the 356 under the man's arm, and behind the driver, is actually sitting ON the barndoor platform. These were actually used to transfer the finished bodies between Reutters and the Porsche works facilities.
They can be seen in many old factory pics, but most of them are in published books and have copyright. _________________ Hotrods, Fords, Veedubs and Triumph Twins !
