Was that Hans Herrmann sitting next to Herbert? Awesome!

Legendary, Legendary, Legendary, Legendary, Legendary, Legendary, Legendary, nice vocabulary retard.

Ever since I was a kid and saw the movie I always thought the 917 was(is) the most bad ass car of all time.
-
It is a great car, pretty neat that they use the frame as an oil cooler to save weight.
-
Both 022 and 024 were sold by the factory. No races were listed as being run by those cars. 034 was used for the filming of the LeMans. That info according to a listing of all 917s, what races they ran, how far and how long, etc.
I would love to see one of these in person. I just might this June as I'll be passing by Stuttgart...might as well stop and check out the new museum.

Not this car but rather chassis 917-022.

Jerry Seinfeld now owns the car

It wouldn't have been this car on display. It would be the Solar productions car. It is chassis NO. 22 ( currently owned and occasionally run by Jerry Seinfeld. This car is chassis 024 and has no race history. It shows as being delivered to Jo Siffert from Porsche. It's certainly among the lowest and maybe the lowest mile 917 anywhere. It might have been used in the film because Siffert was involved. It certainly didn't ever race proper as far as 917 race history is concerned.

My favourite race car of all time, probably due to the movie. Did anyone ever track down the rest of the restoration video?
