This is a 1960 Porsche RS 60 Spyder. This very car gave Porsche its first overall win at the 12 Hours of Sebring race. It finished with a 9 lap victory over the second place car. The RS 60 and RS 61 were the last of the Spyder model Porsche raced. Those cars became know as giant killers, for their victories over the likes of Ferrari, Maserati, and others that had a lot more power....but also carried a lot more weight.

Amen, Jack.

That's the truth if I ever heard it.

See you.

If that car doesn't get your juices flowing, there's no hope for you.

Great looking Porsche with impressive history. The Porches Spyder really was a giant killer. James Dean (movie - Giant) was killed driving a 1955 Spyder 550, not during a race but driving to one.
