The car was delivered new in April 1972, via MAHAG in Munich to the well-known Bavarian driver Anton (Toni) Fischaber.
Fischaber competed successfully in motorsport between 1959-1987, taking at least 200 victories in mountain hill climbs and at race-tracks; as a Porsche works driver he was team-mates with Gerhard Mitter and while at Abarth, with Hans Hermann. Fischaber entered this car, when brand-new, into the 1972 European Hill Climb Championship. The Championship included ten races, held in France, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy and Spain. Having previously won the same championship in 1967 in a 2.0 911S, Fischaber won his second international title in this car in 1972. Additionally, in 1972, Fischaber entered the biggest and what was considered at the time, the most important race in Germany, the 1000kms race at Nürburgring. Together with Prince Leopold Von Bayern, Fischaber came 14th Overall.
In 1973, he defended the championship yet was unable to win that year, although he finished 14th overall, once again with Prince Von Bayern, in the 1000kms race at the Nürburgring.
However, 1974 brought triumph once more and Fischaber won his third European Hill Climb Championship title - for the second time in this car.
During those three years, in order to remain competitive the car was uprated for the 1973 season to 2.8 ltr capacity, wider wheels and a ducktail rear spoiler and again to 3.0 capacity for 1974.
At the end of the 1974 season Anton Fischaber placed an advert in the magazine ‘Powerslide’ in order to sell the car. # 911 230 1195 found a new home in Switzerland. Stored for many years, in 2008/9 the car was sold via Elevenparts in Switzerland, by Peter Heuri to the UK, into one of the most significant Porsche collections. Still wearing its RSR bodywork modifications, none-the-less the car / chassis remained unrestored and extremely original – the actual 1972 and 1974 European Hill Climb Championship winning car.
