Re: Other Muscle....
The purple car with the green graphics. See attached photo . You can see it in the movie Le Mans with Steve McQueen. I saw it in 2001 when I raced a Daytona. It is a beautiful car.. known as the hippie car

Re: Other Muscle....
Jeff,
That is the long tail.. I am not sure if the short and long tail are two seperate cars or one car with different tail sections.I saw the car on display in 200 or 2001 when I raced at Daytona . I do know that the 917 will run the Mulsanne straight at 225-245 mph .. hour in and hour out for 24 hours ... unreal what some of those old race cars would do!

Re: Other Muscle....
Hey Van....although the 'Hippie' 917 paint is radical it's nothing compared to the 917 'Pig'....what a paint job that one had! .
Have you ever had a chance to run Lemans w/ anything yet? ~ Pete

It is going to be a struggle to make Monterey in August so I am trying to get the Coca~Cola 935 accepted as an alternate so I do not miss the event this year. The pig 917 was a unique looking ride!
