Count Gregorio Rossi di Montelera, heir to the Martini and Rossi fortune, commissioned a road legal Porsche 917 in 1974.
Built from chassis 917-030, originally used as a test mule by Porsche, the car was modified for street use with only minimal changes. These included the addition of exhaust silencers, the removal of certain aerodynamic fins, and the installation of a custom Tan leather interior.
Painted silver, this exceptional machine allowed Count Rossi to drive a true Le Mans winning prototype on public roads, making it one of the rarest and most extraordinary examples of a #Porsche 917 ever created.
