During his seven-year ownership, upon arrival in Germany, the decision was taken to create an accurate RSR replica using the 911T as a basis and this work was entrusted to Scuderia-Eleven with the engine left in the capable hands of Bienert Boxer-Motoren, who have over 25 year’s experience in preparing air-cooled Porche engines. The specification is too long to detail here but briefly; Original engine type 911/51 (2.4 Litre, 140bhp) replaced with 1974/75, 911/41 engine taken out to 2.8-litres, compression ratio 10.8: 1 producing 265 bhp with mechanical fuel injection, and dual ignition. Five-speed, ‘short-shift’ 915 gearbox and a ZF LSD. Front strut-brace, adjustable front shocks, adjustable front and rear anti- roll bars, front and rear polyurethane axle bushes, thicker torsion bars, and steel braided brake lines. Front tyres: 215/55 R1, rear tyres 270/45 R15. Wheels front: 9Jx15 and rear 11Jx15. The bumpers, front and rear bonnets and the wings were replaced with composite parts. ‘Makrolon’ polycarbonate side and rear windows. Welded-in multi point roll cage. Sports steering wheel, sports seats with full harnesses and aluminium footplates. The final set-up was completed by Kadach.com for Harry Utesche at DLS Automobile in Stuttgart. The previous owner, a well-known racing driver who has raced RSRs in the past, admits “There is no excuse or way to avoid the fact that I fell completely in love with this car some time before it came to market. For me, it was the perfect looking, quintessential 911”. Having owned the car for seven years he confirmed, “It is THE most tactile, malleable and sweet performer on the circuit with very much the right amount of power matching the grip available with a performance not so far from the delightful racetrack- only Chevron B8s etc. Around Spa and Monza, it was just pure racing delight”. Enjoyed by the current owner for the past couple of years the time has now come for someone else to enjoy this special motor car. The new owner of this wonderful 911 has a number of options. It’s a legal and perfectly usable road car, although, with a full competition suspension set-up, it wouldn’t be long before you became good friends with your chiropractor, it could be developed into a pure, no-holds-barred, full house racer, or left as it is, an ‘on-the- button’ entry for some of Europe’s most prestigious events including Tour Auto, Spa Classic, and the Monza Historic. Finished in sparkling Grand Prix White, this immaculate Porsche is accompanied by its UK V5C, MOT Certificate, DMSB Historic Technical Passport, and an inspection report from Gunther Frey. Dipl.Ing (FH). The car’s FIA papers were issued in 2012 and are therefore still current. It would probably cost over £200,000 to prepare a car to this spec today and, at this guide, we feel that this stunning road/ race 911 represents tremendous value for money and welcome any inspection. 1973 Porsche 911 2.8 RSR FIA Historic GT Race Car LOT 206 More Images Lot 206 Bid On Lot 206
