    Steve McQueen's owner's manual for his 1970 Porsche 911 S

    What a catch :-)

    Steve McQueen's owner's manual for his 1970 Porsche 911 S driven on and off screen in Le Mans.

    Steve McQueen’s owner’s manual for his 1970 Porsche 911 S driven on and off screen in Le Mans. Personal 7 x 9 in. owner’s manual for Steve McQueen’s 1970 Porsche 911 S - 200 DIN horsepower @ 6,500 rpm, 7,300 rpm redline, 2,195 cc / 133.9 cubic inch horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine, five-speed manual transmission, independent front and rear suspension. Wheelbase: 102.4 in.

    In the opening scenes of Le Mans, Steve McQueen shares the spotlight with his gray Porsche as he cruises the French country side in what would be one of the few serene diving scenes in the high powered racing film. The Porsche was delivered to the star on the set of Le Mans. The car was registered to McQueen and invoiced to the movie’s property master for use during filming and for McQueen’s personal use. The Owner’s Manual comes complete with its original factory plastic folder. Including Worldwide and US directories of Porsche service centers, a 108-page Owner’s Manual, German ledger for recording engine performance, Speedometer transparency to change dial from MPH to KM/H, Maintenance Record folder with McQueen’s name and address, including maintenance stickers. Accompanied by German invoices and purchase paperwork for the “King of Cool’s” car of choice. All in very good condition.

    So cool. I own some of the original dealer paperwork for McQueens 1969 911S (all in the name of his company, Solar Productions) but not nearly as impressive as your items. Thanks for sharing them.
