No info on AJ's site...?

nope ...

he only has a few (b/w) pictures of this car and a lot of the MM #19 on his site,
but no info on who, when or where the car is today.

i'm hoping someone actually knows something about the car. after all, when it was sold to the US, it had a lot of racing history under it's belt (63 confirmed races between '71 and '75) and as a ex-MM car should have gotten a lot of attention. someone must have seen this car after 1975 and/or know where it is today ...

It could be out here in the McCaw's (Cellular One fame) collection of old race cars. Who knows what cars they have other than they drag em out a couple of times a year for historic races. (love that 917!)

not sure if this helps, but take a look at:
Max Moritz GT
same car, other pics
lots of GTs

you might ask at the "Porsche Center Neckar-Alb", home of the Max Moritz Team?

yeah, i have seen all those links and pictures. the car #19 (and #18) are different cars tho ...

and i don't think MM knows what happened to the car after '75, after all, they sold it in '72 to Schimpf ...

I know that Claus Mueller here in Florida owns one of the Max Moritz GT's. I know that it needs a total restoration and is not for sale. He also owns the Walt Mass, Garretson Enterprises 914-6 that won the 1977 IMSA GTU title.

Yeah, I could contact him. I'm friends with him and his wife. I know he travels over seas on business all the time. Claus is German and is very knowledgable on the 914-6 GT. Looking at some Max Moritz Racing Team paperwork that Claus gave me, it talks about VIN # 9141430178. I think that might be the car Claus owns. Hmmmm, that's the car you were asking about.

No, I don't think that is true. At least not the Claus Mueller I know.
