Seducing Speed: Porsche by Design
The North Carolina Museum of Art is currently hosting the automotive exhibit, Seducing Speed: Porsche by Design. I went and checked it out today and am glad that I did. Here are the highlights (Sorry for the poor quality iPhone pics):
1938 Type 64 Berlin-Rom Racer. The first Porsche racing car ever built. Only two of these were ever built and never raced, they were used as a company car to chauffeur visitors, etc. It was unbelievable how narrow the "greenhouse" was. The seats had to be offset in order to allow room for two people. [/IMG] [URL=http://s401.photobucket.com/user/scott_b72/media/8A4F009D-780C-403E-99B6-EFF16A8BF48A.jpg.html] 1949 356 Gmund Coupe. Aluminum body hand formed over a wooden form. 1953 Type 550 Prototype 1961 Type 356B 1600 Carrera GTL Abarth Coupe 1962 Type 804 Formula 1 1965 Type 904/6 Prototype Last edited by scott_b; 12-08-2013 at 08:01 PM.. |
