I dont really know... seems like just a RUF facility built the car with Lindsey parts. Nice car but not really special

RUF pedal set up and steering wheel.... Not impressed at all

That's RUF Autocentre in Dallas. VERY nice people/facility.

From reading the auction, they state that they built the car using LR parts for a customer. Pretty safe to assume they aren't marketing it as a "RUF" 951




Very well done track car. Snapped these pics when they had their toy run in December of last year. Wasn't quite finished then.

Hood wasn't open and you don't just walk around touching all the cars. Especially since they were letting us into their customer car storage area.

Here's another 944 turbo track car they had...look behind it...

The car was put together with the 340 kit, spec'd by a customer. A light 944T, with 350hp, is pretty damn quick. Here's the dyno
