Some Group C Cars

Recently I took my Prosport to a garage to have some work done on the gearbox. Never used this garage before but the guy was recommended. Imagine my delight when I wandered in and saw this.....

Re: Some Group C Cars

me neither Malc, just I know sometimes those beauty are for sale in Uk and prices are not stellar as down here or in Germany.
If u can..maybe try look if the bodyshell of the 962 and 956 was carbon fiber or fiberglass.
I think it was fiberglass, cause should be only the dauer to have the carbon body, but I am not so sure..

I show you a 962 made from my friend Jochen Dauer, street homologated with 730 BHP and capable of 404 km/h.
Crazy Jochen, the best.

Re: Some Group C Cars

wee ciao mitiko,
yes, I well remember Dauer 962 and its incredible performance.
Just i dunno if the original previous porches were already in carbon fiber or not (as 1983 stefan bellof car)looking at some 956/962 crashes the body seems in fiberglass...thats why I asked Malc to go there... BROKE a piece and tell us more....ihihihih

Re: Some Group C Cars

Sorry guys, not due up there again in the near future and hopefully won't have a need to go as my car will be reliable!!!!! However from what I remember it did not look like carbon fibre on the cars.
