"After all, it was Ruf who volunteered to keep building the 911 in 1977 when Zuffenhausen considered discontinuing production."

Here's the famous pic from the article ... after I cropped and enlarged it last night to 'help' Todd with his quandry about 9 x 16 Fuchs ... so all of the images will be in one thread for any who find it in the future!

I'm bumping this thread to post a link to an article I have written about the NATO and a couple cars that have popped up in Japan that look convincingly like it. Not surprisingly, Warren posted the RUF HOUSING R&T article originally, as he was always adding great content to our community and I hope my piece sheds a little more light on the somewhat mysterious RUF NATO. See my article here:

Awesome article, I enjoyed it thoroughly.....gives "RUF housing" a new definition.
