The Porsche 901 was unveiled to the public at the 1963 Frankfurt motor show and was the company’s successor to the very successful 356. The 901 then quickly became known as the 911 due to Peugeot claiming the three digit name with a zero in the middle. Hence Porsche new car became known as the 911. There were only 232 of these cars produced in 1964 and these 232 cars are known as the Porsche 901. These early 1964 Porsche 901’s several different features to the later 911’s of which this car still retains many of them. Such as the flat rear slam panel, fuel flap release pull in a different position, four hole horn grills, early interior knee bar, top mounted dash screws etc.
This car chassis 300161 was produced in December 1964 and finished in light ivory with black interior which is how the car is presented today. More recently the car was restored to FIA appendix K specifications and then raced extensively by two separate well known Porsche aficionados. 300161 competed throughout Europe at the all prestigious events including Peter Auto 60’s Endurance, Spa 6 hours and of course the Goodwood Revival where the car has been invited to compete on three other separate occasions.
