At dp Motorsport in Overrath near Cologne, high-quality sports cars and racing cars have been produced for 45 years, mainly based on Porsches. In the 1980s the company converted several 911s to 935s and consistently named the specially made kits dpI, dpII and dpIII. From the final kit dpIII, created from 1995 and based on the Porsche 911 (964) Turbo, only five copies existed for racing, some of them equipped with the engine of the Porsche 962. They dominated German motorsport series. The best-known vehicle belongs to the brothers Uwe and J\u00fcrgen Alzen until today and still appears occassionally at RCN and VLN races on the N\u00fcrburgring Nordschleife.

In 1997 a customer approached Ekkehard Zimmermann, the founder of dp Motorsport, and asked if his Porsche 911 (964) Turbo could be converted into a street-legal version of the 935 dpIII. Since the appropriate expertise was available, Zimmermann accepted this job gladly. In addition to the pure body conversion with corresponding parts made of glassfiber reinforced plastic with further reinforcements made of carbonfiber, the car was repainted from the original black to polar silver, the color of the Alzen racing car.<\/p>\n\n\n
