For a few years I drive rally´s now with a Peugeot 205. Because front wheel drive isn´t that much fun I want to switch to rear wheel drive and switch to historic rallying. Because I was always a 911 fan for me it only can be a 911. I build the Peugeot myself so I´m familiair with the fact that building anything yourself is more expensive then buying one that is already build op to your wishes. But... the knowledge I got from building the car saved me several times from an early end of a rally. So for money sake its beter to buy someone else's already build car but for knowledge and the satisfaction of driving YOUR car is best to build yourself. And i like the work too...

I found out that these car were ever homologated and thus be suitable for building as a rally car.

My idea is to build a car early 70´s car. Sure the nicest cars are the 2.7 or 3.0 rs (yes that one is homologated under the same number), but that might be too expensive for me or...

The only thing a rs has to do is comply to the homologation, so in group 4, there a lot of things that can be replaced for not original parts because those parts are "free" in group 3 much less is possible and the car has to come close to an original. The one thing that has to be exactly the same as the original is the body work, suspension, motor. I´m now figuring out what parts where only used on the rs and what parts were used on other models and might be easier to get.

The second idea is to buy one of the early 70´s cars that need restoration but is very original and just build a rally car from that one. No other parts needed except from the rally parts like rollover cage, seats, seat belts fire extinguisher, etc. Those parts can be new. advantage here is that a car like this can be used in a new historic group 1/3 YS here in the Netherlands.

And I want at least near 200 hp (180-190 is ok too).

I have some questions:
- is anyone on this form experienced with this?
- does anyone have on or more of the homologation forms above? maybe digitally
- what do you think about the idea and do you have some good tips or tricks for me?
- does anyone know a already build early 70´s rally that need some or a lot of work that it is for sale?
- any comment on this?
