His car isn't damaged by potholes. Perhaps that's the way forwards

I quite like the purity of the early Panteras but those wheels spoil it……Berny wrote:

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
Are they original wheels? The tyres look too big as well to my eye.

It looks like it's got non-original (dummy ?) wire wheels on it ...

Re: my non-Porsche picture of the day
For a good while I sat the number plate flat on top of the dash and whenever I passed the cops I reached over and lifted the near edge up with a finger so they could see it. If I saw them looking I just smiled and winked to express my gratitude to them for cutting me some slack. I think most cops are a bit more flexible with an old car. They're more likely to ask how old it is and what the engine is than cause you grief.gridgway wrote:someone's stolen the front number plate!
