Bonjour,
Nous avons possédé deux exemplaires de Porsche 907 équipées du 8 cylindres,
La 907-025 qui avait été achetée auprès de la famille Lang après la sortie de route et que nous avons revendu immédiatement en Suisse à Pierre de Siebenthal.
La 907-011 qui provenait de chez Wicky avec laquelle mon père a participé à de nombreuses compétitions en version Spyder, l’auto a aussi monté un moteur Carrera 10 de 2,4L et la conduite a été passée à gauche.
Ces auto se trouvent maintenant dans des collections privés.
Je peux vous envoyer les photos de ces deux châssis
Sportivement
E.C. POIROT
