This completely restored 1987 Porsche 911 Carrera conceptualized by artist and Porsche collector Daniel Arsham, in collaboration with artist and mechanical whiz Greg Anagnostopoulos. Deconstructed at The Morton Street Partners Gallery, and subsequently reassembled in the Emmanuel Perrotin gallery, the Carrera quite literally an art piece and so named “Sculpture,” as it Daniel’s interpretation and enhancement of the already iconic Porsche design.

While far too many restoration details to list here, the project was all encompassing and starting with an exceptional and low mileage USA 3.2 Carrera, rebuilding the original engine and updating the displacement to 3.4 litre with Mahle high compression pistons, cylinders, rings, machining of cylinder heads, new valve guides seals, chain guides and tentioners, transmission overhaul and reseal, clutch flywheel and and pressure plate, new Porsche brake rotors, springs, trailing arms, steering rack rebuild, SSI stainless exhaust manifold, heat exchangers and muffler.

Fully color changed to the magnificent Porsche color Coppa Florio Blue with matching Fuchs alloy wheels, the complete interior trimmed in Arsham blue by Hamburg, Germany Porsche upholstery specialist Justin Placek, with the tri-color blue seats inspired by the 959, reassembled in the New York City Perrotin gallery and exhibited in autumn 2023 to celebrate 20 years of Daniel Arsham’s work, with just 600 miles since the project’s completion, Porsche collector and artist Daniel Arsham’s 911 Carrera “Sculpture” is in as-new condition throughout.

Copley Motorcars was established by Stu Carpenter in 1995. Working for other luxury and sportscar dealers in Boston since 1986, Stu has gained a longterm-experience in offering exceptional products at a fair price making the acquisition of a classic and luxury car as easy and as enjoyable as possible. The team at Copley Motorcars has a particular affinity for vintage Mercedes Benz, Ferrari and Land Rover Defender but also other blue chips such as 289 Cobra, BMW Z8 and Porsche 959. Since the market for these cars is a worldwide one, Copley Motorcars ships worldwide and can easily assist with the logistical arrangements. December 2019 marked Copley’s 24th year of buying and selling sports and classics. Their showroom is located in the center of Needham, about 15 miles west of the City of Boston. Copley has an interesting, some would say eclectic, mix of classic cars always on offer and find something to love about each and every one. And because Copley Motorcars is a smallish “boutique” type dealer, their classic cars don’t necessarily run out the door. A new arrival could be there for a day, a week or even six months. That said, all of their classics are different one to the next and are being looked at throughout the USA and the world. If you see a car you like and want to buy it, please contact copleycars@gmail.com. If you see a car and want to think about it, terrific too. But please, please, please assume that someone else is looking at the very same classic you are interested in so, if it gets sold, they do their very best to find another for you.
