[High3nd]

The Schuppan 962CR is (BLANK 9**) converted for street use.

Now this is a tough one. Winner get a MILLION Points. Because if you know this then you know EVERYTHING, and i will have allllllll the respect in the world for you.

No cheating either, meaning, no looking up on the internet.

Well High3nd

As far as I know the car dates back to 1989 when Vern Schuppan built six of them as a tribute to his 1983 LeMans24 victory with a Porsche 956. The Engine is a 600 bhp IMSA spec. twin turbocharged 3.4 l flat six

Just try to find the Victory by design which covers Porsche and Alain de Cadenet will reveal it all (54:35 - 56:40) :!:

I read that only 5 were built?
Eitherway, they were $2.5 million in 1994, god knows what they would cost now.

^^^that is actually a pic of the dauer not the schuppan. the schuppan was also the tribute, not the dauer. also the dauer was a 3.0 liter flat 6 that made 750 hp, not the 3.4 the schuppan had. just wanted to make sure no one confused the dauer with the schuppan. :)

this is the schuppan..........

Thnaks Brijoel,

Should have trusted my instincts on this one as the car logo at the front is a Porsche logo :oops:
But I found the picture so nice and crisp ought that I had to share that picture with JW.
The remainder of those "Dauer" pics can be founde here:
