Yes thanks, had it a while. Marc Bongers (the author) is a really nice bloke, used to work for Porsche Archives, now works for Ruf.

On a German forum I found a quote that states this book is identical (expect for the paper wrapping thingie) to Marc Bonger's "Porsche data Book" published by Haynes. See www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1844253163/qid%3D1140771558/026-6512044-2538064

Having seen a copy I can confirm that pages 308-336 cover a chapter titled "Ruf Cars Based on Porsche."
