Hi folks,
Born in Germany, raced hard for 10 years, and then rested for 30. Now this little boy is visiting the US for the very first time after a 3-year makeover. We're very happy and very lucky that he found our home.
One of only four Gulf Blue lightweight RS's Porsche ever produced.
Excellent !!!!!!
Nice color on an RS.......

Wonderful car! More photos and history, please
Wow, that's a beauty! :)

Thanks for the pics, Longranger!!!!
ESPECTACULAR.
I believe that Blackbird/Finecars car is still for sale. (-;
Past owner history is a bit off.
Very nice car, so it has an aluminum replacement block?
Want to know more about the ALU case. Is it a 7R 2.7 ALU case or a 3.0 SC case. I've seen one ALU 2.7 case and built another, pretty rare. G
Are the early 74 series 2.7's Siluminium? Is that the same?
No, Production cases are Mag until Turbos and 3.0 Carreras in 75-76, die cast Alu. 3.0 RS's are sand cast Alu. Yes Siluminium is Alu, not sure if sand cast and die cast are both referred to as Siluminium. G.Led
Hi folks, just to clarify, the prior owners of my car did not post about it on the web. So if you see something about 9113600810 that's not from me, it's not my car.
What is that car in Hong Kong that LongRanger posted? Your guess is as good as mine. That is not the car I bought from the owner in Germany.
Here are photos of the engine in 9113600810...
So it is a case of one VIN#, 2 cars???
(great car by the way)
Olivier.
Beautiful car and history.
Is someone like Hugh or Brian tracking the fraudulent examples out there?
Clearly different cars looking at engine bay, rear slam panel etc.....both look gorgeous though!
First reaction on the Hong Kong car was were are the battle scars? Plus the obvious things like doorcard, clock delete plug, rear slamp panel and no pictures of VIN numbers and other important details. That is not an oil sump plate. Plus the color looks way off...I believe Bill!
Cheers,
Cees
Love it!!! My favorite Porsche. :)
Here are a few more photos of 9113600810 in California today. The car was 99.9% complete when I received it. The following items should be on the car (according to Carrera RS book) although the German restorer felt lightweights do not have them:
1. Door trim for door panels.
2. Glove compartment lid.
3. Shift boot.
4. Cigarette lighter.
5. Rear-window heater switch (may have a plug on some cars).
What an awesome car!
John was very gracious to show 9113600810 at the local Cars & Coffee today. Also, he was generous to allowed nerdy, nosey early 911 hounds like me to take detailed pictures.

Is this the car for sale at CPR in Fallbrook ?
I love the blue
I think there are two different cars on the thread, similar but not the same car.
The Early 911S Registry at its most gracious, generous best.
Hi guys, that's my car! I decided to keep 123 and sell 810. Can't afford to own two RSs! Car is original and all numbers matching as you can see in the above photos. This is not the car you see advertised on the web. One of only 4 authentic Gulf Blue lightweights.
Ya know, if you want pressure fed tensioners, the proper right side hose is available from 964 3.3 turbo.
Thanks! I'm sure the next owner will appreciate this info.
I see the car has resurfaced, I would like more info on the numbers matching part-is this the car seen in the photos above with the clearly re-stamped case and type number or am I missing something here? Another car in Hong Kong?Quote:

Do someone has the contact of the owner of the real #810?
There is a new clone in Italy now in restoration...
Original in California
Clone in Hong Kong
Clone in Italy
What a shame!

In 2013, did the car still have its original engine (at least the crankcase)? In what conditions had it arrived in 2013?
Has it been appraised by anyone from Porsche?
Around (Hong Kong and Italy) there are at least two others with those engine and chassis numbers.
Not the first time I've seen an RS with a 1979 engine lid latch panel.
For sale... so is this the American one, Italian, or Hong Kong...
I see that this has a roll cage which the American or Hong Kong car does not... and supposedly owned by the original owner/racer until 2013?
The only thing that is sure is.. there are at least 2 fakes.
1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS 2.7 Lightweight (M471)
POA
The 1973 RS was the Homologation-Series 911 Porsche had to build in order to qualify its pure racing 2.8-litre 911 RSR for Group 5 competition. The FIA mandated that at least 500 examples of the RS were required, so Porsche set to work.
Two versions were offered, both based on the 1973 911S 2.4 coupe, a touring version M472, which retained much of the interior trim and features of the standard car and a Lightweight/Sport option M471 was the racing-oriented basis for the RSR.
One of 200 M471 RS Lightweights produced, the early history of chassis 9113600810 is well known. 0810 was delivered new in 1973 to German Rally Ace Heinz Walter Schewe in the rare and desirable special-order colour code 328, Gulf Blue.
The comprehensive history file for 0810 contains original factory invoices from 1976, an important year for Schewe and his RSL. Schewe would win the German Rally Championship outright in 1976 with a number of Porsche 911 Carreras at his disposal & would go on to own chassis 0810 for 40 years until 2013.
Chassis 0810 was used to compete in Wales at the 24th Lombard RAC Rally in November 1976 with co-driver Franz-Josef Moormann as car #44. On file are the original invoices for RAC Rally preparation carried out at the factory in Stuttgart just prior to the event. This also includes the invoices for a factory replacement type 915 gearbox and clutch. Schewe would not complete the Rally after crashing out. Our expert investigations into the originality of the car with a well-known and respected UK based Porsche specialist confirms this major event in 0810s competition past prior to it being completely restored by Schewe to the condition it is presented in today with a correct for a 1973 RS type 911/83 but non-matching engine.
Previously registered and correctly documented by the German authorities including a TUV certificate, now currently registered in the UK as 9113600810 and is offered complete with FIA HTP ‘Appendix K’ papers Period: H1 – 1972 to 1975 for racing, rally and hill climb valid until December 2029.
Therefore, chassis 0810 with its important period competition history complete with its original documentation has the potential to be campaigned at major historic events such as Mont Ventoux, Modena Cento Ore and Tour Auto etc and would be a welcome entrant at concours events Worldwide.
