Yellow. Classic Yellow.

Not really 911 related (but certainly P car material!), and hey, I'm sure you all want to see these.

Taken at Nurburgring. Elva. Stunning car.















And just to keep the yellow car pics going - here's the 917/10 at the Stavelot museum (next to Spa).

elvas were such pretty sports racers of the time. Too bad they were fiendish little racers. They are an important part of Porsche's race history-
Elva had the blessing and some tech help from Porsche to put their four cam motors in the car. I've seen ford and bmw powered examples too. Thanks for posting the pix

Love it! Elvas, huh? Never heard of them. Beautiful, though.
