Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Periscope embellished custom based on a 914 6 with 3 liter RS spec engine and 934 brakes. Stretched 55 Continental coupe body with RSK ish vent panels in front of the rear wheels. Persicope rear view mirrors on roof and in right door, periscope air intake over roof. Very finely made, excellent paint and interior. Showing some age and a couple of small paint cracks.

Market commentary

Porsche purists probably called this creation putrescent, but as a custom its well done and very creative. Requires just the right buyer, one with both imagination and self confidence, who appears not to have been in Monterey this weekend.
