Description

1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS– Outlaw / Clone **VIN 9116200267**

In the early 1970s, orsche sought to build on the success of its world-beating Type 917 endurance prototypes by developing the Porsche 911 Carrera RS. The legendary Carrera RS, idely regarded as one of the greatest – if not the greatest – dual-purpose Porsches ever was available in both the M472 Touring and M471 Lightweight forms. Like the Carrera RS M471 Lightweight, ur version is a stripped-down Porsche 911 that weighs approximately 2,100 lbs. and features lightweight interior body panels and seats, inimal body trim, ive-speed manual transmission, ndependent front and rear suspension, nd four-wheel disc brakes. The wheelbase measures at 2,268 mm. Our model is a 2,687 cc (2.7L) SOHC air-cooled horizontally opposed six-cylinder power plant that also uses 90-mm aluminum barrels coated with Nikasil (Nickel-silicon carbide) for improved lubrication and wear characteristics. Fiberglass was installed for the engine cover as well as for the front and rear bumpers. The RS’s trademark feature – the “ducktail” rear spoiler – was added to the engine cover after wind-tunnel testing had demonstrated that it was very effective at increasing high-speed stability by reducing rear-end lift. The rear-folding seatbacks, un visors, nd radio were removed. The standard armrests and latch handles were replaced with simple plastic pull handles and pull-cord door releases. (See accompanying photos.)
