DER PROTOTYP DES PORSCHE 901
EINZELSTUECK DER FRUEHEN JAHRE WIEDERENTDECKT
It sounds like a fairy tale or a well-told story: in April 1964, a blue car caught the eye of young Alois Ruf, which he recognised as a pre-production model of the Porsche 901. His fascination for Stuttgart's marque receives a further boost.
When, a few years later, his father gifts him a 901, a car with minor accident damage and, moreover, blue in colour, the young man initially pays no attention to it. However, this is the beginning of an incredible story!
Alois Ruf drives it, then for some time he parks it, and almost forgets it. But only almost! The story of the 901 will never leave him. He starts a complete restoration, does research and finds it hard to believe what he discovers: his classic car was one of the first, or more precisely, the sixth 901 ever built. And, therefore, exactly the car that whizzed in front of the young Alois Ruf years earlier.
The well-known automotive journalist Jürgen Lewandowski, author of countless publications, will accompany you in this strange and fascinating journey through the history of Porsche.
Der Prototyp des Porsche 901 Einzelstück der frühen Jahre wiederentdeckt has 178 pages and 121 pictures. Text in German.
