I was under the impression that this Zasada car was actually one of the 1971 Safari ST's under the skin ? (probably the Zasada entry at 71 Safari) . The one FG1227 owned a couple years ago

You could be right and I think I used to have the various cars sorted out .... but now I'm not sure. Maybe Buffum's 71 is Zasada's old 71 Safari car?
Jim - I hope I didn't give away the plot :D
In the list of results from Riihimäki Rally (Finland) 4-5 January 1969, John Buffum USA at 14 place. He drove a 911 T in group 3. Even Waldegård and Larrousse drove in the rally but with 911 S.

Thanks Thomas. The book says he did 19 rallies in Europe ("mostly fast TSDs") between March 68 and April 69. Also mentioned:
10th - 69 Lyon-Charbonnaires-Stuttgart-Solitude
Class Win - 69 Trifels Rally
15th - 69 Criterium Neige et Glace Rally (France)
Also, there were 224 entries for the 69 Monte Carlo! The 911T he used at the Monte was purchased used from Helmut Klocke who ran the German National Championship rallies. He brought that car back to the States at the end of 1969.

Barth was scheduled to co-drive but couldn't make it at the last minute. Steve Behr - who was stationed at the Army base with Buffum and had no rally experience - filled in.
