1973 Porsche 911 Vintage Race Car (Streetable) for Sale for $60K

Nevada car, no rust ever, looking for new home...

• Go Vintage Racing next week!
• A great R Gruppe (Group) car as it sits.
• Restore to it's original stock configuration? Many critical original parts available

This is a well-prepared race car that can be (and is) driven on the street, although the ride is very firm. The rebuilt engine and transmission are still fresh, the custom Fuchs wheels allow the narrow-body to be lowered, and the suspension is already dialed in. The floor pan and body panels are all excellent, and the many modifications were done using the best components. I bought this car to go racing, for the first time ever. This sale is part of a general house cleaning - anything not used in years. It has been in my climate-controlled shop under my house for 12 years, while my daily driver sits in an unheated garage.

Notice the fresh air ram box that replaces the original air mixer. It forces fresh air from the cowl area directly through the tubing into the interior. The original mix box is included in the parts.

The battery is in the "smuggler's cavity"
