Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Leading evidence: 'first time' (1 discussions report identifying this cause; no attributable repair resolution). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'first time' (1 discussions; 1 report identifying it and 0 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Use stretched fiero frame' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.

The really good replicas all use a stretched Fiero frame.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Speedster (replica) with a 959 bodykit bonded to it somehow. Or the illegitimate offspring of a Speedster and a 959. Looks horrific. Hopefully it's being towed to the crusher. But if this belongs to anyone here, then sorry, no offense, it's a beautiful car, hope you have many happy years together...
We live above a canyonish area, so we keep binocs on a tripod for bird watching. I saw a glimpse of the car, so I stuck my iPhone to the eyepiece so I could zoom in further...and took the pic.
Usually the Speedster kit cars are on its own custom tubular frame or on VW bug chassis.
The Ferrari's and Lamborghini kit cars are the ones usually on either tubular or Fiero frames. The really good replicas all use a stretched Fiero frame.
By "we," I primarily mean "my wife" - and I'm pretty sure she's not a hardcore voyeur. That "959" is probably the dirtiest thing those binoculars have ever been focused on...
Frankenporsche or not, it's a weird thing to see way off in the distance when you're standing in your own back yard...*squint* WTF? *squint* looks like a 959, but it's...*squint*
I think I need to find that house and learn the story of the kit car on the flatbed.
....Yeah, is there any way you can get that iPhone and binoculars on a women's sorority house so I can stop paying 29.95 a month? Kidding of course.....
It's called a "359 Speedster". It's a kit that's typically built on a Beetle chassis, and is supposed to contain styling cues of both the 356 Speedster and the 959.
Ok that is like me trying to record a song on fm radio by putting up a microphone to the radio speakers from my cassette recorder. I know some of you use to do that too.
Good God, a bug-powered 959? The Fiero-based Ferraris are monsters by comparison.
Here's a YT vid of one of these...things. I haven't NOT wanted something this bad since I learned about trannies in middle school.

Similar 'Moreau' car has been for sale locally for a while. Built on a '91 Targa platform. I don't think he's going to get the $33K he's asking for it...
Hey Schnelly, I believe your mystery machine is currently listed for sale on eBay - seller lists location as La Mesa.
