Member News.

Pete Peters Progress update

After almost three years, my ’67 1600 roadster

leaves the garage for body work and painting.

Color? Porsche Guards Red, of course. Mister

Firestone helped with attaching the towbar and

hooking up to his truck before heading off to An-

aheim. Mister Anderson graciously stepped in.

His expertise in maneuvering a tow, especially in

reverse, saved me from further embarrassment.

Next steps are some frame modifications, then

strip down for frame and other parts to go to

powder coater.
