Some sort of Porsche 356.
Best part of it, I've driven by it three times so far today and it appears to be less than perfect/a "driver."
First cool car of September

Looks familiar with the fog lamps and Mobilegas stickers on the fenders. But the original owner died many years ago. If it is that car, I wonder who owns it now?

Whoops. Maybe not. This is his car, different fog lamps and center caps.
Photo taken years ago
He also owned this 550 spyder for a while;
Photo from RM Auctions catalog.

Hard to tell from the photo but the windshield looks like it might be a pre-A car.

All these guys with their 356's and Spyders with the Mobil pegasus's, stole the idea from me. Lol

It's on a real busy stretch of road I ride every day during my 3 minute drive to the raceway.
If I see it again and I'm not too busy, maybe I'll stop and get a few good pics.
Here's another bad one showing the Targa parked next to it .
