A few Porsches I really care for

Post by ST Man »

I though I would add a few pics of the cars in my life and spice up the Porsche section here.
So Mia is my weekend driver she is a 1968 911 S Targa still mattching numbers. Been with me for six years now and had a new paint coat and few other things restored since. Factory only made 925 of these during 67 and 68.

This is Ferry my 1969 911 S Chassis number 119300002. The second long wheel base cae that Porsche made. First owner Ferry Porsche himself it was then sold to Baron Carl von Wendt and made its way here in the late 70s. Car spend 30 years in the freestate where is was modded to new look and messed up but this makes it the perfect project car. This car is also one of two 911 long wheel base prototypes that the factory made. I posted pics of how she looks now and how the car will lookafter restoration. The color should be Irish green like in target picture.

That ugly green beetle wanna be is hideous! You must be embarrased to own it!

Tell you what I'll do you a favour and take it away from you. No cost to whatsoever. :D

I too would get rid of them. I can help by sending a trailer and tow car ;)

A few pictures of Mia at speed. The one thingI never realised was that when a take corners at speed I lift my inside front wheel. A friend took these and that was the first time I realised it . I really love these pics.
The bad quality pic was taken from distance but I managed an accidental drift here...
