- The distinctive figure of Magnus Walker striding towards his latest creation

- Man and machine

- Sticker badge

- Rod Emory fashioned the new louvred wings

- Aping the current GT3 RS

- Rear lights reminiscent of the original 911 R

- Magnus's signature rims

- Unlike 277, the 964 is largely devoid of stickers but a subtle Urban Outlaw shield doesn't look out of place

- Magnus seems to drive everywhere with the windows down – as you would if the weather was this good in the UK and you had a car that sounded as raucous as this

- Narrow body, big wing

- I love the mesh almost more than the badge

- Vented quarter lights

- Tight

- Can you see what's missing?

- The 993 motor in the back. It was with the car when Walker bought it but it's been punched out to 3.8 litres

- The colour looks all sorts of different shades depending on the light. Sometimes green, sometimes grey, here almost brown

- Jethro remembers his favourite joke. The one about the penguin and the socks

- Magnus Walker with his trademark hair. I looked positively groomed next to him

- Magnus has a big public persona, but underneath the look, he's just a proper car guy that REALLY knows his Porsches. He was great company, just hanging out on the Angeles Crest for two days while we did all the filming

- Deleting the rain gutters gives a wonderfully clean look. For those interested in such things, I was using a Lumix GX80 with a 50mm (equivalent) prime to take the photos. For better or worse, they're all unprocessed

- Love that front number plates aren't required in CA

- Heading off at the end of the day...

We met the Urban Outlaw and his latest Porsche project on the Angeles Crest Highway. There's a video to come, but here's a look behind the scenes...

I thought Drive Tribe was going to be all GoPro videos... this is a brilliant use of the platform. Love the detail photos and narrative you've put together here!
