This Porsche 911 S/RSR was a 2.4-liter 911 S when new in 1972, and then subsequently built and up-rated to 1974 IMSA 3.0 RSR specification. It was raced in period by Tim Selby and Earl Rowe. Factory parts for the racing upgrades were purchased directly from Frau Behr at Porsche AG. Many correct parts were used in the upgrading of the car. The suspension is Blistein RSR-type with front and rear coil-over shocks, and the wheels are 9x15 in the front and 11x15 in the rear. There is a Type 915 five-speed gearbox and an RSR spray bar, oil pump and oil cooler, and the transaxle carries a limited-slip differential.
The car raced at the 12 Hours of Sebring at least three times (1981-1983), where it finished as high as 2nd in GTO and 7th overall in 1981.
In 2011, this car was offered for sale at the Monterey, CA auction presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $200,000-$250. Bidding reached $190,000 but was not enough to satisfy the car's reserve. It would leave the auction unsold.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2011
