The Porsche 356A was stripped in order to install new floors and customize the bodywork with fuel filler in middle of the hood, fog lights, louvers... It's finished in GT Silver (the same color on the Carrera GT) with red Mobil Pegasus over saddle brown leather interior.

So beautiful... a shame that Steem is so low :-)
