Not exactly a technical question but most of you hang out here so I thought I would try posting my question here.

Does anyone know where I can find history on the 914 or 916 Jagermeister car raced in Europe.
It may have been car # 78 or #77.

If anyone knows where I can look to get information I would appreciate it.

Thanks in advance, Paul

I found this from the 1972 1000 Km Nurburgring results. The site is not in English. I'll continue to look as well. The history of the GT cars is very interesting to me as well.

Check the VIN numbers on the Marathon de la Route 86 Hour Race Cars. They match the car numbers.

I have not found the VIN for it yet, but I'm still delving into the history of the racing GT's. Keep me posted.
