Cool Canepa museum in Scotts Valley across the street from my wife's office. Looks like they have a 914-6 GT!

Tom (Carreraguy) and I saw his museum in the works when they had an open house last November. This was before they had the -6 GT. When you go, ask him to see his VW bus 993 twin turbo project... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/shocked[1].gif)

I was on his web site several weeks ago, 914-6 I believe is for sale...at the Historic Races at Laguna his red 917 is always a hit.

This car belonged to and was restored by Mark Allin and Precision Automotive Restoration of Newburyport, MA...this car underwent a 100point body-off restoration. None better than this shop. There was a 7 or 8 page pictorial of this car in the Jan/Feb '05 issue of Vintage Motorsports

These people stink (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/blink.gif) Let's play count the 959's... The last time I saw this many in one place was at the Porsche factory in 1987.

Canepa is 'updating' the 959s so they are street legal in the US.... |
