing comfort, driveability or character.

Showing just 618 km from restoration, this is far more than simply a restored 911. It is a deeply considered expression of the final air-cooled era, a classic Porsche you can genuinely use, and one that constantly urges you to take the long way home.

VEHICLE HIGHLIGHTS

This Works 993 GTR is presented in an incredibly tasteful and highly individual specification inspired by the Retro Works philosophy of blending classic 911 styling with modernised air-cooled usability and performance. Finished in Amazon Green, the exterior is defined by the Works GTR widebody conversion, central bonnet fuel filler, speed-activated elevating rear wing, Porsche Durant mirrors, gold detailing and 17” Braid Fuchs wheels.

Mechanically, the car centres around an enlarged 3.8L Mahle piston-and-cylinder, naturally aspirated flat-six built by legendary air-cooled specialists Strasse UK. It is further specified with FVD sport camshafts, a Cargraphic complete exhaust system, H&R adjustable coilovers, rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual transmission.

The Cognac, Chocolate and Saddle leather interior combines hand-woven detailing with Rennsport RS80 seats, Rennline hardware, MOMO Prototipo steering wheel and Porsche PCCM with Audison audio.

Getting the combination and balance right when commissioning such a build can be challenging; in this case, we would not change a thing.

MODEL HISTORY

The Porsche 993 generation occupies one of the most important positions in 911 history as the final evolution of the air-cooled era. Introduced as the successor to the 964, it refined the traditional 911 formula with improved chassis sophistication, smoother bodywork and greater usability, while retaining the compact dimensions, mechanical tactility and unmistakable character that defined earlier air-cooled cars.

That balance is what makes the 993 so significant today. It sits between classic and modern Porsche eras, combining analogue feel with a more resolved driving experience.

The Works 993 GTR concept builds on that foundation by blending the final evolution of air-cooled Porsche engineering with classic early-911-inspired styling and bespoke character. The Retro Works philosophy describes the car as a synthesis of classic style, performance, reliability, comfort and luxury within a classic Porsche platform. Features such as the central bonnet fuel filler, Porsche Durant mirrors, Works drilled handles, Fuchs-style wheels, hand-woven leather detailing and enlarged 3.8L engine configuration all contribute to that reinterpretation.

Rather than existing as a preserved factory-standard 993, this car takes the air-cooled formula and reshapes it into something more expressive, dramatic and most importantly… usable.
