‘FIRST IN CLASS’
The untold story of one Porsches most original factory-built race cars!
We are an independent classic Porsche specialist with over 35 years’ experience in the acquisition, restoration and preservation of historically important Porsches and It was during the creation of a noteworthy collection for one of our clients that we felt compelled to record the history of a very special car.
In Spring 2018 we were tasked with finding the impossible, a factory-built S-T that had raced successfully for several decades, with a documented history and had never crashed or been restored. Well incredibly we did just that!
The ‘First in Class’ book documents the amazing life of this incredible car.
The ‘First in Class’ book documents the amazing life of an incredible car and the , from its first appearance at Rally D’Italia, followed by 5 decades of European road and track races including 2 appearances at the Targa Florio (winning in class win in 1973). Then a succession or European track races and hill climbs
Chassis number 911 130 0721 was supplied by the Porsche Race Department on the 10th February 1971 and delivered to the Jolly Club ordered to M491 Race specification.
