Used 1966 Porsche 910

1966 Porsche 910-001 The 1966 Porsche 910-001 was the first of 28 910 racers constructed. It was considered to be Porsche's great leap forward into racecar development incorporating Formula 1-style cast magnesium center-lock wheels as well as many mechanical and chassis improvements gleaned from Porsche's previous racecar successes. The 910's development resulted in many overall weight savings improvement, including lighter bodywork, magnesium wheels, beryllium brake discs, titanium uprights, and incorporating part of the chassis as an oil circulation conduit. This example was driven by Hans Hermann (Porsche-Le Mans winner 1970) in the Sierre-Montana-Crans hill climb, finishing 3rd . It was also used in extensive factory testing, resulting in improved performance of subsequent race car models. The car was then sold to its first owner Rudi Lins (a Porsche factory driver), who enjoyed many racing successes before passing the car onto the 2nd owner, an Austrian privateer. The extensive competition history of 001 is very well documented. It was then purchased by a private German racing enthusiast in 1994, who embarked on a comprehensive restoration ensuring accuracy and authenticity. The original Bill of Sale, registration documents and subsequent titles, as well as, FIA papers complete the provenance and history of 910-001.
