What is your all time favorite automobile?

What is your all time favorite automobile?

This is the easiest one for me to answer. It’s the Porsche 917. It’s one of the few cars that was the star of a movie (that wasn’t a cartoon).

I first saw it at the 24 hours of Daytona in 1970.

It was the first time I’d seen a car go over 200MPH in person in my life and I was a pre-teen at the time.

It would go on to dominate 2 different series of racing. It’s what got me fully hooked on endurance racing.

Here is the car on NASCAR turn 4 at well over 200 driven by my then favorite driver, Jo Siffert.
