I kind of knew the 2nd owner that bought the car after Barry sold it, he use to come into Partsheaven.

Barry originally removed the speedster seats and put in the factory seats.....probably because the speedster seats were to tight for him.. He was a growing boy as you all know.

My buddy bought the original speedster seats from the dealer and had them signed by Barry. He was going to make them into office chairs but never got around to it. When the 2nd owner bought the car my buddy told him he had the original seats and the guy wanted them so he sold it back to the 2nd owner.

just a little insight... We use to call it the Barry Bondo car

Sonny & Scott-- Thanks, brothers.
Still looking for the BF Goodrich poster (or any non-factory ads that feature Porsche Speedsters).
I dig companies that use Speedsters to advertise.
Short of ads like that, Speedster photos are always welcome!

Speaking of ads, I think I saw a billboard for jeans (not mass-produced brand like Levis, Lee's, Wrangler, Gap, etc.)
that featured a silver 356 Speedster months ago.
Was driving near Hollywood, & forgot about 'til now.
Maybe that rings a bell, & someone has the image to share?

In the meantime, more of Barry's Strosek bling-mobile:

Note the magazine feature on the windshield.
Same 964, different seats (or before being dyed blue).
PS I luv 964 Speedster Recaro bucket seats!!! Anyone else?

CAHRERA

Same seats.... Actually he had the backs repainted to match the color of the car. The factory color backs were white.

^ ^ I luv Speedster bucket seats, dyed leather or not!

I'm not doing a good job of keeping this thread on track (green 911 BFG poster / Speedsters in ads); I'm not even a huge Strosek fan, but just stumbled on this...

Going off the beaten path, I might as well go way off. Hopefully somebody enjoys the trip!

IIRC, this is originally a 1994 Speedster; I saw it FS on eBay years ago...
