    Help PPI 73 RSR 491 in Europe

    A friend of mine is looking into buying a 1973 911RSR type 491 in Europe. Would any of you guys recommend a professional that could assist with inspection and purchase of such a car(or similar collectable Porsche).

    Best

    hi john,

    i can't recommend most of the other well known experts, they
    are getting a bad reputation because of selling fake cars.

    In Switzerland, Johnny Chatillon had 2 authentic 2.8 RSR the last 10 years. He was hired in the jury of elegance concourses by the president of Club Porsche de France because of his knowledges in Classic 911 from 1965 to 1974. He knows every screws of RSR. And by the way, he still have NOS parts to build at least 2 complete RSR engines... Visiting his «safe» his quite an experiment!

    Is the color original to this car? If yes then it could be VIN 915 or 1155 but now with black instead red Carrera lettering. 784 is an original Gulf Blue RS but RHD..
