Thanks Andy

Good question Karl, I wondered if that was Dean's Speedster.

From the Registry & according to Dean Porsche authority Lee Raskin "JD traded his 80126 Super Speedster into Competition Motors on September 21, 1955...and his best friend, Lew Bracker the next day...traded his '55 Normal Speedster to Comp Motors ...for Dean's Super. Lew raced 80126 in Dec. 1955 at Palm Springs." So I think this is a different car at Salinas October 1st / 2nd
