More Old Photos

A friend of mine, Christian Barsacq, shooted this Ferrari 512 BB in the "Tertre Rouge" corner. Who was the driver...?

According to the Le Mans annual, Xhenceval pitted à 11h09 for refueling & front body repairs.

 

Thanks for the great photo Giotto! I feel fortunate in having seen one of these 512 Boxers run recently at VIR. What a fantastic car, an absolute monster! I would have loved to have seen them race at Le Mans back then.

512 Boxer #26685 n°75 was entered by french Ferrari importateur Charles POZZI for Le mans 1980. Drivers were Lucien GUITTENY, Paul LIBERT and Gérard BLEYNIE. Here's another photo after BLEYNIE had crashed the car.

Oops!
Looks like I'm wrong & you're right :-(

 

Is that Peter Coltrin standing behind Jenks?

is that a DROGO ?

 

Not a Ferrari it is a great Abarth 1300 OT Periscopio

 

The same close-cropped hair, the same glasses, same size and same looks ! Oh Yes ! I think so,

Look photos book's Peter Coltrin by Chris Nixon, page 121, it's the Ferrari's Jean Behra and It's the right place for a good shoot.

Question ? Where is "Portos"

 

Can somebody help with a picture of the 206 Dino, being dislpayed by the Factory at Brussels 1968 Motor Show?

350 Can Am 0858 or 0860

 

Does anyone have the contact adresses of these two people?

Agreed, but no real clues to the location. The only possible hint in those photos is the lack of strut / windshield-mounted rear view mirror. In all their Can-Am races, the two cars both had them fitted. So perhaps this is an earlier test session. But why park on grass at Monza or Modena Autodrome ?

I found this other (very poor quality) photo of Jonothan Williams testing the 350 Can-Am at Monza on here, a while back:

If you check the JPG code (rt click on properties) you see "Daytona"

 

Yes, Jim - but I also see '412P' - which we both knew was wrong !

 

The fire extinguisher makes me think it's later after the factory was done with them. Do you remember ever seeing a fire extinguisher in factory cars?

Later in Australia? 0858?

 

Can't say as I do, Jim - but then I would guess Chris Amon was fairly sensitised to them after Monaco '67.

There's also that additional dial above the dash - A separate Oil temperature gauge, possibly ? Hmmm. Dunno.

 

I have post the pics in large size. in this way, the details
will be more visible.

j'ai poster les photos en plus grand format.
de cette façon, les détails seront plus visibles.

thank

 

Hi Bruno!
Il serait intéressant de connaitre la provenance de ces photos. Après comparaison entre les photos de mes archives, j'ai la conviction qu'il s'agit de #0860 juste après son acquisition par Pierre Bardinon. Les photos sont certainement prises au Mas-Du-Clos au tout début des années 70. L'extincteur, et ce qui semble être un casque intégral (en bas à gauche du cockpit) sont des indices. D'autres détails diffèrent par rapport à #0858, qui est la seule autre voiture possible.

I think the CanAm car is #0860. The photos are certainly from the early 70's after Pierre Bardinon bought the car. I asked Bruno about the origin of the photos. Isn't that a helmet in the lower left part in the cockpit?

 

bonjour Giotto

l'avant de la voiture qui est poser au sol ressemble à cet avant là, 0844 Modena 1967, aux mains de Chris Amon
les cylindres sont au centre du V


et le cockpit à celui là Riverside 1967:0860 ici les prises d'air de chaque coté doivent alimenter les cylindres de part et d'autre du V


recharger les photos sur le bureau elles sont plus grandes.
si tu veux traduire, moi mon Anglais. . .

la provenance des photos, (celles postées plus haut). elles sont issues de cette collection, Auto Passion

 

After seeing the great pics of the 512 BBLM #78 on page 148 of this thread I realized that I had a model of it in my 1/43rd collection. I had it built in the middle 80's to represent the way the car looked when it finished Lemans in 1980, right down to the flat red rear quarter panel and the duct tape holding much of the front end together. If I can't have the real thing, then I'll console myself with this miniature.

This is a great thread, truly a wealth of knowledge and history.
