Canepa Design

I can get detail pictures if you want them. Canepa is 2 blocks from my work and I need more excuses to go in that place.

That was only a fraction of the cars. BTW, I sat in half of the cars in the pictures. I wish i had pictures of a dune buggy they have with a 450 hp single turbo/no intercooler 3.0L motor. Cool car. He also has a volvo gravity racer or whatever they're called.

He is off of HW 17 in Scotts Valley.

That place rocks! We toured Canepa earlier this year and it was incredible. Great cars and great people.

I'm surprised there were no 935s in his museum. He must be too busy racing them.

Can you please provide info on the 934ish cabrio, I have a feeling it's packing a serious punch. Bruce Anderson mentioned a 962 powered cabrio that roamed the streets

Beautiful stuff - but somebody needs to double check a few things. The bore/ stroke on a couple of those motors are way off - and I don't think Van Lennep's name is Gus.

The service bays at the rear of the facility are just as clean and amazing as the showroom.

I am pretty sure it's spelled correctly on the sign "G-I-J-S". The I-J together looks like a "U", especially with the blurry pic.

It's Gijs Van Lennep, no doubt!

Great pics, thanks for sharing!

Woops - I definitely need a new moniter. Gijs it is.
Nonetheless, that 4.4L Indycar V8 must have made some serious ponies.

A few more. He had a 935 on the floor with the motor out and I took some more pictures of the twin turbo speedster.











Sweet jaguar... (did they race this in IMSA? before my time)
