[When you think of a Porsche 911](<https://www.thedrive.com/new-cars/41809/2022-porsche-911-gt3-vs-911-gt3-cup-car-review-the-best-of-the-best-of-the-best>), you might imagine sitting in one of these [poster cars](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/41885/which-car-posters-adorned-your-walls-as-a-kid>) carving canyons or smoothly shifting gears on the highway. And yet, some intrepid souls are fitting off-road bits to their 911s and whipping them into the dust. [At this year’s Dakar Rally](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/43816/meet-the-american-team-who-piloted-a-1982-porsche-911-sc-in-the-dakar>), for example, American driver Amy Lerner tackled all 5,000 miles in her 1982 Porsche 911 SC. [And Renee Brinkerhoff has been rallying on dirt roads all over the world in her 911 predecessor, a well-equipped 1956 Porsche 356A](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/37982/renee-brinkerhoff-is-heading-to-antarctica-to-conquer-her-seventh-continent-in-her-porsche-356a>).

[Russell Built Fabrication](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/31550/the-650000-russell-built-baja-911-is-ready-to-conquer-its-namesake>) is on trend, built a 911 Baja Prototype on a 764 Carrera 4 Cabriolet chassis modified with a roll cage, and it’s wild. If this sounds like a dream to you, [it’s up for auction on Collecting Cars](<https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1991-porsche-911-964-baja-prototype>); bidding has jumped from $160,000 to $225,000 since Friday, and it appears to be on a northward trajectory all the way until the auction closes this Friday, February 4.

The 911 has been stretched like life-sized Silly Putty, adding three inches of length and 15 inches of width to the measurements of the [Carrera 4](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/41227/2022-porsche-911-gts-the-goldilocks-911-is-back-with-473-hp>) using custom composite panels. Finished in white, this off-roader is bolstered by aerospace-grade chromium molybdenum steel for strength and weight savings. That explains how this 2800-pound rocketship can catch air and not fall apart when it comes back down.

Under the hood, a 360-hp 3.8-liter flat-six engine built by [Rothsport Road & Race](<https://www.thedrive.com/news/30558/youll-cry-over-classic-porsche-prices-after-seeing-emory-motorsports-1959-speedster>) is mated with a six-speed G50 stick shift. Also blessed with 310 pound-feet of torque, it’s got moves. The Porsche already has a pedigree, too, showing as a finalist in the 2019 SEMA Battle of the Builders.

There’s no question it’s built for tough terrain; the Porsche 911 rides on a custom suspension crafted from 7075 grade alloy and 4130 chromoly steel. The features of the build afford the car a foot of suspension travel at the front and an inch more than that at the rear, which means it’s going to tackle bumpy roads like a dune buggy.

This is the first car in a limited series of numbered custom ‘safari’ 911 builds, and it looks like a blast. [Get it while it’s still grounded.](<https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/1991-porsche-911-964-baja-prototype>)
