Meet the Mintbird!

Hoi everyone!
Figured Id Share a super-high milage RUF CTR I bought recently. The car was delivered originally as a guards red 89 3.2 , 2 years later it was taken to Pfaffenhausen and converted to a RUF CTR - also known as a yellowbird - and given a RUF Mint green color.
Its done 120.000 Miles, and the gearbox had a rebuild last year.
So indeed not all Yellowbirds are that - yellow!

Ive been following JBL930`s threads for many years and dreaming about a 930 ( Rest in Peace JBL930) - and realised rather than spending 50 grand on a 930 to get it to 500 bhp - might as well just start with a CTR and be done with it.
Performance should be ample, road and track measured 60-125 mph in 6.5 seconds in 1987.
That will do thanks!
