That is part of it. There is more to the model than the Chassis #.

There was 908-001, 908-015, etc. This car also has a name that goes with that.

oh....i think its the 908-022.   I think it came in 2nd at Sebring and was the qualifying/testing car for Le Mans.  the car number was changed to 29 for the actual race and filming.

I don't believe he is involved.

I really don' t know how to give any hints without giving it away. Make, Chassis # and Model.

I'll chalk that one up as a typo.
