    Authentic 1965-1973 911/912 photos needed for book

    Having finished my 356 Authenticity book in December and 914 Authenticity book last Friday, I need to get serious about updating the 911/912 book first published in 1988. I am currently editing the text and have written most of the new chapters on engine and brakes/suspension/gearbox. What I don't have is color images. The previous book was all black & white and the majority of the original photos were, as well. The new book will be all color. The 356 book has over 900 color images and the 914 book has over 500. These photos are also viewable in high res., online, on demand with the unique Gallery feature.

    I am looking for anything from survivor cars to authentically restored cars -- not necessarily show cars -- any model from 1965-1973. I actually really don't need 1972 911Ts, but do need everything else. I have not yet put together a specific list of detail images, because I am not that far along, but will be by October 1. If you have a suitable car and would like to help out, you can reach me at: 356drb@indy.net If you can send a couple of images with year/model information and build date (if you have it) that would be great. I'll be able to get the build dates on earlier cars.

    The other two books can be viewed at www.tpr.inc.com along with the original 911/912 book, which is in its final printing with just a few remaining in stock. The Gallery was inspired by feedback stating the small black & white images did not have sufficient detail. Short run digital printing solved the black & white problem, and online access was the only thing I could think of to provide better detail without adding hundreds of pages. I think it is really cool!

    My project '68 911 is not particularly authentic, but I think it is also cool...
