Description:
Hello all,
I have been tasked with selling this car.
I have taken care of it for the last several years and it's only raced once since we have had it..
Since we bought it I have rebuilt whole front end with Skirmants de-cambered spindles and installed Vic's rear end camber regulator.
I also sent off the old fuel safe can and had a new bladder made for it.
Added burns muffler to the back to pass sound at Laguna Seca during an SCCA event (103db)
Asking 70k
Reduced price
Car comes ready to race after a service
Here is a bit about the car from before we got it.
1963 Porsche 356 B Cabriolet Racecar
s/n 157546, engine no. 741153
Gulf Livery with Black Interior
This 1963 Porsche 356 B Cabriolet is a fully prepared and developed vintage racecar with period history dating back to 1965 where it competed in the 24th running of the Santa Barbara Road Races, among other events.
Ownership history is known for this chassis back to 1971 when it was purchased from a widow in Santa Barbra by Joe Boucher. Boucher reports racing the car at Phoenix, Holtville, and Riverside in the early 1970s. Boucher sold the car to Doug March who owned the car until 1989 campaigning the car in SCCA F Production and other Porsche related time trial events. Ed Yates purchased the car in 1990 and was an active participant with HMSA, VARA, and the Porsche Owners Club. Perhaps the most notable of these events are the Monterey Pre-Historic Race weekend at Laguna Seca, and the Wine Country Classic at Sears point (1995). Last owner has exercised this example with VARA and HSR West in 2003, 2004, and 2005.Last Raced at Laguna Seca SCCA in 2011.

Do you have more details? What are the motor specs? How many hours on the last build? Who built the motor? Same for the gearbox... Who built it? What is the gearing? How many hours on it?
Is this your car, or one that you take care of?
Cheers

I do have all of that and am trying to locate the book we have on it
I will post in here and send you a pm.
I know the motor was built by Dave Koch
here is a little snip from when we bought it.
Motor has 171.2 at 7500rpm with 140 ft/lbs of torque at 5200rpm. Solex PII 42mm carburetors and JE 86mm pistons are fitted, along with a Burch racing exhaust. Full flow oil coolers have been installed with braided lines. The transmission is a short course ratio unit, no. 714/2. Period correct disc brakes are fitted. The floors and longitudinals have been replaced with reinforced OEM material.
We bought the car with less than a hour on the motor and gearbox
Jerry Woods Built the cage.

Last run in this car was at this event.
APRIL 30, 2011 • VINTAGE CLASSSIC
racehero.io has it
car 19 in group 3 seems 156.6 was the fast lap with the short course gearbox.
We were hitting the rev limiter over the top of turn 1
Lots of motor in this car.
found out a bit more history....last owner before us ran about 6 practice laps on it and decided he was not ready to go slow yet (GT3 Cup Driver).
So we do know every owner from current to early 70's
