Price On Application


Not often does a 1973 Porsche RSR Carrera come up for sale these days. With the great increase in demand for them, they have become very scarce and hard to find. Here is a car that is equally at home on the racetrack, on a historic rally or even on the street!

Chassis number 911 360 1113 is even rarer than most RSRs, being one of those lucky few cars that, having seen relatively little action on the tracks (we think!), has retained all of it's original patina, including the Brumos paint scheme it first wore. Inside the front compartment is mounted the ATL fuel cell that Brumos had fitted to all the RSRs that passed through their hands.

The engine in this RSR is interesting in itself; it is an early “Works” RSR 3-liter unit, on throttle slide injection with, of course, the usual Bosch twin plug ignition system. It is also fitted with Porsche center lock wheels. Should the new owner wish to take the car back to RSR 2.8 specification (high butterfly injection, 5-stud wheel fixing), he will find that, after selling the 3-liter engine and the center lock wheel fixings, he will not be out of pocket!

We know, through previous research, that this car, after having been delivered to Brumos from the factory in May 1973, sold to Hector Rebaque of Mexico City in or around late 1973. Hector Rebaque let his “hired gun” Momo Rojas share the car with Peter Gregg in the Daytona Finale of that year, where they finished 8th overall, the car wearing race number 95, a reversal of Gregg's usual “59” Brumos number.

After this, the trail goes cold, but the car may be the one raced by Roberto Quintanilla and then sold to Wilson Fittipaldi. It then re-appeared in California in 1983, having been sold to the Blackhawk Collection. It was sold to Europe and re-appeared for sale again at the Blackhawk Collection in 2005, where I inspected it for the present owner.

It appears to have had very little race use, is remarkably original and is ready for whatever use the new owner wants it for.
