A couple of years ago there was a website that a guy had put up that had pictures of all of Jerry's cars. This guy worked at a building next to the airport in California where Jerry rented two hangers to store all his cars, so he had lots of good shots of them driving to and from the airport, as well as a few group photos that must have been taken when they were cleaning all the cars. One day the site was mysteriously gone. Too bad- I wish Jerry would open a museum or something!

from people i know who are close to this - it may not be the "first" - it is definitly one of the first ones but there is some confusion on which one is actually 1st. It was restored by porsche at great expense after it was aquired by Jerry
I am not 100% sure if it is the orignal color either or even if that was known

- Jerry correct me if i'm wrong - I could be wayyyyyy off base here.

either way it is a hell of a collectable and is deserving of the title and a awsome book end.
His 993 is the last aircooled 911 - and has a show and shine exemption from the gov. german model i believe

Brendan, do you have the url? The wayback machine may be able to shed some light.

He has an RSK as well. At least that is who the Passport Transport driver told me it belonged to as he loaded up my 993 next to it.

I know his mechanic and he said that Jerry's "first" 911 is actually the first one for North America.

Icerbofh-

I wish I kept it. Once it went down a couple of years ago, I lost track of it. If I ever find the pictures- I'll post them here first!

Brendan, that was Chris Campbell's website. Chris tracks a 914 (or at least used to) and is a great guy. For anybody really interested, a cursory Google search will reveal Chris's email address; I'm sure he still has the pages somewhere even if the site is down.
