Yep, the Gmund Coupe sure was at the Daytona event. I was quite impressive to see one of these hand made 356's. He had a binder sitting on the front fender showing and telling the compete history of the car. The car looked completely original. Interior and all.

Jerry might own the car - but guess who owns the porcelain show plate? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Speaking of celeb 914 owners. I just started a new job. One of my co-workers saw my car and told me Dr. Phil used to give him tennis lessons. He would come pick him up in a 914. He was only 9 or 10 at the time and always found it funny they would put their rackets in the front. Evidently Dr. Phil is still an avid car guy, don't know if he still owns the 914.

congratulations John (IMG:style_emoticons/default/thumb3d.gif)


this porcelain plate gives me the missing info, why this Gmünd Coupe has this specific license plate (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rocking nana.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mueba.gif)

you might know that Gmünd is a little village in Corinthia, Austria
this district should have a license plate starting with a K - therefore the famous Porsche #1 had the license plate "K 45.286"

(IMG:http://www.carstyling.ru/resources/classic/48porsche_356_nr1_roadster_1.jpg)

but Jerry's car's license plate starts with a T ... which stands for Tirol (my area!!)
well now, the porcelain plate says, that's an ex Otto Mathé car
this guy was a really famous race driver from Innsbruck, the main city from Tirol, about 20 miles to the east from my place

Otto Mathé got famous for various things, the most impressive was that he still won most of his races with only one arm - he lost one at a racing accident ...

Otto Mathé also had some 914 relation - he owned that M471, but never drove it

sorry for (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hijacked.gif) ... thought it might be interesting ...

Found an article not sure of the date but it says he has 47 at the hanger. Also said he bought a 1600 speedster for his wife for 40k.

I'm afraid nobody can tell for sure (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)
(well, Jerry could)

these are the cars I'd consider as "owner in question"
914.1.43.0195 - does it still own that guy in SC ??
914.2.33.0015 - is it really gone forever or still stored away anywhere or even restored ??
914.2.33.0017 - ownership recently changed ... now top secret ...
914.2.33.0020 - does it still own that guy in FL ??

feel free to post your knowledge (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Wilco, I know that you know that I know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

but "M471" writes easier than "later M471 wannabe conversion with 916 style bumpers on it" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

He was negotiating to get this Daytona winning 962C. I don't know if he got it or not. I overheard 475K and that was 2 years ago.

I was told by a reputable source that Jerry owns this GT. I was told that he prefers very original cars, and this one is suppose to be one of the most original GT cars in exsistance. Its the Alfa GT, bought by Alfa Romeo to study a factory PORSCHE race car at the time.

That 916 you are refering to is now in the hands of Richard Sloan.
www.sloancars.com

These two guys are trading cars back and forth and if there were ever two people vying for "who ever dies with the most Porsches wins", these are the two.
BTW. The 916 is priced at $350K.
