Here are a few interesting pictures of Carrera Speedster 83623 that Chad Comeau was nice enough to send me. It was raced all through the 60's according to Chad.

Here are a couple more pictures of 83623. This was a roller bearing Carrera GS/GT Speedster which mean no oil lines running to the front of the car and back!

Here`s a pic of my old 57 GT Speedster #83622, sister car to Chad`s friends car. I met Chad and the Speedster at Rennsport !V in Monterey. I knew the car existed, but never had seen it before.

Hi James,
Thanks for sharing those pictures. I was fortunate enough to attend the Porsche Race Car Classic with it. Shortly after that event it was sold. The new owner has participated in a couple rally's with it.
