Hello Nikolaus, thank you for pointing that out. Amazing! I have looked at these photos hundreds of times and never noticed until now.

I really don't know... Maybe the GT raced with 3 stripes at one time? I don't think so but can not say for sure...

Also, thank you for the photo contributions. ; )

It is interesting that the marking on Targa Ironing (914 043 2542) for the restoration was not properly implemented. There were four yellow stripes, and not as on the pictures where you see only three. A picture as proof (appendix).

Yours sincerely,

Nikolaus Straub
