Porsche Parade Lake of the Ozarks

Hi Eric
Candyce won her class. I think Mike Fitton did well with his 71 Targa. Dave and yours truly scored 299.2 for a close second in class. Winner was 299.4. A couple of tiny mistakes. But good for Gmund level. The car is beautiful! We saved the original vinyl and got perfect scores on the interior and nearly every other area. Thanks for your help with the parts. It had a crowd around it all day and the judges were impressed with the presentation. But those mistakes... SS

Steve it was great to meet you, your car was outstandingly well presented. Thanks for bringing your car for all of us to enjoy, a real treat.

I am arriving on Saturday and will be there all week. I am showing my Hell Green 74 in Preservation class at the Concours, you can't miss it, come say hello!

I will also be part of a panel discussion on Thursday with Hagerty and doing a valuation seminar at the Tech Academy on Friday. PM me if you want to meet up.

Great car and a fun color! Thanks for bringing it to the Parade.

Concours Prep and the Parade was fun. It was great to meet members of The Registry. It is enjoyable to watch how everyone comes together. Very nice people all with a story to tell!

Great to see you Candyce! The cars are great, the people greater! Have fun this summer!

Great event! But yes... the heat and humidity were brutal. I was assigned by PCA Panorama Magazine to cover the event and produce features on a few cars. Three of those turned out to be early 911s! Look for some cool stories in the future.

While making the photos at 6 am for five days in a row was fun (and became easier to do in the heat as I acclimated to it), it was meeting and interviewing the owners that was most enjoyable. I was able to meet Candyce, Steve, Reid, Rob, Nathan, and many others. Lots of shared passion on display in Missouri!

Steve - You and Dave D. did very well. FYI, ESR members - I was the guy that got the 299.4 with my RS Lightweight. Big thanks to my help, Sean McKay of Golden, CO and Mike Slaughter of Epic Auto Restorations of Brighton, CO. Thanks also to all the ESR folk that got me parts and advice, I couldn't have done it without you. A couple of tiny, stupid (on my part) mistakes and it would have been 299.6, maybe!

Hey Robert good to meet you and see your beautiful car. Yeah, those tiny mistakes. But we had world class judges! I am happy with the results, now to drive my 67S.
