Schuppan 962CR

Porsche's sporting 962 Group C racers were not only a great success on tracks, but also created terrific sensation among the individual buyers all around the world. Although the 1982 make 962s soon became obsolete on account of changing race rules and technically advanced competitors, there were ample number of them in proper shape but without any apparent purpose to serve. Hence it was not long before racing team proprietors decided to convert their respective Porsche’s into roadsters for domestic use. Jochen Dauer was the pioneer of this league as he was credited with manufacturing some exceptional 962 based roadsters, some of which were re-modified to participate in the GT1 class of the 1994 Lemans Race.

Another stalwart in this field was Australian Lemans icon Vern Schuppan, who with Japanese backing modified the former racing car surpassing the benchmark set by Dauer. Notable changes include the exteriors that incorporated the front and rear lights from the present-day Porsche 911. The chassis was also redesigned to better suit the roadster’s needs.
