user 'moito' is the rear panel expert so you can see some of his threads on this subject but IMO the answers are:

1. Mid '73
2. '78 MY (911 SC)

[210bhp]

I’m going to say,

May73 and
June78

. . . Factory-finished in Grand Prix White over Black Leatherette, this rare example is a desirable first-series M471 Lightweight, which was originally equipped with a limited-slip differential (M220), retractable radio antenna and loudspeakers (M440), and Dunlop tires.

Delivered new in Germany in December 1972, this Porsche was serviced during the 1980s by a marque specialist garage, Roitmayer GmbH of Munich, where the car was updated with Carrera RSR-specification bodywork and RSR-type brakes, and the engine was enlarged to 2.9 liters. During the same decade, the M471 Lightweight was also reportedly acquired by Thomas Reichel of Germany. Subsequently, the Carrera was exported to the US, and by early 1991, Bob Jordan of Illinois had taken ownership, per an accompanying copy of a letter dated February 11, 1991, from Jürgen Barth – the former Le Mans-winning driver and staff member of the Customer Racing department of Porsche AG. The numbers in that letter – as well as on the car’s accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity – correspond to both this chassis (9113600196) and this engine (6630219).

According to a copy of the Bill of Sale on file, the consignor acquired the M471 Lightweight in May 2003 from noted Porsche collector and dealer David Mohlman. Shortly thereafter, he commissioned RennSport Racing of New Orleans to restore this example to its factory-correct livery and specification. During 2004 and 2005, the Porsche was disassembled down to the bare body shell, the front and rear fenders were returned to their factory-original Carrera RS “narrow” configuration, and the mechanical systems were rebuilt and restored. The potent flat-six engine was rebuilt to its factory-correct 2.7-liter displacement, the gearbox was rebuilt, and proper brakes were installed. Grand Prix White Glasurit paint was used to refinish the exterior of the car, accented by factory-specified Green “Carrera” lettering and matching wheels, which were expertly restored and correctly refinished by noted expert Harvey Weidman.

Currently riding on period-correct Pirelli CN36 radial tires, the Carrera RS retains correct bucket seats, lightweight door panels, and Glaverbel lightweight glass. Extensive photographs document the restoration work performed by RennSport Racing . . .
