I'm happy that so many 356 series vehicles were able to attend our gathering.
The organizer didn't want to make this a self-promoting event in an effort to keep the focus on Max Hoffman.
We're already in the works for next year.

The venue was very nice and the inside display added to my knowledge of the Hoffman operation. It was like a cars and coffee that went from 8-2 but with the vendors, food and music we had a great time. I would've thought that an initial welcome speech would have been a good marketing move . We never did figure out who the Host was other than a local car company. Of the 100 or so cars about 30 were Tubs that included 4 four cam cars, one Speedster, a T5 GT and two Carrera 2. I'm sure as the years go along more of the cars that Hoffman handled will participate but it was fun to see some early 911's too.
Our drive from Boston enjoyed a Ferry ride from Bridgeport to Fort Jefferson which made it a lot easier. Folks on the boat loved our tubs.
Let's hope that it's the "same time next year". KTF

Looks like a great event. Interesting quote from somebody, in the video on facebook, that Hoffman paid more tax than anybody else in the US one year?
"At the age of 77 Hoffman died a rich man, in 1981. "He boasted," said a New York Times profile piece, "of paying more taxes than anyone else in the country in the late 1970s.""
There is a rather lengthy clip on Fox 5 News about driven to America.
Type in Driven to america Facebook. There is also some still pictures of a lot of cars.
