Description:


944 GTR Turbo IMSA GTO RACE CAR This Porsche race car was specially built under contract for Porsche Motorsports by Dave Klem of Fabcar. The chassis serial number is 007. This car is the 7th factory race 944 manufactured. This car is the only race 944 built to IMSA GTO specifications. It was delivered to Al Holbert, the North American Porsche Motorsports director at the time. Al Holbert had several Porsche test drivers test and develop this car over a couple of years. At that time Electrodyne was competing very favorable in IMSA GTO and needed a new car to remain competitive. Al Holbert agreed that Electrodyne could take this car and campaign it in GTO to enhance Porsche’s image. Al Holbert was killed in an air plane crash in the late 80’s just about the time Porsche decided to cease selling the 944 family of vehicles. 6 previous models were delivered and sold to individual race teams to compete in the SCCA Trans Am Series. There are a tremendous amount of spares including 2 engines (one to go in the car and other spare), sufficient engine spares for at least another engine, plenty of rebuild parts, wheels, complete spare suspension pieces. We had enough spares to rebuild anything that broke more than once.
