Just picked up a 1973 911 RS replica and took it to autox

I just picked up a 1973 911 RS replica w/ original RS motor with all matching numbers to it. Finally got the car registered and took it out for a spin. The car completely amazed me on how fast it was. First gear just pins you in the seat. That weekend there was a PCA autox so i entered the car in it. The car came with full suspension and r compound tires. Let me tell you, that i was sooo impressed on how this did. I got second best time of the day and it was my first time out with the car. I have some pictures and videos of the car also. In the pics is also my 1971 911 targa, didnt do as well do to dried up street tires.

I believe we all make mistakes but I will not validate your poor choices and/or perversions and subsidize the results your actions.

Well its not mine personally, its from my dads shop, i just race it . We actually found it on ebaymotors. My dads shop collects these exotic and race cars. The green targa was purchased not to long ago too. The car has a full long page of performance parts done to it. I'll try and find some more pics of it when i get the chance and post them up.

If its a replica with a real RS engine, how can all the numbers match on it?

Anyways, it sure is a sweet looking car. White/blue '73 RS look, that's hard to beat.

The motor came out of a real RS body. The numbers match with the body it came out of not what I have it in now.

I wonder where the original unit body is? That motor would be worth a fortune to the owner of the unit body.

Thats a nice car you got there but why do you have a Z06 on your toolbox? That should be a GT2!
