Equipment
Hub caps, Michelin XZX tires, Marchal driving lights, gold brightwork.
Condition
Light scratches on the rear bumper. The rest of the brightwork is a little dull. Excellent paint. There is an antenna but no radio. There are some chips and cracks in the steering wheel as well as the shift linkage. Some flattening to the driver's seat. Light age on a fundamentally high quality restoration, and small niggles don't take much away from a car when it's a genuine Carrera with a correct Typ 547/1 engine and the original gearbox. Has Kardex, CoA and FIVA passport.
Market commentary
4-cam Porsche enthusiasts must have been worn out after the 550A a few lots earlier. They didn't rise to the bait of this very good, complete and highly original Carrera GS and the bidding came up short of its consignor's expectations and even its value.
