I was out for a jog today, and I passed a house with an old roadster in it. I've had it checked out by danger mouse via picture message, and it's a Porsche 550 Speedster. It looks like a restoration job.

So, is there a PHer in Elmdon who wants to tell me anything?

alright Lucien? how are you?
that would be an incredibly rare spotted if it is an authentic 550 Spyder, Porsche didn't make very many of them, so it could well be a kit.
that car is famous because it is the one that killed James Dean, he nicknamed his "little bastard"! it obviously lived up to its name!
haven't heard from you in a little while is G mail playing up again?
hope to hear from you soon mate!

It could well be a kit, but I'll keep walking past it in the hope her owner comes out. YHM, James
