1978 PORSCHE 911 EAST AFRICA SAFARI RALLY CAR - MARTINI LIVERY In 1978, Porsche decided to further expand its motorsports pedigree by entering two 911 SCs in the East Africa Safari Classic Rally. This grueling race is 94 hours and 3,000 miles long, and it takes on some of the most challenging terrains in the world. Entering two 911 SC rally cars (number 5 and number 14), Porsche took on the challenge, hoping to prove the brand’s motorsport history as a rally competitor. Overcoming the challenges of the course while suffering from breakdowns, the two 911 SCs placed in second and fourth place, cementing Porsche in rallying history. This 1978 Porsche 911 is a replica of the famous number 5 car, which is housed in the Porsche Museum in Stuttgart. Built to the same specifications as the infamous rally car, this 911 is ready to take on any challenge. Finished in a beautiful Martini livery like the one featured on the original car, this 911 SC pays homage to the legendary 1978 rally icon. Come see it before it’s too late in our exhilarating exhibit, Street | Rally | Race, ending April 2024.
