My 3.0 RSR project

[bergporsche]

Building on a 1974 RS body-shell with 2 times Rally Monte Carlo experience 1982 & 1984
Just tell me what you think of it.
Nice to read on this forum how Americans being that kind of enthusiast about 3.0 RSR.
Hope to talk to people who also building a RSR, here in Europe its hard to find.

Really, really nice looking.
Not many of these 3.0 RSR are built by many.
You are doing an incredible job.
Please keep sending us more pics and you make additional progress.

There is a very nice replica 3.0 RSR on sale with eBay that I am drooling over right now.

Thanks for the great compliments and interest.

The engine on the pics is the 1st one i build.
Here some specs;

Base 964 C2 1991.
P/c 102 mm 3.8 liter Cup
Cups 3.8 Cams with Porsche motor-sport rockers
Slide valves reproduction.
B & B headers

But i have to build me an other engine cause it is not legal to race in the hitsoric class here in Holland whit those specs.

So i am building a other engine now.

100 mm Mahle p/c
CR 11.0-1
964 balanced crank
930 oilpump
RSR 3.0 cams whit center-lube oiling
RSR lightened flywheel
Slide valves
RSR Pump,Mechanical injection, changed to 3.6 ltr
etc. etc.

WOW - lovley work, you seem to have my dream job!

[bergporsche]

the crank

[bergporsche]

Yep, it is a nice job.
I grew up whit Porsche, i think i was even made in it,lol
My father started his company in the mid 60's and he did the maintenance en repair of the only RSR, 934 and 935 here in Holland
In 1993 he died by a car accident.
So i took over the company of my mother in 1995.
In 1994 i sold his racing car to the USA, i think it is still there on the tracks drove by an Dutch meat broker.
Maybe some one knows the car
Got some nice old pics of that time.

the car we sold to the USA in 1994

Thanks for the extra info and pictures, well done....you have just made me even more jealous.

[Leland Pate]

WOW!

How far are you from Koln?

[kycarguy 935]

Nice pictures!

Do you have more pictures of your dolly? I'm getting ready to build one soon and I like the way yours bolts on.

[boba]

This is a great project. The pictures are very good, keep them comming as you go forward.

[quattrorunner]

Glorious!

[Bryan Beaumont]

Thanks for sharing more info. Nice to see someone on the other side of the pond with the same love for PORSCHE, sharing their perspective.
Hope to see more as your project progresses. Good Luck.

[Bryan Beaumont]

BergPorsche,
When you get a chance maybe you could post pics of the other 5 in your collection. Can't get too much of a good thing
Thanks,

Bryan Beaumont

[Doug E]

Great project and old pics !

Thanks for sharing.

[bergporsche]

thnx to all of you.
Here some more pics fro the old Porsche factory in the 70's when we visited.
You can see that all is handcrafted instead of computerized building today.
Leland, we are about 250 km from Koln, in the midlle of Holland, 30 km from Arnhem.

[Dutchie]

WOW nice project Wim ! If possible i would like to pay a visit sometimes to see the progress on the RSR and RS you are building.


Cheers,
