Hey look I'm vintage guy now!

Thanks to local guy Colin for my first taste of vintage Porsche.

Never rusty '65 912 tub completely media blasted and sprayed in '97. Gamroth built 2.7 to "RS" (or at least higher) specification. 901 with short gears. Webers, MSD, Carrera oil cooler, roll bar, harness's, Carrera suspension, deep 6's, "S" calipers, Elephent Racing bushings, etc., etc.

This thing is way fun! I don't even remember my '85 now.

It's not really Albert Blue and it isn't purple either. Evidently it is an OEM Ford color called Bright Sapphire.
