This rare S model 911 was purchased new by marathon runner Jim Montgomery from Brumos Porsche in Jacksonville, Florida in 1972. Jim nicknamed his unique Gemini Blue Metallic car 'Blubell' on delivery. It was then loaded onto the Queen Elizabeth II for a trip back to Europe so Jim could explore roads less traveled and attend the Munich Olympics. On their return, Jim drove this car daily and over the ensuing years made trips to three more Olympic Games - Montreal in 1976, Los Angeles in 1984 and Atlanta in 1996. A collector of vintage brass musical instruments, Jim also used Blubell to retrieve 685 horns from all over the United States.

After accumulating over 651,000 miles, Jim partnered with his old friend and Porsche specialist J. David Glenn to perform a ground-up restoration. David and colt Ellenwood, completely rebuilt all the components and the interior was sent to Germany for renovation. All Porsche original parts were used in the restoration that lasted for three years.
