    Brad. Which Hart Ski car? The Seiler one TG-1514? I would definitely count it. I have it as 118 2 0639 though which is already listed. However I believe that it is slightly different to a “normal” "factory build" T/R as while it came with a rallye kit and I believe a special competition gearbox it was built with a 208xxxx engine, which was almost certainly immediately converted/ upgraded by the owner, for Ernst Seiler to race inGp3. I believe that it did not get the rear flares until about 1970. This car is a great example of the customisation of cars of this era and the initial fitting of a stock T engine probably reflected the fact that the owner had his own race engine to fit to it or was building one to his own spec. I suspect the latter as the official documents for the car that I have seen show it with the 208 xxxx engine.

    I've written a short piece on the RHD TRs at this link http://www.robertbarrielimited.com/n...51&p=4&search= and, adjacent to rather than directly on-topic, the 1967 RHD SRs at this link http://www.robertbarrielimited.com/n...43&p=5&search=. Hopefully of interest.

    Hi Hugh,

    I was thinking of the Hart Ski car with the license plate TG-1514 also. The picture I have of the VIN is fuzzy and I got mixed up. Nice to know the proper number. Thank you.

    Interesting read. Sad ending. The Stoop 911S.

    FIA homologation forms added

    Links to the FIA homologation forms have been added to message #1.

    The picture for the 911T (/R) in the homologation form 577 is a cropped version of the picture posted in the thread

    https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...ight=1969+M471

    Rennman had commented in that thread that the wheels and door handle were from a 67, so the picture was likely of a prototype.

    It is also interesting to note that you can see day light coming through the vents above the rear window. It is not clear to me if these vents were open, as shown in the picture, or closed off in the productions cars.

    The T rally as well as the 911R did not have the rain tray for the vents above the rear window hence the day light. If I remember correctly the Hart Ski car was a built up T not a factory T rally.

    Also reflecting back on that homoligation image the 67 door handles and the 4.5 alloy wheels would be lighter than the 68 parts.
