    Classic 911s at Essen Show

    Thoiught you might be interested in some P-cars at the Techno Classica Show two weeks ago. The white 73 RS is one of the ex-works East African Safari Rally cars which was recovered from Kenya two years ago and rebuilt (but not over-restored…) to original spec. And check out the original factory 356 Carrera GS/GT carburettor tuning kit – yours for 3800 Euros... Nice keepsake!

    I'm loving the horn grille on the top car...and I bet they saved over 100 grams by drilling the door handles!

    What especially struck were the prices asked in Germany. Over 25k Euro for a 1971 T, that wasn't even completely original. It occured to me that so little cars are close to original, even at Essen
