1992 DP 962<\/h1>\n

DP Motorsport, under the watchful eye of Ekkehard Zimmermann was the first company to covert the largely successful Porsche 962 into a road car. The conversion took over 1000 hours provided the owner had one of the 150 Porsche 956\/962s as a base. Zimmermann spent 6-months developing this car which raised the headlights, added mirrors, reduced the A-pillars for vision and added four catalysts for exhaust emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n

Only three 962 have been completed one in black with an orange ‘RS Tuning’ sticker, 1 green , 1 silver. Pictures of both the Black and Silver DP 962s have appeared on the internet.<\/p>\n

Please feel free to send us a message if you have any more information concerning the DP Motorsport 962. You can reach their website at: http:\/\/www.dp-motorsport.de\/, if you speak German or know these guys, maybe you can help us out.<\/p>\n
