up close and personal

hmmm, steering wheel on the right (or middle?), 10 cylinders (if i can count right), turbo-charger ...
absolutely no idea, but looks like a nice ride!

Looks like the red 917/30.

No wait,
it is the 917-10 #017 owned by Bruce Canepa

URY914 is right!

Bruce Canepa's 1972 Porsche 917:

I've always wondered how they get the top-mounted fan to turn on those cars. Electric? Belt driven? Who can tell me?

I believe it is on a shaft run run off the crankshaft. I can look it up in my 917 book at home.

Ask and you shall recieve:

Did you have that just sitting around in your garage?

Cool. Thanks Mike. I think I need to get me one of those. It would make an excellent fart fan for the bathroom

Last one went for 1200 on eBay....which really seems like a killer deal for something so rare........

Do you have two fans?

Or is it a two-piece fan?
