Info: Smooth roof 948 Coupe. Currently in Ireland awaiting restoration. Advert was for a 1961 car. Unfortunately we do not have any more info, especially to determine whether this was a UK or Ireland assembled car
Update 2013:
This was imported into Ireland back in the mid 1970s, the reg does not match a 1961 built car. I'd suggest this is UK built: Darren O'Rourke
Update 2016:
Commission and Engine Numbers confirmed (and car added to survivors list)
UPDATE 2018 - AMAZING RESTORATION
