Flying Lizard Porsche "Art Car" Restored

Flying Lizard Porsche "Art Car" Restored



Flying Lizard Motorsports revealed today that the team's No. 80 2007 Porsche 911 GT3 RSR "art car", which raced at the 2007 24 Heures du Mans, has been restored in its original custom livery, designed by Troy Lee. The newly-restored No. 80 Porsche was on display this week at the New York International Auto Show at the unveiling of the new 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 and at a private Porsche-sponsored Gala Preview reception and dinner. The Porsche will be available for sale at auction in August, 2009 in conjunction with the Monterey Historic weekend of events in Monterey, California

Flying Lizard Porsche "Art Car" Restored with Troy-Lee Livery



"When we learned that Porsche would be the featured marque at this year's Monterey Historic weekend, we wanted to bring our own contribution to the event by restoring the No. 80 art car to its original Le Mans livery," said Seth Neiman, Flying Lizard team principal and driver of the team's No. 44 Porsche in the American Le Mans Series. "We're delighted to have the Lizard back in place showing his vivid chameleon-like colors." Jerry Woods Enterprises, in Campbell, California did the restoration with the assistance of Troy Lee, who added the final artistic touches to match the original livery.
