LA Toy and literature Show 2004
Here the "crew" is looking at a 1920 Model "T" as the curator "Skip" gives details of its future restoration - Nethercut Museum.
This was a shop called "Rusty Bottoms" an all he does is floorpans.
At Dunkels : 550 Spyder replicar ~ no 4-cam motor
At Wilhoits' shop : 1600 4-cam motor, but it has fuel injection and electronic ignition system - he is still able to bring our 356's into the 21st century!
At Dunkels' : unrestored 904 with original 4-cam motor and spare 911 S engine for touring.
At Dunkels' : restored 904 with original 4-cam motor
At Dunkels' : only street legal Carrera 6 ( legal mistake at California BMV gives us one of a kind! )
This mexican auto body shop takes these cars in and takes 1 1/2 to 2 years to complete!
Bill, Todd and Bills' daughter Cyndi selling toys at the literature meet.
At the literature meet : Richard and Roland
(retired salesman for Porsche Diesel Tractor
sales ) and blow up poster of a Porsche Tractor
engine.
Just a small shot of the literature and sales brochures for sale or trade at the meet. If it was Porsche , it was there. Harry was able to purchase a one off Porsche prototype jacket that never made it into production!
At Bill Perrone's shop : His beautiful RS60 center seat Spyder. he still races it at Vintage races.
At Dunkel Brothers': A lot full of 356's !
Bill Perrone's gorgeous 550 Spyder which he still campaigns at Vintage and SCCA events. It is as quick as it looks!
In Califonia these cars can be driven year 'round and still look great as this 356 A roadster does.
There was never a shortage of stories about these cars and how they had done miraculous things.
