These photos were posted on instagram yesterday from Canepa’s shop. Is this the 916 Brutus that sold for $1M in Paris last winter?

RD sells this one , with early indentation;;; Well, at least something besides the side-shift transmission on my '73 is '73—literally everything else I have come across is 1972...doors, windows, top, rain tray, headlight switch, and a bunch of other stuff is all 1972 gear. 4732900193 What I am not getting is it looks like there are three indentations? Mine, the yellow one, and the one in Brutus (which looks like the RD piece?). |

The Brutus indent doesn't look like either of the others to me. It's not as angular as the late one or as short as the early one. |

The Brutus indent doesn't look like either of the others to me. It's not as angular as the late one or as short as the early one. ^ That's what I meant. Black one seems to have similar shape to yellow but definitely dips a lot lower. Didn't know there were two versions, let alone three. Not sure I care all that much, or would be bothered to change a longitudinal to address it (assuming nothing else wrong), but that's probably why I am not into concours. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I do find it interesting, however. Wonder why the RD longs are shaped differently than either of the factory longs? Attached image(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() |
