Thanks for posting. I think this car is great. I'm sure it's not the original colour but super nice!

What makes you so sure?
Just guessing I didn't think that Porsche did early pre impact bummers with that colour and the Porsche lettering across the side? However, I'm making a complete guess!
As I said it's looks like a super looking car to me.

Freshly restored by Clark & Carter I was informed. No affiliation at all but car looked superb on the day (even Ferryman's photography doesn't do it justice )
One family owned from new, the son now owns the car bought new by his father.

Blutorange (Tangerine) was the period factory race/rally colour, but wasn't used after 1973 on standard production cars. The decals on the side were pretty generic for SWB and LWB competition cars, and a standard factory option.

Well, if that was the son driving around in it all day no wonder he had such a grin on his face. Lucky blighter!
Is there inheritage tax on cars? I guessing their is and a car like this is above the threshold!!
