In Response To: Re: 917 road cars ()

I have a load of 917 photos on my computer I can't put online (because I don't own them or they're not already available online like the ones I put in my original post) but this is one set I love, from the 1970 Brands Hatch BOAC 1000km:

This photo in particular, I bought a print and have it framed on the wall, it's very cheap:

And in case you don't know about that race, have a look at this:

Here's the Porsche victory poster

: Hello Foxy,

: thanks for sharing. It is the right contribution at the
: right time. The Porsche 917 K was the car driven by
: Jo Siffert in the 70's.
: The licence plate also fits perfectly to the 917 K. And
: CW stands for the city of Calw, which is not too far
: away from Stuttgart, the cradle of the 917 and the
: "boxer city" in general.

: Best wishes
