A friend of mine has a VERY nice car that I've mentioned in the past.
This weekend when I was at school, he brought his car out to work out some of the cobwebs. I snapped a few shots: Attached image(s) |

Who would have thought that 30-35 years later we'd be trying to find these used race cars. At the time they were cheap and exspendable and there was no regard to keeping them "original". Patch them up and get them on the track. Now its "do the numbers match?, are the stickers on the inside of the fenders?, Is the factory mechanic's DNA on the engine tin?
If you look at the 917 history website, some of those cars were renumbered and some lost completely. I'm sure if we were into Cobra Mustangs or GT40s or BRE 510s it would be the same story. Fun to discuss... Paul |
