'Versuch' Cars

[LongRanger]

. . . there is also 310001s that was found in South Africa by Greg Bailey on 3/20/2012. It is shown as Versuch on the Chart in the thread from the DDK. Does any one know what book that list of Versuch cars came out of, I would like of read it . . .

Hey, Bret . . .

Well . . . I'd really like to see that DDK 'Versuch' chart. Right now, all that I have is this one . . . from ST Man

I'm also a little shy about putting some cars up here because I haven't always found the particular passage/document that mentions/connects to Versuch, so . . .



And please feel free to add your posts to this thread, You Guys! . . .

Hi Rick
No my body number is not shown on that chart, but mine is definitely 67 Versuch, What I find interesting is that Gregs car with body and chassis # the same is the only 67 found. Do you know which book that chart came out of. I don't know if franks car was Versuch.

Hey, Bret . . .

That listing that I posted came from Leon (ST Man)

As for Mr Beck --- well . . . he responds when he responds, so . . .


What I find fascinating is how diverse these Versuch cars are. And also, how little --- as in NOTHING . . . is known about their lives/roles when they were w/ Porsche KG

Hi Rick
I will look on the ddk thread again it might tell what Book it came from. I might of gotten it from you! I am finding this fascinating but also frustrating. I crawled under this thing again today and the transmission really intrigues me, date code of 3665 and #11 What is in that gear box and engine!! all it would take is a little Build sheet. or a conversation with the original owner/machinist/????

My understanding is this is not from a book but a compilation of information from this board and DDK and possibly other areas by a number of contributors to the board over the years including Leon who from my memory ( maybe incorrect) collated this particular version which is much neater than the version I have

Mine is not on that list.

Waiting for Kardex.
