Congrats to ya... Those were peg warmers around here for quite awhile... I didn't understand that. The silver was still hanging on the pegs when the black one was stocked...![]() ![]()

I've had the silver for a while I just could not find the black. Silver can still be found around here. Found it in a dollar store in a little town kinda like Mayberry, in south Alabama. |

Same here. For some reason that batch never showed up in my region. Luckily somebody else helped me out.

That's odd because the black one was first. I picked mine up November 2015. Edited by Hobie-wan, Jan 17 2017, 01:29 PM.

I saw plenty of these here, but I never picked one up. For some reason, despite its praise, it never appealed to me. I'm not really a Porsche person. |

Same here. I seen it a couple times and passed on it. However, I will say it is a nice casting. |

It is definitely. I picked it up and pondered, but I had to pass it over for something else each time I saw it)) |

Got mine a while ago. In fact I did a bit of detailing on the front and back to make it more appealing and the other one I left in its original. I'm also not a Porsche person but this is their casting that I really like specially in black but did not pickup the silver.

I'm not typically a collector of these type of cars, but I had to buy the black one. It's my favorite out of the 2 |

I don't usually grab cars from pre-1965 era, but I made an exception for both of these. I bought a bunch of the silver ones as wheel donors too, since I've got a lot of muscle car castings with narrow width axles that need decent wheels.

And with a small to medium amount of work (filling in unneeded holes in body, making bumpers from Plastruct), it can be made to look like this. I'm glad I didn't pass it by. |

Congrat's for both variations, that's a sweet casting.
