    356 & 911/12?. Not sure where that took place. My guess is PORSCHE? Doesn’t look like any Stuttgart scene I’ve ever seen, though.

    indeed. I do not think 911 was produced at Karmann (or were they?). First car in line is prepared for fog lights, was that an accessory for the 912? If not, then it must be a 911.
