1971 Porsche 917/10

This was one of the entrants in the Pre 1974 Le Mans Cars race at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 2000.

It's the 1971 Porsche 917 of Ottokar von Jacobs with the 4,999cc version of the Porsche Type 912 Flat-12 engine. It's described in the programme of the event as a Porsche 917PA, but it is in fact a Porsche 917/10 that was derived from the 917PA, and which competed in the 1971 Can-Am Series driven by Jo Siffert. Ottokar von Jacobs' car is chassis 917/10-016.
