1964 Porsche 904 Carrera GTS. A masterwork in the annals of badging: cursive lettering, gold-anodised finish, canted 45-degrees, and unique placement flowing over the curved transition from rear deck to rear quarter panel

Porsche Continental. The use of the Continental nameplate was discontinued in 1948 by the Ford Motor Company. Believing it was discarded, Porsche later used it on 356 models for export the U.S. Almost simultaneously, Ford reintroduced the name at the Paris Auto Show in October 1955 with the debut of the new Continental Mark II. Porsche then replaced the “Continental” badge with a “European” script for a few months, after which it was discontinued and 356 once again became the sole worldwide moniker for non-Speedster and non-Carrera road models.
