Offered for sale is a one of a kind tribute to the 1973 Targa Flora winning Martini Racing Porsche 911 RSR Supper Carrera.  This vintage race car started life as a 1971 Porsche 911 T.  It is a completely rust free chassis from the south west. It was fully restored in 2011 and has a clear title. here is its story:
I have been racing in IMSA since 1977 and competed in the Daytona 24 hr until 2000. fielding Porsches for many of those years. I purchased this car in August of 2009. At the time. I thought it was just an old race car sitting in a warehouse in Glendale AZ. The seller told me he bought it for a project for himself and his son. His son had since gone on to college. and had subsequently moved away. without the racing project ever getting underway.
The car was perfect for what I was looking for (a vintage Porsche race car that needed a home). At the time. the car was painted yellow red and black. For some reason I thought the car seemed familiar to me but I could not put my finger on it. We started the restoration with the hope of tracking down some history along the way.  and bringing the car to a perfect period correct racer.  
The car was already equipped for the 915 transmissions so we did a full rebuild on a limited slip 915. and installed that in the car. The car was already equipped with Bilstein coil overs in the front with a proper sway bar. Bilsteins were also installed in the rear of the car.  
Mechanical restoration complete. it was time to test the car on the track. The car ran and drove incredibly well. The down force from the rear fenders is fantastic. On my first outing I thought there was something wrong with the other cars on the track.  as they were going so slow. As it turns out. I just had a completely dialed in car.  
After that call I knew precisely what livery to run on the car. I dismantled the car and set about making as true a tribute as humanly possible to the 1973 MARTINI RACING Porsche 911. After months of research. hundreds of calls. and many more hours of labor. the result is what you see here. Faithfully replicated to the smallest detail. this is a true time machine. Perfect for any collection. vintage event or PCA DE.
