Good Porsche 904 book?

[aurfalien]

Hi,

Would any one happen to know of a good Porsche 904 book?

Hows this one;

I'm looking for lots of pictures, any language is fine as I'm not too concerned with what's written

It's not a 904 specific book, but White Racers from Zuffenhausen by Karl Ludvigsen has a nice section on 904 and how it came to be.

 

This book also covers 906, 907, 908, 909 and 910 racers from the '60s.

Thanks George, looks like a nice book.

Oddly enough seem to be few books dedicated to the 904 for some reason.

Don't have this in the collection but might be worth checking out.

I just looked in the above book and it has 8 pages dedicated to the 904.  I could scan those pages and send them to If you only want the 904 info.  It is a good book for the early years.

Hi Gary and thank you.

I didn't get the PMs but went ahead and ordered the book used for ~$10.

Thanks again.

I have a copy of Jerry Pantis’s book on “plastic” Porsche’s but it’s buried at the moment pending a west coast move. I’ll have to take a look when I land.
