Unobtanium Open House 2017 Sept 2nd
 
The time has come once again for all Porsches to gather in Ravena, NY and eat great free food from the World Famous Yanni's food truck. Come, bring your Porsche, bring your friends, and bring your smiles. Hope to see everyone there!

I'm in !!!

littleoldman 07-28-2017 05:03 AM

As a littleoldman, I have special dietary restrictions.
I see a mention of a world famous food truck. Can you post more about that.
If the food is free I'd like to come.
If they can make me some low salt no gluten organic food it may make me more comfortable.
Will there be seating as I get tired easily.
Also- how far are you from a local hospital in case we get into an argurment and I end up injuring you.
Lastly, will there be any nice finished driveable cars or just the typical "projects" you post for eBay?
Thanks

The Police Station is across the street so if you get rowdy we can just drag you over there by your ankles, they like us over there. Big John is usually a few feet away from me and his is pretty protective, so I doubt you could land a punch before you felt big hands on your ankles.
But seriously, the food is top notch, the event is being catered by Yanni's Yannis Restaurants
Mark Yanni is recipient The American Culinary Federation
Chef of the Year Award! Amongst his many other awards.
As far as driver's, Porsche of Clifton Park is bringing a wide array of new Porsches to display, so bring your checkbook. We always have a wide array of Porsches about, in fact you can get bookends if you want, we currently have two 1970 911T's in Albert Blue, one made in 3/70 and the other in 4/70, so they were probably painted on the same day at the Factory.
Hope to see everyone come out and enjoy the sunshine!

I could come from the Trenton N.J Area & bring some legendary Pork Roll for Breakfast but I am afraid the littleold man might get out of control.Maybe Rawknees could show up and keep everone under control but his awesome Turbo POWERAA would not survive the trip without a rebuild.Sounds like fun.Fred

That would be handled by the Complaint Department.

Start building the caravan! Grab Mark Pribanic, he's always down for a roadtrip!

Unobtanium-inc 08-23-2017 02:45 PM

In addition to all the usual cool stuff to see at Unobtanium this year you can also check out my personal projects, the 904 and the 550 Spyder in Aluminum.

Hope to see everyone there!

It looks like the Dangling Dane and FaapTabulousFred could pool their funds and share a room for the after-festivities lodging!!!

MrBonus 08-24-2017 03:40 AM

Dang, why did you have to pick a day when I'm away?

Unobtanium-inc 08-25-2017 05:16 PM

If anyone is still on the fence about coming you should check out the weather report, it gets no nicer than this! With winter coming this might be the last good drive of the season, and when you leave our place you can head over to Lime Rock and watch the Historics, make a weekend out of it!

Last call for the open house, we are only a couple of days away. As an added bonus, we will be giving rides on the Unobtanium rickshaw, please tip your driver!

See everyone there!

Here are some shots from the set-up, the juxtaposition of the old vs the new will be a good talking point for people when they arrive. Not often you get to so Porsches so old next to ones that are brand spanking new, courtesy of Porsche of Clifton Park.

Hope to see everyone there, the weather is supposed to be perfect, low 70s and sunny.

The Open House went great today, we had so many cars the cops shut down the street for us! The weather was perfect and the food truck ran out of food. A better day could not have been had.
Can't wait for next year!

Great time Adam!!! Thanks for hosting the event. Met some new folks, and ran into a bunch of people I haven't seen for a while. I will stop down soon to discuss some 356 needs.
