Thank you for showing us the current day photos. To the owner :

Not that it really matters....... but in 1973 at Targa Florio. This car still had the standard factory horn push.

Concerning the photo on this page titled "Saison 1980" (showing No. 8 at Tour Auto 1980). This is the wrong car . 5105 RB 34 was No. 2 (Zanini) as stated here in text. So it is just the wrong photo. The pictured No. 8 (J. Almeras - 'Tilber') wore plate 6417 RS 34.....a differant car. That why the differant silver side window trim. Some other photos displayed show the Zanini car at Tour Auto 80 with black side window trim. And there are even better photos on the web of this.

I remember this special RSR in period, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1979 and 1980.... it was one of the quickest RSR in France ! Used by the best period driver like Bernard Beguin and Frequelin.

The car have many different sponsors and have been probably dismanteled many times before racing that will explain details like black / chrome window frames... normal on a racing car !

All the pics are with the same plate number, so it's the same car !

Amazing race history !

all the photos you show of cars from 1976 on have black window frames. But the photo of an Esso blue & red 911sc look with 934 stlye flairs (J. Almeras - 'Tiber' / No. 8)has chrome/silver window frames.

Then the other photos of Esso / blue - red in 1980 are back to black window frames.

Something is not correct (at least with that photo being included. I highly doubt side window frames are going to be changed from silver to black ..then back to silver ...then back to black. I do not think that particular photo is the same 069 chassis.

Just one oddball thing I noticed , alot of great info. here and on your website in general. I love it , thank you for making it available.


Do you know if this car was ever in a wreck ? That's alolt of competition kilometers to go without.
