Retro Classic 2018. 18 + 70 Jahre!

70 Jahre Porsche und ein wenig erwachsen.

Es sind die Zahlen die eine Oldtimer-Messe ausmachen, oder sind es die Menschen oder die Autos. Bleiben wir zuerst bei den Zahlen. Da es die 18. Retro Classic Messe in Stuttgart ist, wird die Messe langsam erwachsen. Aber das ist die Messe eigentlich schon längst. Knapp Hunderttausend Besucher strömten in die Messe Stuttgart um hunderte von Automobilen zu sehen oder auch zu kaufen. Porsche und Mercedes sind wieder einmal die Platzhirsche bei den zahlreichen Ausstellern. Bei gibt es wiederum runde Zahlen bei den Jubiläen. 70 Jahre Porsche wurde würdig mit Meilensteinen aus dem Porsche Archiv auf dem Stand des Porsche Museums gefeiert. Ein einzige Erfolgsgeschichte. Zu sehen nicht nur am Porsche Stand . In jeder der mittlerweile auf 10 Messehallen angewachsenen Messe in Stuttgart, waren Porsche Sportwagen vertreten. Was sich auch in den Zulassungszahlen des Modells 911 als H-Kennzeichen widerspiegelt. Knapp 15.000 Autos dieser Modellreihe sind nur allein in Deutschland noch zugelassen und fahren auf unseren Straßen. Weiter so, die nächsten 18. und die nächsten 70 Jahre.

70 years Porsche and a bit adult.

It’s the numbers that make up a classic car show, or is it the people or the cars? Let’s stay with the numbers first. Since it is the 18th Retro Classic fair in Stuttgart, the fair is slowly growing up. But this is actually already the fair. Nearly a hundred thousand visitors visited Messe Stuttgart to see or buy hundreds of automobiles. Porsche and Mercedes are once again the top dogs among the numerous exhibitors. In turn, there are round numbers in the anniversaries. 70 years of Porsche was worthily celebrated with milestones from the Porsche Archive at the Porsche Museum stand. A single success story. Not only to be seen at the Porsche booth. Porsche sports cars were represented in each of the fair, which has meanwhile grown to ten exhibition halls in Stuttgart. Which is also reflected in the registration numbers of the historical model 911. Almost 15,000 cars of this model series are still allowed in Germany alone and drive on our roads. Keep it up, the next 18th and the next 70 years.

Nr. 57

Drei Fahrzeuge werden bei Porsche am 22. Oktober 1964 hergestellt. Der Porsche 901 mit der Nummer 57 verlässt an diesem Tag als letzter die Fertigungshalle. Das rote Sportcoupe mit der Fahrgestellnummer 300057 wird auch der letzte 901 sein. Am nächsten Tag gibt Ferry Porsche die Namensänderung aufgrund der Namensrechte von Peugeot bekannt. Die Nummer 58 war der erste mit der Typenbezeichnung 911.

Die Nummer 57 lebt. Und was alles möglich ist um aus einem komplett unrestaurierten und im schlechten Zustand gefunden Porsche heute wieder zu machen ist, sieht man am Beispiel dieses perfekt restaurierten Porsche 901. Ein frühes Modell das wieder eine Heimat gefunden hat, im fahrbaren historischen Archiv des Porsche Museums. Der letzte 901 ist wieder da.

Three cars are manufactured at Porsche on October 22, 1964. The Porsche 901 with the number 57 leaves last day the production hall. The red sports coupe with the chassis number 300 057 will also be the last 901. The next day, Ferry Porsche announces the name change due to the naming rights of Peugeot. The number 58 was the first with the type designation 911.

The number 57 lives. And what is possible to make a completely unrestored and found in poor condition Porsche today is the example of this perfectly restored Porsche 901. An early model that has again found a home in the mobile historical archive of the Porsche Museum. The last 901 is welcome back home.

Strap in for German engineered horsepower in this specialized history of Porsche engines. In this detailed and extravagantly photographed book you’ll get a full account of race cars powered by Porsche engines, but were developed by other companies. This is the first title to detail the entire history of Porsche engines down to exact specs on engines, non-Porsche chassis, and race details; plus, personal stories from team drivers. This massive volume covers nearly 50 years, and is loaded with over 700 photos, many of which have never been published before. Just because this history is thorough doesn’t mean it’s a chore to read. The approachable, gearhead-focused writing style makes for an enjoyable book to dive into. The story starts in the late 1970s when the demand for services, cars, chassis, and parts from Porsche outstripped their ability to deliver. The Porsche organization was rapidly expanding, and projects had to be prioritized. The rest is history that you’ll be able to see for yourself!

the alternative race cars
by Roy Smith
This book is a detailed account of the racing cars from 1950 to 2010 that were powered by Porsche engines, but where the chassis and development of the car was carried out by others.
The Porsche company in Zuffenhausen, Germany, can probably be said to be the most successful marque ever for victories in the motor racing scene. Likewise many firsts in innovation have come with the name Porsche attached.
Then there are the builders of racing cars, some major producers, such as Elva, Lotus, Lola, March, all at some time featured a Porsche engine in their chassis. In the late 1970s and into the 1980s, the demand for the services and supply of cars, chassis, and parts from Porsche, outstripped their ability to deliver. Plus with many new projects in the rapidly expanding Porsche organisation, race car projects had to be prioritised. This would lead to the creation of the replicas, as opposed to the factory built works race cars, even Porsche was building ‘replica’ 935s to supply to clients, this was to continue into the 962 era. In turn a whole new highly specialised high quality industry grew up to meet the demand for Porsche-powered racers. In this book we see the racing cars, the teams and the people who turned to Porsche to utilise the power from, perhaps, the greatest of all engine makers.
This is thought to be first book on the subject, covering the entire history of Porsche engines, detailed engine specifications, non-Porsche chassis, and race details, as well as team history with anecdotes from drivers. It is illustrated with many previously unpublished photos, and provides fascinating reading for the enthusiast and newcomer alike.

Vom Auto zum Autor – Frankfurter Buchmesse 2017

Vom Auto zum Autor.

Wenn auf der Buchmesse in Frankfurt an einem Messestand ein Blitzlichtgewitter niedergeht, dann ist immer ein berühmter Autor oder ein berühmtes Sternchen das vor Ort ist. Nicht so auf dem Stand des Porsche Museums. Hier war der Star kein Autor sondern ein Auto. Ein Grün Metallic lackierter Porsche 911. Der Star in der Halle 4.
Daneben zahlreiche Porsche Literatur rund um die Sportwagen aus Stuttgart. Dabei ein Rennkochbuch mit dem Titel „schnell mal essen“ vom Porsche-Autor Jürgen Barth. Eine nette Idee, die sehr schön als Buch umgesetzt wurde. Warten wie mal ab. Welches Porsche das nächste mal der Star auf der Buchmesse sein darf.

From the car to the author.

When a flashing flash of lightning hits a trade fair stand at the Frankfurt Bookfair, there is always a famous author or famous star on the spot. Not so on the stand of the Porsche Museum. Here the star was not an author but a car. A green metallic painted Porsche 911. The star in the hall 4.
In addition numerous Porsche literature around the sports cars from Stuttgart. And a racing cookbook entitled „Racing and Recipes” by Porsche author Jürgen Barth. A nice idea that was beautifully translated as a book. Just wait and see. Which Porsche may be the star at the book fair next time?
