    Can someone get more information on ceiling lighting? Did that little lightbulb stay on the door frame with the door closed? What use was it?

    Greetings Thierry - There were 2 identical livery in TdF 1969 : A T/R with #121 VIN 118 20 779 and a "regular" 911 with #84.
    On my previous post #143 is #84 and not #121. (according to the co-driver who attended the Tour Auto with #143/#84

    I thought that that car, 18 VQ 75, the Philippe Farjon / Jacques Dechaumel car from the 1969 and 1970 Le Mans, among other significant events, was a 68S. I had it as vin 118 00 120. Is that not correct??

    you are right
    this is a 911s, not an official TR with chassis number in 118 20 XXX - I mispoke or spoke too quickly...
    car has a dual plug engine similar to R or groupe 4 TR
    strange to see that they made mistakes while restoring the car: rear fenders and bumpers ...
