Hey Frank... hope this finds you exceedingly well.

I was hoping to send you some pics of my retooled Sportster but I haven't had time to take a few additional photos. Last night on my way home from dinner with the family, I had the good fortune to bump into this at a neighbouring car lot. Unfortunately, there was no one about from whom to get the story on it, so I can't speak to its' providence. The pics are not as fine as i would have liked them but i was shooting with my iPhone. Still, beauty is beauty.
Have yourself a fine, fine day my friend. Warmest Regards


 The Porsche 550 Spyder was introduced in 1953 at the Paris Motor Show. Inspired by a small Porsche 356 Spyder which was created and raced by Walter Gl?ckler in 1951, the factory decided to build such a car, being its first designed specifically for use in auto racing. The 550 became known as Spyder or RS, and gave Porsche its first overall win in a major sports car racing event, the 1956 Targa Florio. Racing accomplishments aside, the 550 was probably best known as the car of choice for cultural icon James Dean.

The Porsche nowadays is still about the sports car. However nowadays you can find innovative solutions to technical issues. The current Porsche has incredible handling, speed, electronic gadgets that are advanced over the past, much better fuel economy, a higher safety rating, and even an environmentally friendly build.
