    1968 Daytona 24 hour race

    We are looking for color pictures of the # 36 1965 Porsche 911 driven by Wilbur Pickett in this race. Presently doing a complete restoration of the car and some color pictures would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks

    I am going through some old slides right now getting them put on DVD.

    Can you describe the car a little bit?

    John, Have you checked with Lou Galanos? Sure he'll have pics of it.

    Like lots of old racers, parts is parts...

    The car looked scruffily cool first time I saw it, details like NASCAR door latch plate/pins, cage and original seat.
    Loving the Fuchs & AR mags setup and original graphics, can't wait to see it finished.
