Why being so shy?
There are at least 3 original 917`s known on public roads, one driven by Count Rossi, by then owner of MARTINI spirits, a guy from Calw (Black Forest/Germany) and Emerson Fittipaldi.
On the following pics you can see the famous silver 917 in 1975 driving her back to her new home in Paris after being collected at Porsche`s R & D in Weissach in company of his mechanic. The car is said to have covered the whole distance without a flaw

Following those are pics of a white 917 on the roads around Stuttgart.

Last but not least you see Fittipaldi gunning his 917 through the streets
of his hometown. Car was later sold to David Piper.

Enjoy.

Best,
Marcus
