Specialization, specialists and specialized

Singer's work on classic Porsche 911 models is something that for many has become the benchmark for restoring models, which retain pedigree and are enhanced with the latest powertrains.

Singer Vehicle Design is an American company that rebuilds and restores classic Porsche 911s. The company seeks to reimagine those manufactured between 1989 and 1994. These cars can have both Targa and Coupe bodywork; however, both, after passing through the hands of Singer Vehicle Design, usually end up being heavily modified vehicles. Many of the components fitted to them come from the racing world.

Singer's attention to detail, almost microscopic, is the key to their success. They strive for perfection in every job and this requires 4,000 man-hours of work per person to refurbish each car. A strong specialization in vehicle modification that clearly marks a milestone in automotive history.

What's more, Singer can now finally buy engines directly from Porsche - congratulations guys!

A great story that tells how the strong specialization in engineering, design and manufacture of racing engines achieves what they could never imagine. In 1964, when Mercedes-Benz decided to completely abandon the competition, the engineers and workers of the company Hans-Werner Aufrecht and Erhard Melcher began to modify vehicles with which they could compete. They did this entirely by hand in the garage of the former's house in the small town of Grossaspach.

When the garage of the family house became too small, they decided to move to an old mill in the town of Burgstall, and in 1967 they created a company dedicated to specializing in engines for racing.

Thanks to the friendship that Hans-Werner Aufrecht maintained with those who had been his bosses, the AMG company began a new stage in which, without abandoning some participations in the competition, was dedicated to improving the aesthetics and performance of Mercedes-Benz.

This is how in 2014, Mercedes and AMG announced their first car and with it a new brand responsible for the development and manufacture of the highest performance versions of each range was created.

After a failed attempt at Ferrari, Enzo Pagani was hired at Lamborghini, where he specialized in a material that years later would lead him to glory: carbon fiber. After a long time, he managed to get to a place important enough to talk face to face with Ferruccio Lamborghini, the founder of the Italian company. Horacio told him that they should have their own division for the creation of composites such as carbon fiber.

The founder of Lamborghini did not agree with this, so Pagani decided to create his own factory by borrowing money from the bank. This is when he founded Pagani Composite Research in 1988. This new company collaborated with.

Lamborghini on numerous projects, including the redesign of the Lamborghini Countach, the 25th. Anniversary version, the P140 design concept and the Lamborghini Diablo.

In 1999, he revolutionized the automotive market with the first sports car made of carbon fiber, a technology he pioneered. An Argentinean who left his country with an illusion and many dreams, which today are realities.
