This is what Adam was trying to say

Unobtanium Open House
Saturday, September 5th, 2015
12pm to 3pm


I want to invite everyone out to our 2nd Annual Open House at our location in scenic Ravena, NY. We have finally moved our whole operation from the old leather factory in Gloversville, NY. Cars that have not seen the light of day in over a decade are now back in the sun.

There is plenty of parking that is super safe as the Police Station is the only other building on our dead end street. We encourage everyone to bring their Porsche, but if you can't please bring yourself and a few friends. We will have food and drink on hand and the Unobtanium crew of Adam, Matt, and Big John will be there to answer any questions. We might even talk Big John into doing some feats of great strength!

The warehouse normally has 15-20 early Porsche projects to look at as well as shelf after shelf of parts for all your restoration needs. You won't be disappointed if Porsche 356's and early 9 series cars are your passion. In addition, some of our personal collection will be on hand like the 356 A Coupe that won Daytona in 1966. You can also check out the latest shop project - we are converting a 914-6 into a 904 using a real 904 body!

We are hoping Wray from Proshaper can come out with the latest metal he is shaping for our aluminum 550 Spyder project. His website is http://www.proshaper.com if you want to check out his work.

If you want to see pics from last year's open house you can check them out on our blog:

Last year we lined the street in so many Porsches you would have thought you were in Germany! The shop address is:
Unobtanium
14 W Shore St.
Ravena, NY 12143
518-705-1355
Hope to see you there!

Does the website work for IPads? The screen goes blank when trying to hit the site URL.

Yeah, it was gliching out when I was loading the invite. Hope to see everyone there, and everything should be working on ipads, but in person is soooooo much funner.

Seriously, the weather is perfect in upsate NY this time of year, plan a trip, the journey will be fun but the destination with be memorable!

Couple of updates on the open house.

Just confirmed, we are having the best food truck in the area providing FREE food,

The Hungry Traveler - Home

All the food is on us, you order, we pay.

Also, Porsche came through with some nice Sponsorship, so the gift bags will have lots of cool stuff.

That doesn't look like a Registry approved meal plan. Thank goodness you are having real food instead of the suit & tie holiday stuff. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

I have four people in two cars heading up.

We are almost ready for the open house. Just need to move a few more things around, and hang some more banners. The racing ones that Porsche sent us are very cool.

Hope to see everyone there.

Only 1 day away from the big day. Here is a sampling of the gift bags.

Without our gift bag sponsors the bags would be really lame, but thanks to the following folks they are amazing!

Porsche
Recaro
Hagerty
Restoration Design
Goodyear
Exxon/Mobil
Sunoco
Porsche 356 Registry
Early 911S Registry
Zim's Autotechnik
356 Enterprises
The Samba


Hope to see everyone on Saturday.

It was good, filled the parking lot and lots of happy people, and no one left hungry.
