Great seeing Marty again and witness the very first public showing I believe of #40 at Luft 8 since he acquired it!

What a cool car! Why I didn't take interior pics, I just don't know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)




@Marty , Does your shirt have a Pennsylvania emblem on it?

Matt


Yessir Matt, whenever I'm attending a Porsche themed car show I wear one of the Tees from a 914World event gathering. Usually strikes up a convo about the 914 gathering, National location and how the 914s in general are a hot topic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)
We provide raffle prizes to most of the annual gatherings, and most of these organizers will gift us with a couple of the event Tees...and we actually wear them and promote the 914World get-togethers.

For #40, which is a super car.
Has anyone ever listed the unique features and parts of this car in a single list?


AJ Serrano has spent a lot of time documenting a number of GT cars. Here's his pages on the Sonauto #40:

@Maltese Falcon , Marty , just curious. Did this car run with a plexiglass rear and side windows during the LeMans race?

Cheers, Dion

No cover for the oil cooler plumbing !
That must have been very toasty.
Could they have run it without it ?

AFAIK the rear has always been plexi, and door windows always glass + factory roll-up style

I shall check (over this weekend) for any traces of sheet metal screws that might have once been there.
Never thought about those lines being covered by a metal plate; if so Claude & Guy had a toasty left-foot- warmer on that cold & rainy weekend (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

it looks like the photos are at wolfram's house back in the 80s?
if you go back to page 4 of this thread there is a photo there.
he was the guy who first restored it back then?
its probably still incomplete as a restoration when photos shot.

EDIT go to page 8.
there are more photos posted from wolfram.
just after he got hold of it back then.
had been used as a road car.
has the black rear fender stone guards on it.

those black and white shots are definitely from the 80s.

...2 brass oil lines tucked tightly at the floorboard, covered by a small piece of black felt material. No traces of any sheet-metal screw holes for a cover plate @rgalla9146

Adjusts closer to the steering & pedals, very smooth actuation into the detents.

All back in place, now moving on to our transport trailer maintenance; because we were just notified by the Rennsport Reunion 7 Comittee that #40 has been selected to be in the main tent exhibit. See y'all in Monterey (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
