The 1976 Porsche 911 Turbo Carrera special ordered by Steve McQueen will be among the headline offerings at the Mecum Monterey 2015 auction, scheduled for August 13-15 at the Hyatt Regency Monterey Hotel in California during Monterey Classic Car Week. The 930 Porsche was the last car custom-ordered by the late movie star. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Porsche will be donated to McQueen\u2019s alma mater, the reform school Boys Republic.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis car is rich in history,\u201d said McQueen\u2019s son Chad. \u201cThis is the last of the McQueen cars, really. That\u2019s known. That\u2019s real.\u201d<\/p>\n

McQueen\u2019s death in 1980 at age 50 made this 1976 Porsche 930, chassis 9306800408, the last of his special-order cars. His notorious need for speed and his affinity for automobiles meant always having the best sets of wheels, and his Porsche 930 was no exception. Producing 234 HP at 5,500 RPM, the matching-numbers, four-speed 930 came equipped with the early production non-intercooled 3.0 liter engine, number 6860413, with Bosch K-Jetronic fuel injection. It was special ordered from Bob Smith Porsche in Hollywood. McQueen specified that the car be delivered wearing Slate Gray with a sunroof, dual mirrors, limited-slip differential and black sport seats.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy dad had little things done to it,\u201d Chad continued. \u201cLike on the dashboard, he had a switch put on so it would kill the rear lights in case he was being chased on Mulholland Drive.\u201d<\/p>\n

The ex-Steve McQueen Porsche 930 also passed through the hands of other Hollywood notables including movie producer and writer Floyd Mutrux, as well as Dean Martin\u2019s son, actor Dean Paul Martin. It’s offered with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, extensive service records, the original owner\u2019s manual, original tools and original sales brochures.<\/p>\n
