...Just released! Over a period of several months, I had the unique opportunity to be present during the construction of the "Last New 917K" by Carl Thompson. These are photos that Carl himself has yet to see, until now. As a "fly on the wall", I tried to document what I saw, when possible by capturing these images. There are more photos yet to post, comments to write, etc., a work in progress that I wanted to share with the rest of you after almost six years. I hope you enjoy viewing these photos as much as I do.
For those of you not familiar with this project, you can see additional build photos, comments and interesting details by visiting Carl Thompson's website located here http://www.pbase.com/917carl/root, and let's not forget to mention Gunnar Racing's photo sequence of the 917K body reproduction, please go here http://www.gunnarracing.com (at the top, see Project Section, Page #2, then scroll down to "917-037". Great photo sequence!
Thank you Carl! Thanks Kevin!
