1974 PORSCHE 911S RACED BY PAUL NEWMAN 12 HOURS OF SEBRING 1977
Description
This is a very rare and special car with provenance. This car was raced by Paul Newman (the actor) during the 12 Hours of Sebring in 1977. This Porsche 911 was the subject of a multi -year restoration performed by a very well known Porsche race car shop in Wisconsin. The car is currently ready to race with some test miles on the 360 HP 3 liter engine.I realize that this 911 is an object of art and most likely will not be driven on a race course ever again, but one can only hope.
The car is in the Newman/ Freeman livery as raced in 1977 with the exception of the color. This car weighs in at a mere 2000 lbs and features all fiberglass RSR bodywork including doors, fenders, and decks. The vehicle is being sold with the 1977 body work included featuring the zues attached fenders all around. The spare bodywork is also included.
The race life of this car began in 1975 and was run competitively through the late 80's. This car was run in GTU GTO and O classes of IMSA. This car comes with a complete docier of the history, restoration, and ownership information including a Certificate Of Authenticity for the Newman Porsche 911 as well.
