Thumbs up 1969 Porsche 917K from "Le Mans" film headlines Gooding auction @ Pebble Beach...

Any guesses as to what this will fetch...?

I think Seinfeld currently owns this car - I've got a picture of him in it from RennSport III.

I bet it goes for between $5 & $6Mil

Different car. Seinfeld car is chassis# 917-022. The ex Siffert car above is #917-024.

I bet 17-22M.

That's pretty strong but you may be right...I'll say between $8-$10M.

I read on another Forum, that Gooding's is estimating it will go for above $20 Mil

This might be the same car - I took this picture in the 80's at a Vintage Event @ Sebring

The 917-30 is my all time favorite, but I wouldn't kick the Gulf cars outta my shop either. lol Saw a couple of these guys run Laguna in anger a few years ago at Rolex. 6 foot flames during downshifts and twitchy noses while the flat 12 goes 8500 up the hill will make your skin crawl. It was unreal.
