Mid-70s or later Le Mans??? Rear spoiler looks too big for anything earlier, but narrow arches and not much of a front spoiler, so probably an ordinary private entry. |

Maybe the approx date is containable by the stickers on the car. |

It could instead be US for the safety net mesh instead of side window, and that door handle looks old-style. Maybe even a 1969/70-ish car racing several years later?? |

Note the "EXXON"-logo - is there any European country, where this name was used in the past (this film is from 1999)? AFAIK not, the brand was named always "ESSO" over here. |

it's 90s from Daytona I believe either 964 or 993 -- Last edit: 2013-12-06 10:44:45 |

A few things from the photo. - The car is definitely a 964. Has a rear wing but no enlarged front wheelarches. So no Carrera RSR or Turbo S. - Exxon sticker on the windscreen : IMSA series from 1992 onwards. - Just above the front bumper, a large sticker "Shell mit...". It actually says "Shell mit M2000", and was found on all 964s racing in the german Carrera Cup of the early 1990s. And only there. - The race number on the door is hidden, but it's in a red circle, also typical of the Carrera Cup. With all that, in all logic, it must be a former Carrera Cup car doing a stint across the Atlantic. But were they called "911 Carrera Cup" or "911 Carrera RS" ? |
