Happy 70th Birthday to Porsche!

The Porsche 356 roadster prototype first appeared today in 1948. Here are a few in 1:43.

Finally, the 1981 Le Mans winning 936 of Jacky Ickx and Derek Bell. I took this shot near one of the last curves before Les Hunaudieres (Mulsanne Straight).

The 911 hit 50 in 2014. That must be a design record.

Interesting comparisions. The wheelbase hasn't been changed over this entire period?? Wow. How many manufacturers can say that.
