Taken in '68 or '69. The car was my first 356 - '64SC Cab, Togo brown/tan leather, and all the options. One of many I shouldn't have sold.

I'm not bringing politics into this but I did have lunch with Richard Nixon once. No photos. No Porsche. No Tubbs.

J-
Great pic, I love it when people go back and re-create old pics.
Matt I did this at Georgia State, one pic was taken when my dad graduated, the next one when we were close to graduation almost 20 years later.

October 1971 - I was 19 years old and had just bought my first Porsche - which I still have today.
The turbocharged 1965 Corvair Corsa convertible was sold about two years later.

I don't have any early photos of me with a Porsche simply because I wasn't really into them years ago. But here's a shot of me on my honeymoon in Hawaii back in '86 in our rental. Magnum P.I. days...

Here is a picture of my Speedster as it was in 1965. This was taken just before my buddy left for the Navy and I left for the Army, are last big fling before boot camp. I'm the guy on the left in the white shirt.
