List of 1967 Sports Purposes 911 and 911S with Rally Kit or SportKit

[HughH]

Hi Jim
Bert raced at least 2 67's as far as I can tell, and at least two 1968L's which are in this other thread on 68 vin numbered cars https://www.early911sregistry.org/fo...11S-L-and-T-Rs
He drove the Fred Baker car 118 1 0449 in 1968 at Sebring and vin 118 1 0429 the Jennings PART car (although that was later on)

My understanding is the three PART Trans Am cars were 308107S, (Netterstrom Trans am car #21 and a 67 car listed in this thread), 118 1 0429 the Jennings car #20 and (I think) 118 1 0482 the Bailey car #22 (also in the 68 list)

Bert drove a Trans Am car that was sponsored by Holbert's in most of 1967. In fact I think that it may be two cars with the same number and livery. One was earlier in the year and the other, he owned, 308162 which is also on the list here but that was not delivered until August 1967 according to the kardex, so cant be the one from earlier in 1967. I am not sure of that vin of the earlier one and I am not sure which is the one in the link to Don's site although Don did have 308162 at one time and some of the photos are in late 67 or 68 which would indicate that it was 308162.

Hey Hugh,

Interesting note about Everett racing two different 911s during the 67 Trans Am...and I think you're probably right. I believe Netterstrom's was the first of the 3 factory Trans Am cars so if Everett was driving one of the factory cars it was probably later in the season. The ownership and driver history of 308162 doesn't include Bert Everett as best as I can tell. Dahm, Leckow, and Frydenlund were the drivers and owners and the car had Trans Am racing history from August 67 through 69, and then a bit more SCCA history in the early 70s before it was parked.

EDIT - In reviewing the Trans Am results I think Everett showed up in a 911 about the same time as Dahm and Netterstrom in Early August...which is about the time all of the Trans Am 911s show as delivered on the Kardex. So maybe just one 911 raced for Everett...and all the pics I see of it look like the same Trans Am spec car.

Hi Jim
You are absolutely correct about him not owning the car. Leckow is shown on the kardex as first owner and would most likely have been the owner during all or most of the relevant period
On the two cars thing that car, 308162, is not shown as "delivered to the buyer" until 25 August 1967 on the kardex. The racingsportscar archive (not just the photos part) show him in a Holbert sponsored 911 #14 at Lime Rock on 30 May, Mid Ohio on 11 June and Bryar on 6 August where the photo below was supposedly taken, all before the kardex "delivered date to buyer" of 25 August but interestingly not before the "delivered from factory" date of 1 May. The delivered to buyer is what i had been working from.

However it may be that the car was delivered by late May and just the paperwork was slow and therefore the kardex date is wrong. To support that, it is unusual that a purpose built race car that had been ordered early in the year and promised to be delivered by 1 June in the letter from POAC would take so long to be delivered, and secondly the photo at the Bryar 250 looks too much like the car at a later date - look at the twin mirrors for example.

This was posted on Concept Carz stating the chassis number for Bert Everett’s 1967 Trans Am spec “Rally Kit” 911 is 308050.
https://www.conceptcarz.com/profile/...rsche-911.aspx

This Porsche was raced in Trans-Am, FIA and pretty much everything else in the 1960s and 1970s by Herbert E. (Bert) Everett. This was one of three totally purpose built race cars built by Porsche to do battle in the Trans-Am series in the United States. The car was delivered through Bob Holbert's garage in Warrington, PA. Holbert prepared the car and supported Bert's racing efforts from 1967 till 1970. The Holbert influence is seen and felt throughout this car; the Aga Blue color, the boxed panel red pin striping and obviously the Holbert #14.
It is believed he entered 119 races, 71 in a Porsche, 35 in some kind of 911, from 1961 to 1975. He competed at Daytona eight times, at Sebring six. His first race in this car appears to have been the Trans-Am at Lime Rock on May 30, 1967 running under the Holbert's Garage umbrella, he finished 6th. At the Bryar 250 in August he won the Under 2-liter class. In March of 1968 he won the Sebring 3-Hours. Second was John Moore's 911 and third, Horst Kwech's Alfa GTA.
In 1970, Bert decided to sell the car to Jeffery Foster. Foster raced the car on a limited basis at The Glen, Bridgehampton, Daytona and other SCCA events. His co-driver was his friend, Bert Everett. The car was run as a 2.0-liter and a 2.5-liter. In the mid-1970's Foster tucked the car away and it slept for 40+ years in his garage.

Great research and find Well done! That is a new vin to me

Also it is very close in vin number to a couple of other "sports purpose" cars - the 2 UK delivered RHD S's and the AAW rally kit 308056

[Rennman]

The Everett, Leckow and Netterstrom cars were 3 of a kind. Basically the same specification. These were full Trans Am spec cars. The 1968 911 L Trans Am version was the same as these first three.

308139S, originally loaned to Jochen Rindt for a personal car for a year, then the car was converted from Porsche Salzburg to a Rallye car and did many Rallyes in Europe with 2 Drivers. Then Porsche Salzburg sold it to a private Company in Austria called FUNDA and they also used it for rallying. No factory options.
