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
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.
The list of participants for the Monte Carlo Rally in 1969, with no 85 John Buffum and Jurgen Barth.

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.
