Geeze, $19,000 for a dubious-quality kit car on a '68 pan. I love the engine just hanging inside that rear shell with no air ducting at all! |

One of the vendor's at the 52nd Annual Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance this past weekend had an early Porsche transaxle displayed in and open wooden crate, perched about 7 feet up on a shelf. complete with sign that boldly claimed "From James Dean's 550 Spyder".
I couldn't help myself, I asked the young guy maning the booth on Sunday if anyone had been hurt moving that haunted crate... yet...
this is what he said... :roll: :roll: :roll: |

i ask about the dean spyder on the 356 list
some one sent me a email that the car body is in a storage unit somwhere in so cal and this person knows spec where .
clark a told me that the engine and trany and running gear are in different places.and the pink is owned by somone else. and thats why no one will make it public.
i dont blame them its a very valu. car. and i guess he who holds the pink
gets everything if it ever surfaces.
it should be restored and placed in the porsche mus.
or giving to me .. hehe
my kids wil love going thru taco bell in it. |
