Porsche 964 Cup

We found this original 964 Cup at a Belgian colleague’s place. A Scottish customer had been looking for a car like this for some time. After we emailed him a few photos, the sale was quickly concluded. As the car had been involved in a legal dispute that had dragged on for a very long time – around 10 years – it was necessary to fully restore the Porsche.
The engine has been completely stripped down and fitted with new gaskets and piston rings. The rest of the mechanical components, such as the brakes and chassis, have been refurbished where necessary. The bare bodywork was first fitted with air jack mounting points, which we manufactured ourselves, and then completely repainted in the original Grand Prix white. As this was a spare Porsche from the French Porsche Cup, it was not possible at the time to find an old, original photograph showing what the Porsche had looked like in its early racing years. In consultation with the client, it was decided to create a replica of the car driven by the former German racing driver Harald Grohs. This was partly because we were restoring the 964 RSR of another Scottish client at almost the same time, which also featured the ‘Max Com’ livery.In addition to the special extra-wide Cup 1 wheels, we also restored a set of original Speedline wheels for the client. Anyone who has visited the Porsche Days at the Spa-Francorchamps circuit in recent years will surely have seen this magnificent 964 Cup in action.
