Vintage Trophy, part of the Vintage Trophy Brands including Rover Trophy and Altezza Restorations, exists to build vehicles that feel timeless, modern, and luxurious..

The Signature 911 is our halo Porsche project: a reimagined G-body 911 that:

Drives like a thoroughly modern driver’s car
Looks like it belongs on a concours lawn
Feels like a bespoke object, custom color finishes

We treat each build as a commission. Once it leaves our shop, it carries the Rover Trophy name for life.

Every Signature 911 begins with a carefully selected 1978–1989 911 coupe (SC or 3.2 Carrera):

Clean title and straight shell
Inspected for rust, previous repairs, and hidden issues
Rust addressed with proper metal replacement, not shortcuts

Each completed car is numbered:
“Rover Trophy Signature 911 – No. 001, 002, …”
and documented in our internal build registry.

Period Lines. Signature Finish.

We strip the car, correct the metal, and refine panel gaps before any paint touches the shell.

Premium multi-stage paint, color-sanded and polished
A curated palette of period Porsche colors and Rover Trophy-inspired blacks and metallics
Bespoke colors available by commission
New seals, refined trim, and upgraded or restored lighting

Finished it will be a 911 that looks flawless in direct sunlight and under show lights.

A Cabin That Fits the Badge

Inside, the Signature 911 feels like a tailored, modernized cockpit:

Sport or Recaro-style seats, rebuilt with new foam
Leather or leather/cloth combinations in black, warm neutrals, and optional gold accent stitching
Houndstooth, tartan, or Pepita inserts as a Rover Trophy design signature
New carpets, headliner, and a restored dash
Rebuilt gauges with subtle Rover Trophy details

Comfort upgrades—discreet sound deadening, optional upgraded A/C, and a retro-look head unit with Bluetooth—make long trips and daily use genuinely enjoyable.

Flat-Six, Re-Engineered

We build a 3.4–3.5L flat-six that feels muscular but refined:

Forged internals, performance cams, upgraded oiling
Twin-plug heads with modern ignition
Individual throttle body EFI with programmable ECU
Or, by commission, a more classic induction system

We target ~280–320 hp, tuned for torque and real-world drivability, not just dyno numbers.

Each Rover Trophy engine is dyno-tuned, and the data lives in your build book.

Transmission & Driveline

Fully rebuilt 915 or G50 gearbox
Upgraded clutch and lightweight flywheel
Limited-slip differential
Tight, precise shifter with refreshed linkage

Classic Look, Contemporary Reliability

We keep the analog driving experience and classic visuals—but update the underlying systems:
Modern ECU tuning (where applicable)
Refreshed harnesses, upgraded relays and fusing for critical circuits
High-quality battery with cutoff
Quiet reliability improvements throughout the car
Turn the key. Drive. Repeat.

Modern Confidence, Classic Character

The Signature 911 is tuned to feel composed, fast, and predictable on real roads:
Upgraded dampers and refreshed bushings
Corner-balanced and aligned for fast-road use
Larger brake package with high-quality pads and braided lines
Restored or custom Fuchs-style wheels with contemporary tires
Steering weight, body control, and ride quality are all dialed in by Rover Trophy—one build at a time.
