my non-Porsche picture of the day

[Lightweight_911]

Rare to see something that I can't identify! There is something of the Alfa T33 (wheels) about it, but the engine's in the wrong place. Is it a South African special?

Looks more like somebody's loose 'interpretation' of an Alfa TZ2 ...

The proportions are very Corvette but that can't be right... or proper!

please don't tell me thats a picture of your car outside your front door, or i'll be very jealous (on both counts)

It was my car and sold it many years ago, a mistake, but got a similiar one last year even better.
The guy I sold it send me this photo after it arrived in Portugal. The 230 is the sportest of the range
I had a 280 as well for many yrs here is a photo and its now in Monaco.

both lovely.. i'm a real sucker for a pagoda, although silver-grey with red interior would be my dream combination
that car just looks so right sitting outside that (provencial?) wall and door

There's a 75 and Zagato in the background, so possibly Alfa related.

At least two nice cars?

The blue one is the same colour as mine - db906. Mine has the cognac interior

Odd that you should say yours is in Monaco... (although this is a right hooker... MB did it up for him and gave it to him...)

I replaced it with a Cognac interior which I got from MB the same colour as per factory. I have plenty photos of the car which I had for 5 yrs + pm me your email.

Ok, I admit it, I borrowed it from Early S... who borrowed it from this great site. A whole years worth of great images.

I still am that little boy, I had a matchbox large size model , Mondo model brand have lovely yellow
one's with great detail for £10 approx, I must say the red with gold wheels is special, I have the LJK Steright article from 1967. I understand they are somewhat of a handful to drive not sorted.
