Now Rennsport is over we have to get back to real life… dreams of Porsches are nice, but don’t hold forever, at least not for me…:) anyway one of the nicest weekends in my life, ever!
But duty calls so I continue my trip and had to check out this beauty… a real cool driver 1959 Ragtop, not perfect, but a rock solid super dry body, no rust what’s oever, and very charming mostly original sitting car, it had repaint here and there and touch up, and seat covers a zillion year ago… it comes from a pilot who sorted to original mechanics real well and this baby is just a BLAST to drive!
Ever fancied a real Ragtop? super dry and nice?
It will take a while to get this to Belgium but it’s coming…
