    does any one know of a 73 2.4S RHD Viper Green imported from the UK?

    Hi All

    does any one know of a RHD Viper Green UK imported 73 2.4S coupe? I owner this car when I was young and nieve and and have been beating myself up for selling it. I believe it came to Australia early 1980s I owned it from 1986 to about 1988.

    There lies the conundrum 25 years latter I dont have any details which is sad. I have tried a number of sources Ie IAn Hamilton whom serviced it but to no avail.
    I believe there were only 6 73 2.4s cars in Australia does ther registry have a more accurate figure?

    Hi Graeme. I suggest you track down Hugh Hodges via the Australian TYP901 registry website - http://typ901.org/ - he is a veritable encyclopedia on Australian-delivered cars - seriously freaky & very helpful!

    i only have details of the cars ordered and delivered via Hamilton's the official Porsche distributor for Australia (and New Zealand for a lot of the time in the early years)
    there were 9 1973MY 2.4S coupes delivered here and another 6 targas. Only one of the Coupes was viper green.
    there were also 6 1972MY 2.4 S coupes delivered, again only one in viper - which was a "special" car as it was converted to RS specs by the local Porsche people using factory parts including 2.8 P&C before delivery to the first owner (a "special friend of the factory").
    however i dont have records of cars privately imported since then which your car seems to have been if it was originally a UK car. So sorry i cant help on that side.
