Why Porsche 964 and 993 Models Are the Ultimate Platforms for Restomod 911 Builds
Porsche 911 restomods are surging in popularity — and for good reason. They offer the perfect blend of vintage looks and modern performance, giving drivers the chance to own a classic without sacrificing comfort, drivability, or reliability. But not all base models are created equal. At Shoreline 911, we believe the Porsche 964 and Porsche 993 are the ultimate starting points for any 911 backdate or restomod Porsche project. Here's why.
The Golden Age of Air-Cooled Porsche Engineering
The 964 and 993 generations represent the final chapter of the air-cooled era. Launched in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s, these cars retained the soul of earlier 911s while introducing huge improvements in handling, safety, and build quality. The Porsche 964 was the first 911 to offer all-wheel drive in the Carrera 4 and came with a refined suspension setup. The Porsche 993 introduced a multilink rear suspension that dramatically improved road stability. Both platforms deliver mechanical engagement and emotional feedback while still being refined enough for regular use, making them ideal candidates for a restomod 911 for sale.
Why the 964 and 993 Are Perfect for Porsche Backdate Builds
Unlike early vintage Porsche 911s, the 964 and 993 offer a strong, modern chassis that can support upgraded performance parts, wider bodies, and enhanced driving dynamics. That’s what makes them such ideal platforms for 911 backdate projects that combine the heritage of the past with the capability of the present. At Shoreline 911, our backdate builds reshape the car with classic long-hood styling, G-series-inspired front ends, and details like central fuel fillers. Clients can choose from chrome or black trim depending on the tone they want their build to take. Every line is adjusted with intention. Every surface refined. The result is a car that visually nods to the 1970s while driving like something from today.
Building Performance and Style Into Every Backdate
A Porsche restomod should feel as good to drive as it looks. That’s why we offer custom performance packages designed around the air-cooled flat-six. Our available engines include a naturally aspirated 3.6-liter engine producing 330 brake horsepower, a 3.8-liter option tuned to 340 horsepower, and a supercharged 3.6-liter powerplant delivering 410 horsepower. Each engine is paired with tailored gearing and drivetrain enhancements. Clients can choose between the dynamic, rear-driven Carrera 2 or the confidence and grip of the Carrera 4 all-wheel-drive layout.
Our builds are also equipped with TracTive semi-active suspension systems. These can be adjusted in real time from inside the cabin, giving drivers control over ride quality and responsiveness. It’s the kind of flexibility that makes a restomod not just fun for spirited driving, but usable in everyday life.
Bringing Modern Touches to Classic Interiors
Inside, each Shoreline 911 backdate strikes a careful balance between timeless minimalism and modern refinement. The interior tub is painted in body colour for cohesion and simplicity. Every surface is built with precision and clarity in mind. The Porsche Classic Communication Management (PCCM) unit brings in Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, and navigation without compromising the integrity of the design. There’s no clutter, no distraction — just a cabin that feels like home for a driver who loves driving.
Backdated 911s with Purpose and Soul
Many Porsche 911s for sale look vintage but hide aging parts, outdated tech, and inconsistencies in quality. A Shoreline 911 backdate delivers everything you love about a classic — the look, the emotion, the purity — with none of the mechanical compromise. Our builds reimagine what a classic 911 should feel like today. This isn’t restoration for the sake of nostalgia. It’s reengineering, rethinking, and refining every element so that it lives up to the way we all believe a 911 should drive.
