The Porsche 914/6 was envisioned as a budget-friendly alternative to the 911, and between 1969 through 1972, a total of 3,350 examples were built. The standard trim proved an inadequate competitor, however, the GT conversion kit gave privateers the competitive edge they desired. The GT kit added 911 S brakes, an additional front oil cooler, wider wheels, steel fender flares, several body panels rendered in fiberglass, extra chassis reinforcement, a plexiglass rear window, a lightweight interior, and a padded leather steering wheel. A 2.0-liter Carrera 6 engine boosted output to 212 horsepower and was backed by a five-speed dogleg transmission of the contemporary 911 S, which was modified with the input shaft, exchangeable second gear, and limited-slip differential from the Porsche 904.At the 24 Hours of LeMans in 1970, a 914/6 GT placed 6th overall and won the 2.0-liter GT class. This accomplishment was made even more impressive considering its 45th place start off the grid. This particular example chassis 32, the first of 16 factory-prepared 914/6 examples produced in 1970. After completion at Porsche's Werk 1 facility in Zuffenhausen, the car was delivered new to Swiss resident Gustav 'Gusti' Schlup, vice president of the vibrant Ecurie Biennoise racing team.
It is believed that this example is the first of the 16 customer examples built, however, its delivery date was delayed due to the evolving list of requirements added by its owner. Among the list of options were a 110-liter fuel tank, additional dash-mounted gauges for fuel and transmission oil temperature, and thicker anti-roll bars.
