Condition 

5

The car has undergone significant repairs and repainting following a 1974 accident, with replacement parts including the roof, doors, and fenders. There is bubbling on the bottom of the right door, and cracks in the dash pad. While mechanically it had an engine rebuild in 2005 and recent work on the fuel system, the cosmetic issues indicate it requires moderate reconditioning.

This Gulf Blue 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera RS is one of 1,580 examples produced, just 200 of which were outfitted in Lightweight M471 Sport specification.
