Hi Everyone
Well I was fourtante enough to stumble upon 9111300492 in a downtown Toronto underground where it had been collecting dust
for many years! I contacted the owner which was not an easy task and bought the car on the spot. Turns out the car has been sitting
in this location under a cover for a couple years. It was tucked away and not easy to locate and for the most part looked unassuming under a
old ratty car cover. Once the cover was pulled I could not believe my eyes!!! The car was extremely clean through out other then a few cob webs
it looked like it had just rolled off the dealer floor (minus the modifications for racing)
After quickly running to the bank, I dont carry that much cash on me I got things under way to move this car out from the labrynth it was stored in.
2 levels below at the base of the skydome (Jays baseball staduim) Since the car had not been run in some time I had to tow it up the numerous ramps.
I had fetched my trusty Durango and a few straps and went to work. I was a little worried about the brakes if the straps gave out on the ramps
My son followed close with wheel chocks in hand. With the added help of my father we made quick work of it. The car finally saw the light of day again!
I only know a limited amount about the car as I dealt mostly with owners personal assistant. So information was limited but I did obtain two CASC log books as well as I modifications and parts list.

From the title it looks like the car was imported from Germany in 1986 by a local motorsports/Garage.
my guess is it was used for racing in Germany and then brought here. This is only a guess from the list of previous
owners I made this assumption. Car is stamped/plated with CASC race number on the dash and cage.
I have contacted Porsche to get more information and will update when I get that information. As it stands now I have two
race cars now a 1976 911s IROC style and now this 1971 911s. I am going to have to chose one but at the time I could not pass
up on this car. I am always under the impression buy it and figure it out after! I will also post more indepth pictures once I get it out
and up on a hoist.
Cheers
