Unreal Van! . A serious congrats on your purchases....it's nice to see someone w/ their priorities straight!!!? . So what 917 is for sale? . Although any and all are great, the 917 Can-Am cars are still ringing in my ears....35 years later!!! .

The purple car with the green graphics. See attached photo . You can see it in the movie Le Mans with Steve McQueen. I saw it in 2001 when I raced a Daytona. It is a beautiful car.. known as the hippie car

Jeff,
That is the long tail.. I am not sure if the short and long tail are two seperate cars or one car with different tail sections.I saw the car on display in 200 or 2001 when I raced at Daytona . I do know that the 917 will run the Mulsanne straight at 225-245 mph .. hour in and hour out for 24 hours ... unreal what some of those old race cars would do!

Hey Van....although the 'Hippie' 917 paint is radical it's nothing compared to the 917 'Pig'....what a paint job that one had! .
Have you ever had a chance to run Lemans w/ anything yet? ~ Pete
