wow, a couple of cool cars here (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)


let me tell you a little more about car #5 - my Sporto

this one was bought by the 1st owner on Friday, June 11, 1971 - from the Porsche Center Raffay in Hamburg, Germany
he kept the car until 1983, when he gave the car to the 2nd owner - for free (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
this guy repainted the car red (IMG:style_emoticons/default/slap.gif) instead of the original signal orange
but there's still original 1st paint in the engine comparment and the gas tank area

in 1987 he sold the car to the 3rd owner, who did a big engine rebuild
after he moved to another city he parked the car in a garage ... until I bought it recently (about 18 years later (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif) )

it's high grade original, including all numbers, engine decals, interior, toolkit, service manual, owner's manual, ...

in September 1973 it got a warrenty replacement transmission (shown in the service record)
VIN, engine number, paint code and body number are all matching - and the warrenty transmission number matches too
so, I would call it a perfect survivor - apart from the repaint in wrong colour
something like a barn find (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

here are some of the first pics I've got from the car ...




and here are some photos of the car in his new envirement (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
