Wayne's Pick of Best Porsche Photos...

[Wayne 962]

Many of you know that we have the largest collection of Porsche Photos in the world (no BS on that either). However, there are some neat things that have been lost in the archives, that I thought I would point out for those of you who haven't seen it. These photo collections (most taken by yours truly) are incredible collections of photos from events that will probably never happen again.

From the other thread, Vasek Pollak's garage:

A most impressive collection if I do say so myself! Check out the full photo archive here: http://www.pelicanparts.com/swapmeet_pics/swapmeet_pic_index.htm

wayne...i've always searched through your photo archives.
all i can say is VERY IMPRESSIVE, i've caught myself looking through them for hours
you definately have enough for a "what is what" book....hmmmmm i see a trend here

[DByers]

Thanks for the links. Its nice to have access to all those pictures. Now get back to work on that book!!!

Wayne... a most impresive collection! Just a thought on how I can get something without working too hard for it. Could all those photos be transferred to a CD and maybe like the current CD you include with orders include the picture CD with the order? Or depending on cost to produce, something like "For an additional $? we'll include our fantastic photo gallery.

[Wayne 962]

The photo gallery was complete on the early CDs. Now it's just too big to fit on a single CD. I don't have any plans to offer just the gallery on CD - too much time, too little return. However, I figure in about a year or two, the writeable DVDs will be close to becoming a standard. We would probably burn it on DVD with all the photos complete...

Wow! Sweet baby jesus!

Is this for real??

Wonderful
Loved photos from the Porsche Factory Museum - some may say "preserved" but they looked caged in a "Zoo" to me
You should have left the door latch unbolted.

Are those 917 engines on the top shelf??

[Wayne 962]

Yes, that is for real. That really is Dave Buhain sitting there in the flesh!

No ****! Those are crated 917 engines. I told you these photos were cool. Those engines were stolen a short time thereafter...
