Without having a closer look I think the wheels are wrong for a start .... :)

I was told you need to look at the rear arch lip: looks fine to me :) .

One has to be somewhat carefull before spending one's pennies on a RS. I would be querying the colour of the front indicators (is it an Italian spec, perhaps?). Also, is there a SABELT 1973 (or late 1972) label on the red seat belts? Finally, I wonder wether the car still retains the original three prong centre caps on the -evidently- refurbished alloys. That would be a nice touch, IMHO.

Kind regards.

Bert

More convincing than some, but it seems to have been re-shelled at sometime is the past, so it opens up that old debate.

So nice to see a set of Cibie Pallas properly fitted too.

Well, the engine has a red shroud........... and the aero package looks reasonably close as well.

Are those the fabled Unobtanium wipers ?

I think that you maybe mistaken - they look more like K.C.Daylighters to me.

Never realised I owned an RS once (my first car) and in that colour too :shock:

1972 LHD 2.4T with '73 2.4T CIS motor - gone to a new DDK home
1994 RHD 993 Carrera - gone!
1968 LHD 911L - was the Wife's but now in new hands :-(
