Issue 393 | Project 356/930

After thirty-one years in Australia, Viktor Grahser returned to his native Austria with one suitcase and three Porsche 356s. He broke a hole in the wall of his house and pushed one Porsche into his living room—while the other two sat in a shipping container, waiting in vain for restoration. Eleven years after Grahser died, one 356 Roadster has now been completely restored. And has found a distinguished owner.

Issue 393 | Laptime
