This Porsche Type 934/5 Competition Coupe was the 28th example produced by Porsche. It was delivered new to its first owners, Losch and Nicholas Kobb, in 1976 fitted with options 185 and 248 and finished in yellow livery. Knoob was a Belgian privateer who performed both owner and driver duties. The car was raced only once, at Zolder, before it was sold at the end of the 1976 season to Hans Christian Jurgensen of Flensburg, Germany. Over the next three years, he actively campaigned the car with much success, often finishing in the top three places.
Near the close of 1979, the car was sold to Puerto Rican enthusiast Armando Gonzales who sent it to Chuck Gaa of Atlanta Georgie. Gaa fitted the car with a stiffer roll-cage structure and a high-mounted gearbox to reduce drive-shaft angularity. Gonzales raced the car for the following three seasons, including at LeMans, before selling to Kikos Fonseca.
While in Fosenca's care, the car was raced in IMSA and South American events. At some point during this time period, updates were made, converting it to a 935-style nose and tail with air scoop penetrating the rear screen to feed air to the intercooler.
In 1988 it was sold at auction. In the early 1990s, the car was registered for road use and driven on the public highways. It was exchanged in 1994 for a Ferrari 275 GTB/4. The new owner stripped the car in preparation for a restoration which did not occur. Instead, it was sold to Jim Torres of Burbank Coachworks who eventually restored it fully in 1999. Upon completion, it was brought to venues such as Daytona and Willow Springs where it exercised at the blistering speeds it was capable of achieving.
In 2008, this Type 934/5 Competition Coupe was brought to the 'Quail Lodge, A Sale of Exceptional Motorcars and Automobilia' presented by Bonhams Auction where it was estimated to sell for $375,000 - 425,000. It would leave the auction unsold.By Daniel Vaughan | Dec 2008
