Wonder who did it in 1989, 35 years ago? Who were the specialists then, or maybe just done by an enthusiast.
Looks a nice car to me.

While we're on the subject, Aguttes Tour Auto sale featured ADAC championship 9114609108, the penultimate 3.0RS. Sold for €850k, €986k.

https://www.aguttes.com/lot/147039/2493 ... 30-rs-1974?

Sister Hahn / Dinkelacker 9114609089 sold for $440k at Quail back in 2016. Dinkelacker was served in the factory in period, so while working on your car keep it factory correct by getting bier-cooled

Bidding on 908/02.005 stalled at $4.1m, now asking $4.7m. $4.1m before a hefty premium seemed decent for the consignor given that 908/02.010 made $4.185m at Pebble Beach 2022. 908/02.005 sold for £2.185m at Bond St 2014 when the pound was still worth something ($3.475m)

Martini completed Porsche's first Le Mans podium lockout, Gérard Larrousse & Willi Kauhsen in the Hippie 917 (paintjob described by Jenks as vulger; he didn't always get it right) then Helmut Marko & Rudi Lins in 908/02.005

Is it legal to take bids off the wall under the reserve in the US? If so maybe it was that.
