    That is a special car for certain. A special gearbox! I really want to learn it's serial # for my research into these gearboxes. The paint badge should have a double row paint code, and there were two versions; also useful for my research.
    If you need help with translations and option codes, I can help with that.

Here's my questions, this car was a fully loaded special order by Mr William Marsh of Muncie Indiana and completed production on 12/10/69. From the build sheet this Porsche was order with exactly everything Marsh wanted on the car and considering that it probably took a few months to reach Muncie it appears that only kept it 6-8 months(?). It's just a mystery to me why someone would order such a special car and keep it such a short time. Does anyone know the William Marsh family that might be able to put me in contact with them learn more about the history of this car. Thanks, Glenn
