A total of 65 were produced in 1966, allowing the model to be homologated for FIA&#8217;s new\u00a0Group 4\u00a0Sports Car category although the 906 would also compete in modified form in the Group 6 Sports Prototype class.<\/p>\n<p>A successor to the\u00a0Porsche 904, and designed under Ferdinand Pi\u00ebch&#8217;s new regime at Porsche R&amp;D, the 906 replaced the boxed\u00a0steel\u00a0structure of the 904 which used the fiberglass body for extra structural strength with a tubular\u00a0space frame\u00a0and unstressed\u00a0fiberglass\u00a0body. The fiberglass itself was laid up by hand, producing consistent results, instead of the uneven spraying technique used on the 904.<\/p>\n<p>The result was a car that weighed 1,300\u00a0lb, approximately 250 lb lighter than the 904\/6. The engine regularly fitted was the 901\/20 6-cylinder lightweight racing engine with 220 hp and carburetors, although some examples that were raced by the factory team received fuel injected 8-cylinder engines, especially in\u00a0hillclimbing\u00a0events where Porsche competed with\u00a0Ferrari Dinos\u00a0for the European championship.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike previous racing Porsches, the 906 body was tested in a\u00a0wind tunnel, resulting in a top speed of 170\u00a0mph at Le Mans, quite fast for a 2-liter engine car. It shows already a close resemblance to future Porsche racing cars. As in the\u00a0Mercedes-Benz 300SL,\u00a0gull-wing doors\u00a0were fitted, and the engine at the rear was covered with a large Plexiglas cover.<\/p>\n<p>In its debut in the 1966\u00a024 Hours of Daytona, the Carrera 6 finished 6th overall, and won its class against Ferrari Dino 206 Ps. At the\u00a012 Hours of Sebring,\u00a0Hans Herrmann\/Gerhard Mitter\u00a0finished fourth overall and won the class, as at the 1000 km of\u00a0Monza.<\/p>\n<p>The 1000 km at\u00a0Spa\u00a0were disappointing, as were the 1000 km\u00a0N\u00fcrburgring\u00a0where the Dinos were only beaten by the\u00a0Chevrolet V8-powered\u00a0Chaparral. A privately entered 906 secured an overall victory at the 1966\u00a0Targa Florio\u00a0when the factory cars failed.<\/p>\n<p>At the 1966\u00a024 Hours of Le Mans, the 906 placed 4-5-6-7 behind three\u00a0Ford GT40\u00a0Mk IIs, outlasting all of the previously dominant V12 engined\u00a0Ferrari Ps.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 For Sale <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>Details: <\/strong>Seller Jan Luehn does not disclose the asking price.

The Carrera 6 is today presented in perfect condition throughout. It is fitted with a correct 2-litre factory race engine and the matching gearbox. The brakes have been reconditioned, every rose joint replaced, the dampers serviced with new springs and a new wiring loom was made in the USA, an exact copy of the original loom. All parts that got replaced in due course have been saved and are still with the car. The 906 also comes with many spare parts (full list on request) as well as a full set of moulds to reproduce the main body parts easily. Furthermore it will be sold including the original aluminum\/steel wheels plus two sets of American magnesium wheels as well as the original quick lift jack and the extremely rare original FIA plastic luggage container which sits over the gearbox.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are now selling the car including a large history file, various original race programs, films and correspondence documenting its full history. The Carrera 906 is eligible for the most prestigious events worldwide as the Goodwood Festival of Speed, Le Mans Classic, Tour Auto or similar.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Additional Photos:<\/strong><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_587651\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-587651\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-587651 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-period-race-293x196.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-587651\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Porsche 906 Period Race Image<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_587652\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-587652\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-587652 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"313\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main-100x63.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-main-293x183.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-587652\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Porsche 906<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_587653\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-587653\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-587653\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior-100x75.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-interior-293x220.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-587653\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Porsche 906 Interior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_587655\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-587655\" style=\"width: 500px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-587655\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"529\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1-284x300.jpg 284w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1-95x100.jpg 95w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/03\/porsche-906-left-rear-1-293x310.jpg 293w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-587655\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Porsche 906 Rear<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>[Source: Jan Luehn; <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Porsche_906\">Wikipedia<\/a>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The\u00a0Porsche 906\u00a0or\u00a0Carrera 6\u00a0was the last street-legal racing car from\u00a0Porsche.
