A german friend does some research on the car #9140431258
The original color was canary yellow. It's a factory built custom race car. The first driver was Hermann Neureuther. He started with this car at about 60 races. When he changed to a 911 RSR, the history of #9140431258 ends in the dark ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) At the homepage from Glenn Stazak we've found some pics. Can anybody tell us what happend to the car, is there any kind of history known? So long, Gustl |

"Sold 24/07/70 (July 24th 1970) by the Germen dealer MAHAG where it was service through 1971. It was imported to the USA in 1972 and was at the Wester Porsche/ Audi Dealership in Monterey Ca.
Dr. Marvin Taves of Reno Nv. owned and raced the car until it showed up for sale on consignment at Beverly Hills Porsche in 1977. Ron & Barbara Webb purchased it at that time and successfully time triled and auto crossed it with PCA & POC for many years until retiring to Richfield Utah in 1992. Upon Ronís death in 98 it was stored until I aquired it November 2002. The headlight treatment is thought to have been done by the German stylist Glocker. A similar work, with picture, is attributed to him in the book ìDas Grosse VW-Porsche Buchî. If anyone has any additional information Please contact me. Greg Fullmer" |
