The 50th Porsche Parade 2005 at Hershey,was the largest event of Porsches I've been to. I realized that no matter how car,or Porsche crazy I am, it's possible to burnout from Porsche overload. I did manage to photograph enough 914s to make this topic worth viewing. I ask anyone with photos of this event to please post them.
I will start with some of the vintage race 914s that were on display, starting with this 1971 914-6GT Daytona winner. Attached thumbnail(s) |
