The car was purchased by me in 2004 and was prepred to rally spec to replace my stolen rally car in 2006. However another car was acquired and the 970 was never rallied and has been dry stored since 2006.    It has been restored carefully over the last 2 years as a road car using all new mechanical parts. but with many competition upgrades in period with the car which were fitted in 2006 such as all brake. fuel. and battery lines inside.
Engine fully stripped. cleaned and "S" crank and rods balanced with flywheel and rebuilt by Southam Mini and Metro Centre using Omega pistons. Swiftune SW5 camshaft. ew 12G940 unleaded head. ltralite flywheel.           They also completely rebuilt the 4 syncro "S" gearbox. giving a very usable drivable car.                                                                                                                                                                                                                          The engine is in the process of running in so just like a new car from the showroom.
Standard 1inch and1/4 H2 SU's. LCB manifold and RC40 twin box exhaust.     Competition drive shafts with Hardy Spicer couplings.
