Finished in a stunning and suitably period Ivory White with black decals, this track inspired S/T specification S is in superb cosmetic order having recently emerged from a comprehensive 2 year restoration by Porsche specialist Maxted Page and Prill.

Specific to this car is its Group 4 GT spec lightweight bodywork, with flared arches to suit wider Fuchs alloy wheels, ST bumpers and Makrolon windows.
INTERIOR
Considering the broad operating bracket of such an example, the cabin has been sympathetically updated with safety in mind but pleasingly retains its character and originality where possible – dials, switch gear and controls remain untouched finished with a magnificent MOMO prototipo wheel. The Recaro seats, barely used and in excellent order, are equipped with Schroth harnesses whilst the roll cage features removable door bars for easier access to and from the track.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The car is supplied with two engines; the recently rebuilt and original matching numbers unit and a spare bespoke 3.0 powerhouse – currently fitted to the car. The engine in situ was supplied by renowned American Porsche specialist – Supertec Performance of California. The specification is quite stunning, an open cheque book exercise with a 95mm Mahle RSR piston and cylinder set, Micro polished 3.0 knife edge crank and a complete custom MFI system; the end result an impressive 310bhp @ 7,100 rpm.

A Bursch race exhaust header completes this competition special – a perfect promotion of the unmistakable and wholly captivating flat 6 engine note. Exhaust caps are also included according to taste / requirements. Full correspondence, specification and invoicing of the Supertec engine is included in the history file alongside the recent rolling road print out.
The drivetrain has also been treated to a series of no expense spared upgrades – RSR 915 gearbox nose with oil pump and spray bar, rebuilt LSD and a new clutch ensure performance and longevity in equal measure.
WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The Fuchs wheel design is symbolic amongst classic Porsche variants and although ST’s often ran minilites in period there could only be one choice for the purist. Used extensively in Europe and North America on street and track, these FiA approved Braid Fuchs look every inch the part with suitably upgraded rigidity and strength matched to period Michelin rubber.

The entire braking system has been replaced and upgraded where possible whilst suspension hardware has had similar attention; everything has been removed, stripped, inspected, cleaned and powder coated to as new condition.
