What a pleasure to walk in the streets of Havana and to see this typical scene. Ernesto and his cousin, Carlos are proud to explain me how they’ve been managing to maintain and restore its Pontiac from the 50’s.
Yes, it’s still possible to see it today in Cuba! Thanks to a governmental protection, there are all classified in the Cuban heritage, which means that we cannot buy them and send them out of the country.
Clémence.
1960 Porsche 356B Outlaw - Concours Restoration,
This is an exceptionally good 356B that remains with it’s matching numbers and has been restored into an outlaw spec 356. It was delivered new to an American solider based in Roswell, New Mexico, the owner then relocated to Connecticut where following his death the car remained in a barn until 2017 when it was found and sold to the UK. The car was found with 27,225 miles on the odometer which is believed to be the original mileage, once the car had arrived in the UK a four year restoration commenced, some of the UK’s leading experts were involved including; 911 Rennsport, Workshop Seventy7, Jaz Porsche, Riviera Autobody and Roger Bray.
The car was stripped back to bare metal, repairs and custom work were made to the body, new panels were fitted, the engine and gearbox, which are original to the car, where completely rebuilt plus the running gear, suspension and brakes were refurbished or replaced with new components. Re-chroming of all the brightwork was carefully done.
A bespoke interior and headlining were created and fitted with luxurious Scottish Muirhead leather and German weave carpet, the original gauges were professionally refurbished, after four years of restoration logging an insane number of man hours and an eye watering amount spent, the car was complete from a total nut and bolt restoration in this super desirable specification.
