  • A driving report on a PORSCHE 917 is not possible?
    Yes it is!
    The SECTOR live! did a test drive with a beautiful replica of the legendary racing car from the film "Le Mans" by Steve McQueen.
    How was the Porsche 917 developed?
    Why was he built at all?
    What success did he have in motorsports?
    Who was responsible for the production?
    This short documentation gives you a few answers, using beautiful film sequences of a 917 replica with a Porsche Carrera engine.
    This is a non-commercial private production from SECTOR live!

    I helped assemble an original 917k from scratch, new chassis, body interior, wiring harness. Missing, engine, transmission. Engine, trans. purchased used from Vassic-Polac (sp) in southern Calif. Used in CAN-AM series until racing series was shut down. Started 1973, finished for show at Porsche Parade 1978, Snow Mass Colorado. A winner!! All original!! What a challenge to finish, no assembly manual, HA.

    I got one these running around my home town. I gave it a through inspection at last Father’s Days Cars and Coffee. Oh and he brought along it’s stablemate a GT40; also in a Gulf livery. It brought the show to a complete standstill. So much for the Lambos, McLarens and Ferrari’s getting all the attention.

    Many things may copied, few things can created! 917 & the C-111 are examples. For me, the fact that either/both exist is comforting. The desire, logic & passion is no better expressed! Yes, there many others that desire respect & praise as due, but 917! Many thanx 👍 👍, be safe 🦊

Dam him who invented auctioning and bidding!! Would love to own someday..have anyone saw Hotwheels's gulf models?? They released it chrome light blue and gloss orange...wonder if its in real!!
