Remarks owner: | This car left the factory in April 1957 and was delivered to \Werk\", the Porsche company itself. It was driven by Huschke von Hanstein who was the manager of the Press Department. The car was used for road tests and by Mr. von Hanstein as his personal car. In a test in Sports Car International, it was a \"normal\" Carrera Speedster and later in Top Gear 1958 it appeared as a GT. In the spring of 1958 it was purchased by the Swedish Porsche importer Scania-bilar. The first Swedish driver was called Mr. Olof Persson. He competed in The Rally to the Midnight sun in 1958 and in ice races in 1958 and 1959. When it was sold in 1960, it had a normal 1600N-engine. It had a four cam-engine two years later when it reappeared on the track but later in received the pushrod engine again. Christer Nyberg from Sweden owned this car from 1978 to 1983.
