1963 Porsche 356b 2000 GS Carrera GT
For the contests in the important GT (Gran Turismo) category, Porsche
built this 356b 2000 GS Carrera GT, a racing version based on the 356
Carrera 2.
Driven by Edgar Barth and Herbert Linge, this last Porsche with an
aluminum body places third in its Targa Florio premiere in 1963.
Equiped with a steeply sloping rear window to aid overall aerodynamics, this car's unique silhouette earns it the nickname "Dreikantschaber", or roughly "wedge blade".
