Must inform the sad news that the Swedish co-driver and rally driver Lars Helmer has passed away. He was co-driver to B.Waldegård and they saw to it that the Porsche 911 had great success in rally competitions. He was very helpful with stories from rallies and shared his private photographs. A very kind and always cheerful person who will be missed. A lot of my pictures are from his photo album. Here are some pictures of him from various rallies
Lars Helmer reunited his old rally car as he drove in 1967, as seen on previous images. Photo from 2007.
