That was a real 904 with a long race history. My friend Bruce and I talked to him for 10 minutes, he showed us some of the car's history. It was once a mule at LeMans to get the gearing right for the others cars, but did not race that race.

The air intake was a little rough on the outside lip, and very rough inside the porting. Were all original cars like this, or was this repaired after a race?

Pictures:





I think he said that it has the original 4 cyl in it now, but he has a period correct 6 cyl he might be putting in it.

He was very warm in this car, it does not need heat exchangers - no engine insulation means he cooks.

The windshield surround rubber shows this cars real age. I think that perhaps the headlamp covers have been replaced/restored - the car is clean and awesome.
