Hey Thomas,
any plans yet to come? I need to get going on the below ;-)

By the way, is this in Stockholm 1965 or in Germany?

The orange #9, I have seen this picture with reference to Pauli Toivonen at the Acropolis. I believe this to be his practice car 119300004.

thanks for that information. I have had this picture recorded as a Toivonen car, and an Acropolis car for a long time but had not made the connection to the practice car. That makes a lot of sense now as elsewhere I had that chassis (119 300 004 also known as 320-017) listed as his practice car but no photo. it looks like a factory 69's rally car and the yellow paint strip down near the jack point line up with other werks car that year but i had not made the connection - probably as i did not expect a practice car to be running a race number, just a rally plate at most (and it does look like an acropolis rally plate)

And from a different thread (http://www.early911sregistry.org/for...irst-LWB/page7)

320017 built in June 68. Has swb lights etc. vin 119300004 and was used by factory until Sept 69. Was Pauli Toivonen's practice car for several rally events including the Acropolis in which he won overall. Car was designated GT-S by factory. Has really cool alu 100 liter center fill gas tank.

119300004 sold by factory in Sept 69 to Eduardo "Chachi" Dibos, mayor of Lima, Peru. Ran "Los Caminos del Incas" rally.

What I know of early LWB cars and SWB lights. As I noted 119300004 has SWB lights. I know that 119300007 does not. 119300003 had SWB lights and hand formed flares not the factory stamped versions of the production cars. Brian Long's book "Porsche 911 a Definitive History 1963-1971" shows, on pages 110-116, at least four different LWB cars with SWB lights.

Hi again Sanders. If you have any more information or recent photos of 119300004, I'm sure the board would love for you to share it.
These were very special cars, the early LWB racers (GTS and rally spec)
