This video is about a beautiful Porsche 935 K3 my friend @Italiansupercarvideo and I recorded at Monza Circuit during the 2020 Monza Historic by Peter Auto. We have to thank the driver of this car, Jean-Marc Merlin, and the French specialists of Equipe Europe, who manage the car and were so kind and available to let us put an action camera inside the cockpit.
The car you see in this video is chassis number 930 770 0911 and it left Weissach in 1977 in customer 935/77A specs for Georg Loos' Gelo Racing. It was used during 1977 in the German DRM championship and at Le Mans. At the end of the DRM season, 0911 was sold to Italy where it won the Vallelunga 6 Hours. The car remained in Italy throughout 1978, now prepared by the famous Jolly Club team, and recorded a superb 2nd overall finish in October’s six-day Giro d’Italia Automobilistico, courtesy of drivers Carlo Facetti and Martino Finotto. Jolly Club’s involvement continued into 1979, starting with preparation for the Daytona 24 Hours and later the Mugello 6 Hours. The car was sold mid-season to aspiring Floridian IMSA entrant Charles Mendez.
In 1980, 0911 was sold to Roy Woods’ Racing Associates team and was upgraded to Kremer K3 specification. The car was duly re-numbered 009 0005, and reappeared in that year’s Daytona 24 Hours featuring a Coca Cola livery and driven by Woods, Bob Akin, and Bobby Rahal. The team’s focal point for the year had been the Le Mans 24 Hours in June, where Akin would share the car with Paul Miller and Ralph Kent-Cooke, although this would end in disappointment once again with axle failure after 237 laps. Newly renamed as Cooke Woods Racing for 1981, the car returned to Sebring in March where, driven by Woods, Kent-Cooke, and McKitterick, where it finished a magnificent 2nd overall.
In more recent year the car used to be raced at Peter Auto's historic events with a red Coca-Cola inspired livery, but recently if was freshly repainted in this amazing evocative 1981 Sebring livery.
The car is now up for sale at the upcoming Monterey auction by RM Sotheby's.
