Chassis No.300617 was originally delivered on March 1965, painted in Light Ivory with a black/grey interior with the only options fitted to it to be the Webasto gas heater and a set of Dunlop radial tires.
This is not your average classic 911 race car, but then again, how average can the iconic Porschereally be?
The car was handed over to Peter Klasen to create the project ‘007’, which was completed in 2009. Art cars rarely show up in auctions, with Janis Joplin’s own psychedelic painted 356recently sold for a hefty $1.76 million.
Under the unusual paintjob, this 911 is a fully prepped race car with a FIA HTP plus it’s only one of the 3,154 911s built in 1965. The 2.0-litre boxer makes 190hp with the kind help of two triple-throat Weber 40 IDS carburetors while the gearbox is a five-speed manual.
The car will be auctionedin RM Sotheby’s Monaco event on May 14 without reserve.
