Stanley flew Andy Prill out to fix his car on the Peking Paris Rally. I don't think he is without a few pennies

Yes, I met Stanley a couple of times at Le Mans Classic, and he is a very nice, generous guy, casually asking if I wanted a vacation 'with Porsches' at his place. I guess he's sold his 904 now - loved that car.

Maybe skip the first 50 seconds to get to the early 'customised' yellow Targa car chase :P

It was late evening approaching twilight no head lights on when it drove into the car park, and pitch black night time when it drove out.

Don't think so, I think it is a fresh promo video, but interesting all the same.
