We entered our Porsche in a PCA concours this past weekend. Concours? That's not very hardcore.
Well, it was an Oktoberfest celebration co-hosted by the Citrus and Space Coast regions: $10 per person for lunch, no extra charge to be part of the concours. Lunch included a nice selection of brats and sausages plus German potato salad. It was delish.
Did we win? Hell no, but we did get to spend a nice Sunday morning checking out cars and seeing friends. The judges gave our car the same amount of attention as the ones that looked brand-new, including a 356 Cabriolet, a 1965 912 and a slope-nosed Turbo.
We also discussed some low-buck tech tips with Lou Verdiales, owner of Aero Dynamics. They service both Porsches and planes. Know what that means? Time to order some more parts and get back in the garage.
