German Corvette? 1969 Opel GT

It was quite a surprise to find this Chevrolet-powered 1974 Porsche 911 two weeks ago and I gather from the comments that it wasn’t an overly appreciated conversion. That’s easy to understand, a 911 has a certain panache about… more»
Three Owner: 1972 Porsche 914

Power Sun Roof! 1962 Porsche 356 S
Well, I’m confused! The seller of this 1962 Porsche 356 advertises it as a Model S and I can find no such reference. It looks like a 356 B, Porsche’s newsroom website does not reference such a designation for… more»
