The early long-hood look, with an inner frame made for the later car's latch. GT Racing part 21SL is designed for Porsche 911 backdates using the existing 1974–1998 hood-latch mechanism, including 993-based projects.
Construction and mounting
- 1965–1973-style outer profile with a short-hood inner brace.
- Vacuum-bagged, multi-layer composite skin with a foam core.
- Reinforced inner frame bonded to the outer skin.
- Stock hinge mounting hardware and the later stock latch mounting location.
- Average weight: 14 lb.
- Supplier reference: GT Racing 21SL.
Conversion hood or early hood?
For an original early-car latch arrangement, see the 1965–1973 long hood, part 21. Part 21SL is the conversion version supplied in the 1974–1994 RSR backdate kit.
GT Racing lists compatibility with its 27, 28, and 29 front-fender families. Match the rest of the front bodywork to the early profile; the hood alone is not a complete backdate conversion.
Application notes
Long-hood outer profile with a later short-hood inner brace, for backdates retaining the 1974–1998 donor's latch.
Fitment and installation
1974–1989 G-body 911 / Porsche 964 / Porsche 993
Listed years: 1974–1998
Modifications or fabrication are required.
Your car will need:
- Early long-hood fenders
- Donor's later latch retained
- The hood alone does not complete the conversion; surrounding front panels must match the long-hood profile.
- 993 use is an explicitly documented conversion application, not a stock 993 replacement.
Check these notes against the parts already on your car. Body panels may need trimming and alignment; trial-fit before paint.
