DESCRIPTION
The Seventies represented a truly 'rich vein' of Motorsport success for Porsche, regulation changes to 'level the playing field' only tested their resolve and ingenuity. The Porsche 917 was rendered obsolete by late 1972 with rule changes to the World Sportscar Championship now geared for prototypes. Without sufficient time to respond to complete a build program, Porsche switched their attention to the European GT Championship, developing still further the successfull 2.7 RS. If ever there was justice, it prevailed in early 1973 when a Porsche 2.8 RSR, virtually 'out of the box', won the 24hrs of Daytona - a field littered with Prototypes. Unsurprisingly, it totally dominated European GTs (considering its 911 underpinnings, a remarkable achievement). The 911 RSR derivatives would remain a 'nemesis' to manufacturers for a decade. Porsche entries won all of the 'blue ribbon' events - Le Mans, Daytona, Sebring, etc. with regularity.
Based on a 1984 3.2 Carrera this Carrara RS Replica is a great homage to the legendary Porsche Carrera RS cars that have now become unobtainable for so many in the current market.
Externally the car has undergone a full body restoration and paint job and is in Porsche viper green by WCC restoration specialists. The suspension has been lowered as in period on the rear with new torsion bars and set up in a fast road specification. With the addition of a full Dansk stainless steal exhaust original Fuchs wheels running continental tyres the car really looks the part.
Inside the car has been fitted with a full RS light weight carpet set and door cards and replica cobra RS light weight seats which really finish of the overall look of the car.
The engine has been very well look after by Porsche specialists throughout its life. Presented with a full service history, original tool kit, service books and manuals, old mots and a large amount of invoices the car comes full serviced with a new clutch and 12 months MoT.
A superb hat-tip to the iconic Carrera RS and offered at without reserve you have no excuse not to bid!
