- Magnus Walker has customized many Porsches in his fleet.

- Also listed for sale are a 928, two 968s, and a blue 911 GT3.
Magnus Walker is a gearhead through and through, and his eclectic Porsche collection has become the stuff of enthusiast legend. Now a few of those machines are about to change hands. Later this month, several cars from his garage will head to auction, giving fellow Porsche fans a chance to take home some genuinely intriguing creations.
Unlike many collectors who treat originality like sacred law, Walker has never been shy about adding his own touch. Take the 2004 911 GT3 he is selling. He bought the car in 2016 and later had the hood painted black, complemented by orange and bright blue accents across the exterior.

The interior has seen a few tweaks as well, including the addition of a carbon fiber steering wheel. Estimates suggest it could fetch as much as $125,000.

Another interesting car from the collection is a 1965 Porsche 911. Walker fitted it with black Fuchs-style wheels and a custom paint scheme that blends silver with black, dark red, and gold accents. It’s a look that feels unmistakably Walker.
The most expensive car at the auction is expected to be a 1976 911 Carrera 2.7 MFI. It marked the end of the line for Porsche models equipped with mechanical fuel injection and still carries its original 2.7-liter engine.
Walker’s example is believed to be one of just 113 homologation specials Porsche produced for the German market. He has given it a few personal touches, including a prominent ducktail spoiler, a fresh coat of paint, yellow-tinted headlights, and a set of tartan bucket seats.

Other interesting cars in the sale include a 1979 Porsche 928, a pair of Porsche 968s, a 1974 911 Carrera fitted with an aftermarket ‘Flat Nose’ body kit, and a bright blue 1976 911 Turbo valued between $175,000 and $200,000.
Walker is also parting ways with a dizzying assortment of Porsche parts and accessories gathered over decades. And if your garage, or wallet, is not quite ready for spare mechanical bits, the sale also includes a collection of Hot Wheels cars and even a signed Lego Technic model of the Porsche 911 GT3 RS.
