Keeping a family tradition alive

For some reason, my family has owned brown cars. My dad a 68 Buick Skylark (he claimed it was gold when it rolled off the showroom floor) and a 78 Olds Delta 88, my grandfather an 84 Pontiac Bonneville, my aunt an 86 Toyota Supra, my uncle a 78 Camaro. I even owned a goldish 84 BMW 533i. So I guess it came to no one's surprise that the first Porsche was going to be brown - I'm just surprised that it was the perfect car for me. Built by Farnbacher Loles, the defunct racing shop in CT, I acquired it from Wayne Carrini's F40 shop manager Mike. It's an almost RS build on the original 1975 2.7 S with some absolutely remarkable upgrades from the engine through the drivetrain to the paintwork, Bitter Chocolate T3 - the original color - by Robbie Reuter. It just never looks the same in different kinds of light. Absolutely LOVE this car, hope you enjoy the pics.
