    A NC dealer is showing no. 17 of the 911R cars at the RENNFEST. This was a car found by Dr. Warren Eads in Mexico. I am a historian interested in how he came across it and what was paid, if anybody remembers that far. I lost a chance to buy one for $7000 in 1970 when an actor down on his luck was selling it near the Sunset Strip in West Hollywood but didn't realize it wasn't just someone's custom car.
    The ownership chain is:
    1967 Porsche Typ 911R
    Chassis No. 118 990 17
