At 55 seconds into the video I posted right above your post, there is a fellow talking about the 917 from Modena Motorsports.
I did some sniffing around and based on this fourm's posts, Modena Engineering in Germany did the restoration over 10 years ago.
Porsche Forum @ CKnet - PORSCHE 917 K Ch.Nr. 917024
Would be nice to know the history of the current motor. From what little bit I read, Sieffert loaned the car for use in the movie and Solar Productions had to borrow a motor from Zuffenhausen and then return it after the production.
Would be sweet if they mated the car with that loaned motor again.
I am thinking hammer price - $23 million US.
