[MMW]

Just posting this here because I am not a registry member so I can't talk to anyone from there. Seeing if anyone else might be interested. I would like to attend so I'm trying to figure out what else is in the area to make it a two day trip with the wife. Saturday & Sunday.

Unobtanium Open House
Saturday, September 5th, 2015
12pm to 3pm


I want to invite everyone out to our 2nd Annual Open House at our location in scenic Ravena, NY. We have finally moved our whole operation from the old leather factory in Gloversville, NY. Cars that have not seen the light of day in over a decade are now back in the sun.

There is plenty of parking that is super safe as the Police Station is the only other building on our dead end street. We encourage everyone to bring their Porsche, but if you can't please bring yourself and a few friends. We will have food and drink on hand and the Unobtanium crew of Adam, Matt, and Big John will be there to answer any questions. We might even talk Big John into doing some feats of great strength!

The warehouse normally has 15-20 early Porsche projects to look at as well as shelf after shelf of parts for all your restoration needs. You won't be disappointed if Porsche 356's and early 9 series cars are your passion. In addition, some of our personal collection will be on hand like the 356 A Coupe that won Daytona in 1966. You can also check out the latest shop project - we are converting a 914-6 into a 904 using a real 904 body!

We are hoping Wray from Proshaper can come out with the latest metal he is shaping for our aluminum 550 Spyder project. His website is http://www.proshaper.com if you want to check out his work.

If you want to see pics from last year's open house you can check them out on our blog:

Last year we lined the street in so many Porsches you would have thought you were in Germany! The shop address is:
Unobtanium
14 W Shore St.
Ravena, NY 12143
518-705-1355
Hope to see you there!

I'll be there! Seriously though, last year we had about 150 people and we expect more this year. We lined the street in Porsches!
Free food and lots of eye candy.

We are doing the final prep for the big day.

We have been hanging the banners, especially the new cool ones Porsche sent us, thanks Porsche!

The weather is looking perfect.

Hope to see everyone there.
