Porsche 959 Cutaway Poster
The Porsche 959 was one of the most technologically advanced supercars of its time, featuring cutting-edge all-wheel drive, a twin-turbocharged engine, and advanced aerodynamics. It set new benchmarks for performance and innovation, influencing the design and engineering of future high-performance sports cars. My very patient wife is probably not going to allow me to mortgage the house to acquire one of these mythic beasts, however I now have several period 959 posters just in - and soon to be listed - including this cutaway poster issued by Porsche Cars North America in 1986.

Aerodynamic, Racing 356 Photograph
I saw this photograph on a German auction site of a Porsche 356 with a perspex bubble cockpit and thought it was pretty cool. Does anybody know more about it? I'm pretty sure that if it had been more "winning" we would have seen the image on a poster though.

Period Sims Automotive 356 Cutaway Reproduction Poster
