Default Otis Chandler's Porsches

I just had a nice day out looking at Otis's wonderful collection of vintage cars, and a few new ones, at his museum in Oxnard. Here are a couple of snaps......

I think when you're Otis Chandler you can pretty much get anything you want!

wonder if he still has the Sunoco 917-30 of Mark Donohue's. I'd want that over all the others. BTW, what is the colour on the GT3? I still want to see a CGT in person but living in Iowa I figure it will be a LONG time before that happens! Need to go to a Parade again I guess. (Haven't done that for many years now unfortunately...)

ski, I didn't see that car at the museum, nor is it mentioned on the website.
The GT3 is Minerva Blue.

My car was in his museaum for awhile before I bought it . He got the car directly from Porsche with a special delivery. It might have been the first one into the USA.
