While We're In There...

A funky feeling clutch on our 1987 911 Turbo started a bit of a project for us as we fix it correctly, and address some "while we're in there" parts. Our car has only 19,000 miles on it, but the clutch has never felt quite right. The low miles are one thing, the fact that our car will celebrate its 30th birthday next year means there's actually quite a bit to do.

Dear Stoddard,

I enjoyed chatting w/ you at Hershey. As promised, attached are photos documenting how I jacked my rusty 1962 S-90 sunroof coupe up into my garage ceiling. I think car is Oslo Blue, wheels and interior are red. This happened around 1985. I am in plaid shirt with curly hair at the time.

Hershey Video Posted

We make the pilgramage to Hershey, Pennsylvania every year for the Central PA Region of the PCA's killer swap meet and car show. It's the official sign that Spring has finally hit the Northeast and we're eager to see all the cool stuff that people drag there. Along with some pretty stout sunburns, we also got a short video of some of the action.

Meeting The Man on the Cover

George Duck of Paso Robles, California contacted us recently asking about the black and white photograph that we used on the cover of our previous Stoddard 356 Catalog. George knew one of the men depicted in photo that was shot in Germany in the late 1950s. We dug through our archives and sent along the artwork.

Happy New Year—we are celebrating all of the new parts and opportunities there are for crazy Porsche people like us. We are looking forward to 2015 as we've got lots of new parts in the pipeline for your 356, 911 and 912.
