From club racers to World Championships the 911 would become an integral part.

It was originally supplied new in Germany by Porsche dealer, Gottfried Schultz, where it remained until the 1990s when it was purchased by a Dutch collector. The restoration, at some stage, included the replacement of the engine case of the correct type 911/02, signifying a 1970/71 2.2S. It's also stamped AT' which indicates it is a factory replacement and bears the engine no. 6302110 which is confirmed as the original matching engine number.
