Does anyone have a copy of the 1967 Le Mans 24 Hrs lap-chart? I've had enquiry from AAR, and they are particularly interested in the first couple of hours, but so far I have drawn a blank.
Cheers,
Darren

Crumbs! I haven't a clue, but I'd love to see it!

This may help a little bit.
54 cars started, 41 were defined as prototypes, six sports cars, seven GTs. 16 cars finished.
The Fords initially led, Gurney/Foyt leading from the 2nd hour. They were challenged strongly by the Chaparral of Hill/Spence with the Ferrari P4s of Scarfiotti/Parkes and Mairesse/Beurlys.
The Surtees/Hobbs Lola Aston retired soon after the start and the sister LA after 4 hours. The Ickx/Muir Mirage also dropped out around this time and the sister car an hour later.
Any details on the car and drivers will help to check against other books I have.

I've got the hourly positions from Christian Moity's LM book covering 1949-73, but sadly no lap chart.
