I remember seeing it run as a red open-topped car at the Historics for years. And I knew the owner--Chuck Forge was a 914 guy as well. A really nice guy!
I had no idea that was the first Porsche to race at Le Mans!

They are saying it is the car that won its class at Le Mans in 1951 but in reality there is a one in 3 chance that this car won Le Mans, nobody knows because Porsche did not record the serial number. They packed them up and sent them to America in November 1951. Don't believe me ask the Gmund coupe expert Phil Carney.
