Prior to the construction of this CTR, the owner purchased a '71 T Targa out of the South FL area and shipped it to Ruf. Since Ruf is recognized as a manufacturer, Ruf has the ability to rebody a car and transfer the VIN from old shell to new.

This was done to be able to "re-import" the car to the states and avoid any DOT or EPA issues.

The only thing that the donor car gave up was its VIN and paper. This car was absolutely, positively a NEW Ruf build from the '89 shell outward...
