The first official Porsche racing entrant was the 356 SL in 1951, a custom version of Porsche’s first production car, the 356. At the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Porsche won the under 1100cc category in its first try thanks to its aluminum body. unlike the Porsche No. 1, the engine was now behind the rear axle in order to make room for two small back seats. Around fifty 356 aluminium Coupés were made between 1949 and 1951 in Gmünd (Austria), after which provisional production facilities were set up in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. In 1951, the aluminium Coupés manufactured in Gmünd were then used as a basis for the initial entry into motor sport by Porsche. It goes without saying that the Porsche was adapted to the demands of motor racing.
