Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Lefthand drive. One of two cars from Porsche with this number, the other being the Kanguruh flat 8 raced at the 1967 Targa Florio. First raced in Australia by Alan Hamilton and winner of the 1967 Australian Championship in spyder form. Sold to Richard Wong Wei Hong and raced in SE Asia before selling to Teddy Yip in Macau. Restored to coupe configuration in Belgium in recent years, comes with documentation, the spyder body, engine block, heads and more. Good paint and interior. Looks freshly restored.

Market commentary

This is a heck of a car, and a wonderful restoration of it to like new condition without going overboard. According to the catalog the restoration has addressed the items appropriate to modern historic racing performance and safety, a claim the cars appearance supports. This is top of the market for a 906, especially for one with no history in the premier events of the day.
