DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

I remember being dazzled by Mr Canford's efforts back when he 1st restored (re-animated, more/like) 9110301242, on the Early 911S Registry --- what? . . . 8 years, ago now? . . . http://www.early911sregistry.org/forums/showthread.php?58844-Restoration-of-a-RHD-2-2S Got curious + followed the story h...

Brief update on my contacting the Sifferts . . . A friend had a chance to actually speak w/ Jo Siffert's daughter Veronique. Seems that my letter to her was received, but . . . she was too busy to get back to me. Then again --- not much to say, either, really. She was 2 years-old when her father pas...

One more thing . . . .

In 1970, Mr Siffert's Porsche concession was located at Route Nueve 1700, Fribourg Suisse

This is not the address that's on the Kardex

That address appears to be a residence

I have a pretty strong suspicion that 9110301059 was w/ Mr Siffert when he was track-side during the filming of the movie ' Le Mans .' There are several photos of a dark-green 911, carrying Swiss-registered plates ' FR 10032 ' . . . which seem to be personal plates issued out of Fribourg --- his hom...

Regarding the Siffert s . . . Thanks to a French-speaking/writing friend, I sent letters --- in French + w/ photographs . . . to Phillipe + Veronique , Jo Siffert ’s children, as well as Laurent Missbauer --- a journalist + reputed authority on Matters Siffert Expensive effort --- ~ $ 150 for all th...

Good for you, John . . . . . . and welcome . . . . . . and --- for inspiration . . . http://www.early911sregistry.org/forums/showthread.php?58844-Restoration-of-a-RHD-2.2S. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v22/Alan.UK/1970%20S%202/alan1.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v22/Alan.UK/1970%20S%202...

. . . I think this was was sold at auction here in Germany last year . . . Different car --- VIN = 9111301180 Jo Siffert owned at least four 911s, that I know of --- including the ' 71 that you're referring to. See post # 491 , below . . . http://early911sregistry.org/forums/showthread.php?62225-Te...

OK . . .

Got some addresses

Next steps are to . . .

1) Write-up some letters --- in French

2) Run down to CVS w/ my thumb-drive + knock-out some photos

3) Put-together + mail some packages overseas

4) Cross my fingers

Thanks, John . . . I've been digging into the car's past for a while, now --- so, I expect all of this will take some time Meanwhile? . . . . please feel free to pass me along Siffert's name is probably more-recognized in Europe --- and so I'm hoping someone will have a way to contact his family + d...
