A couple of months ago I would have sworn it was scrapped Norm, but after this shot of 041 was posted:

I thought no way was this car fixed.

But here it is in the early '70s fully repaired and in Allen Hall's driveway...

Wonder if this was a write off in the day or resurrected?

The 2nd overall place went to a team of 3 pilots
Mahle/Strahle and Linge
This same team were also sharing a 356 A Carrera that finished 4th overall

The 1959 Targa Florio race was a huge success for Porsche who achieved 1st/2nd/3rd and 4th
The overall winner was the 718RSK race number 112 driven by Edgar Barth(the father of Jurgen Barth)/Wolfgand Seidel

The top pic is Riverside, and I'm thinking the bottom one is Laguna Seca. Love the '59 Ranchero.

Anybody know the chassis number on this one? Isn't this the former Targa car?
