Mike.... you da man. Yes, a Beutler-Porsche, manufactured in Switcherland on a 356 chassis. Was told only 5 exist today. One lives in Middle Tennessee.

They're the ones with a decent sized back seat and un-Porsche like lines as a result, right?

Yep, kinda reminded be of a Vauxhall from the late 50's. Yes.... I know most of you guys weren't around then!! It's a damn rare car, though. Have no idea of its value....... anyone?

Predator, I saw that rare jewel at the Visit 2.0 in 2002 in Bowling Green, KY. During the road rally, in which speeds reached 90 mph several times, the owner, a legendary 356/911 guru, drove it during the rally and kept up with no trouble at all. I was very impressed!
