I ordered and received the Magnagrafix matt stone guards. Got them yesterday and even though they are nice I don't love them on the car.

So in the fine tradition of LexVan I am giving them away to the first person to answer the following question.

What is the name of the German Coachwork Company that built the original 901 prototype for the 1963 Frankfort Motor Show unveiling of what we all know and love as the 911?

I'll also pay to mail them (in the USA) too.

 

Hahahaha. Pay it forward! Love it!

 

Karmann?

 

Karmann

Scotty's google typing skills were faster than mine!
Hopefully Scotty doesn't want these!

 

Yeah it looks better without.

 

Karmann - Next in line?

 

Not Karmann

 

Reutter ?

 

We have a Winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Greg D nice job.

"Ferry set the main attributes concerning wheelbase, power figures and suspension and after Komenda still did not cooperate, he took F.A.'s drawings to the coachwork manufacturer Reutter across the street. They gave the actual shape to the 901 as it was presented at the 1963 Frankfurt Motor Show"

PM me your name and address and I'll send them out.

 

Ah, I'm so sorry, I was caught in the quizz but I shouldn't have played ;-) I have side porsches stickers that would interfere with the symmetry of both my toys, but that's really nice of you... Please either pass them to a responder of your choice, not me, or do another quizz - it's kinda fun- I promise I'll shut up this time if I know the answer... The thought is much appreciated though, I like this pass it forward stuff ;-) Thanks !!!

 

BTW for those who were not aware, reuter-carrozzerie was ultimately bought by porsche and they are still making....seats ! RECARO is the contraction of their name !!!

 

^ Ah, beat me to it.

 

Damn, that's 2 wins in a row but no powerball ;-) Well I did not play...

 

OK thanks for passing if you can't use them. I'll start it with a new thread so It doesn't confuse anyone.
