@Lightweight_911 like the engine in your 904 tribute?

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
So it seems the best 993 RSs are half a million quid now.
https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/199 ... rrera-rs-2
Madness or makes total sense compared to the 2.7 RS?
I really fancy a[nother] 996 RS but shudder at £150k when the last one I had was <£50k.
But maybe they’re still great value, considering they made half as many as they did of the 993…

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
Had a very yellow one in my hilclimb class when they first came out. Rob was well off..
I had my 911, so no contest, but it was not all that fast.
Came from the dealer with suspension blocks in place, hence a very hard ride at the front...
Went quicker once that was sorted. Ended up with a butcher by trade I think who had the welded cage cut out for kids in the back, but a long time ago now.

If you mean Robert Lancaster-Gaye Graham, it was a 996 RSR

Re: Porsche for sale of the day..........
Nope, a 993 RSR, about 1993?
I don't keep a tally on all the 'modern' derivatives!
His name was Rob Welch and the RSR was Blue, not yellow. (my mistake, wife knows best)
Reg was 'RSR xx'
IIRC he packed it in after a few years or less with the car.
As to Robert, isn't he going to try an Alpine 110 this year Wayne?

Results from Amelia Island
Original 31k miles '58 Coupe 102648 sold for $230k, $258k with buyer's premium (est. $250 - $325k). The market saw through the missing torsion bar cover and other details and surmised it was the real deal. Strong money by today's standards but no pushrod A Coupe record
https://bid.goodingco.com/lots/view/1-8 ... 56-a-coupe
Still 'Wird eingefahren!' - 'Being run-in!'
718024 passed at $3.2m (est. $3.5 – $4.5m) having been unsold against estimate $4.5 - $5.5m Pebble Beach ’22. Note the Broad Arrow listing gives a dropped valve as the reason for the '59 Le Mans DNF, as opposed to the broken crank reported at Pebble Beach
https://www.broadarrowauctions.com/vehi ... ybelle-iii
European hill-climb RS61 718076 sold after auction at high bid $3.1m (est. $4 – $5m)
https://bid.goodingco.com/lots/view/1-8 ... rsche-rs61
Defying gravity at $2m, $2.205m (est. $1.8 – 2.2m) ’66 Carrera 6 906127 was deemed a good one, surpassing last year’s Taki racing 906120 $2.04m at Monterey and $0.7m more than 906017 we saw at the Six auction. 906127 was sold by Road Scholars via BaT for $2m, $2.0075m in 2023
“original owner, [Munich VW-Porsche dealer and hill-climber] Sepp Greger visited the project to advise on the work, thereby helping to address numerous original details, such as the reinstallation of the pedals that he had drilled out for additional lightness in 1966—something that he commented may have been for naught, as they had forgotten to sweep out the metal shavings and thus no weight was actually saved.”
https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/mi24 ... -6/1446181
Sonauto ’68 T/R 11820807 sold at $420k, $467k with buyer’s premium (est. $450k - $600k), exactly the same price as the Kline T/R we saw at Amelia last year, this time with ’69 Le Mans history thrown in
https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/mi24 ... tr/1447384
When Franco Lembo sold the car it was advertised as also having been the ’68 Le Mans T/R #44 and is still presented in its early Sonauto livery. ’68 #44 is now thought to be sister Sonauto T/R 11820779
11820807 in practice for Le Mans ’69, note the wheel combo
The '71 Monte Larrousse 914/6 GT 9141430141 passed at $1.1m (est. $1.2 - $1.5m). It last crossed the block at the 2009 Paris Retromobile where it passed against an estimate of €285 – €345k.
https://www.broadarrowauctions.com/vehi ... arlo-rally
Renn-Porsche diminishing returns; the premium for saving the weight of the glovebox door and coat hooks on Homologation RS 9113600508 was $110k.* Similar eye-watering weight savings can be achieved by circumcising the driver. Sold for $1.8m, $1.985m with buyers premium (est. $2 - $2.5m)
*compared with the Otis Chandler RSL we saw in December
