WHAT MAKES THE PORSCHE 917K 1971 LE MANS WINNER SO SPECIAL?
The era of the 5-liter Group 5 sports car came to an end at Le Mans in 1971, but these monsters of the Mulsanne would go out with a bang, not a whimper. No fewer than seven of Porsche's mighty 917s would participate in the 24 hour race, with the Martini-liveried 917K driven by Gijs van Lennep and Helmut Marko (yes, THAT Helmut Marko) taking overall victory and setting a total distance record that would stand for 40 years.
DOES THIS MODEL HAVE OPENING PARTS?
Yes, opening engine cover.
