I watched a replay of today’s action on the 917. A lot of great cars today. This one was the McQueen of the ball.
I’m not sure if it ever sold. Attached image(s)

I know it goes without saying but the car is even more impressive in person, particularly when you can get up close to it.
I went to a private car collection two years ago, up in Corona California and the #2 car was there. It was awesome to see. We weren't allowed to climb on it. He had two original GT 40's that he let us get in and poke around but the 917 was there to look at only.    |
