No way. It must be 'shopped. I just know it. Your trick photography is not welcome here.

Welcome. Nice looking car.

As far as telling if the Fuchs are real, pull one off and look on the back, there should be a part # on one spoke and a size on the other spoke. There should also be a little triangle doodad (technical term) that looks like a foxes head.

I'd also suggest joining the 912registry as they know a lot about these boogers.

Greetings,

I've been going to de's for two years and have met many of you, although I still can't put names and faces to most of your handles. It's about time I came out. I'm the new proud owner of the ex Doug Nickel 911 SC. My Boxster S will revert to being only a daily driver. My wife and I harber dreams of long top down tours (split to the coast?) although I'll have to soften it up to accomodate my bad back.
By now I'm definitly in the geezer range. I started out back in the sixties with a 59 bugeye. After a valve job and a spun rod bearing I was forced to liquidate just to get my assets back to zero. I was finally able to get a 63 beetle that allowed me to start autocrossing with the Andrews AFB sports car club. When I mustered out of the AF, I hocked everything I could to get a 65 C coupe.

I immediately joined PCAP at the advise of Kenny Wise (58 Speedster) who I knew from Andrews. Back then de's consisted of one day a year at Marlboro. The main club focus was on championship autocrosses and tsd rallies. A hard core did both with alot of post event drinking. During this period I also tried to resurrect a 55 speedster, but the cancer was way beyond my means.

After I sold my 356 so I could buy a bmw 2002 tow car and a formula V, I didn't get back into a Porsche till my Boxster. But I do go on.

I plan to have the SC at the fest. Be gentle, whites, while I learn how to drive it.

Welcome, and geezers are welcome here. My dad used to race at Marlboro in his Abarth. I remember watching Bill Davis and his orange Bug at SP. As I recall he was pretty competitive in his class. Look forward to meeting you at Pfest.

Barry,

White Boxster #22 right???? I'm in the red 944S2. We've come up the ranks together. I made it into White late last year but have only run a few events this year. Welcome to White! Prepare to feel slow again!!!!
