Can you date this picture at Porsche werks?

[Eric Gratz]

The red car in the foreground of the original photo may have been one of the safety cars at the 1969 Solituderennen at Hockenheim. Both have a white rectangle of some sort above the rear view mirror. The car being escorted looks like a Chevron B8. Roy Johnson drove a Chevron B8 BMW in the race held on 13 July 1969.

I did dig deeper…

I found in a master thesis work
„Der Konzern Aggregate-Produkt-Entstehungs-Prozess Implementierung und Realisierung im Aggregate Werk“

- The Group Aggregate-Product-Development-Process Implementation and realization in the aggregate plant -


following passages:

„ Serienvorbereitungsphase
Der Vorserie 2 Monate vorgeschaltet werden die Vorserien-Freigabe- Fahrzeuge (VFF) in den Werks-Pilothallen mit serienwerkzeugfallenden, Unbemusterten Teilen gebaut. Mittels der VFF sollen Fertigungsanlagen und - prozesse optimiert sowie Passung und Maßhaltigkeit der Zusammenbauten mit vorliegender Teilequalität geprüft werden. Die Produktionsversuchsserie (PVS, 6 Monate vor SOP) und NullSerie (0S, 3 Monate vor SOP) werden mit den verfügbaren Serienbetriebsmitteln unter Fertigungs- bzw. Serienbedingungen aufgebaut. „

„Series preparation phase:
Two months in advance of the pre-series, the pre-series release vehicles (VFF) are built in the factory pilot halls with non-sample parts that come from series production tools. The VFF is intended to optimize production systems and processes and to check the fit and dimensional accuracy of the assemblies with the existing part quality. The production trial series (PVS, 6 months before SOP) and pilot series (0S, 3 months before SOP) are set up with the available series resources under production or series conditions.“

I only yet discover this thread and message but thank you

Any idea what a "TYPISIERUNGS-FZG (FarhZeuG)" is?

Any idea what a "TYPISIERUNGS-FZG (FarhZeuG)" is?

This would be a Car that is used for "homologation" for type approval

[928cs]

So a car that has been submitted to the homologation authority, right?

Do you know if it's possible to have access to the homologation records in Germany?
I know a car (not a 911, but a 928) described as such into the Porsche records and it would be fabulous to prove that it was effectively used to homologate the model.
