in December 1955. So whilst the seeds of thought re Porsche ownership may have been sown in France, they certainly were re-sown in Adelaide in 1955. Many years of hard work in the transport industry provided the means to eventually achieve his Porsche dream in Australia. Something he probably would have never achieved in France. To this day the leather jacket Pascal wore for many years whilst driving his trucks across the breadth of Australia remains safely secured under the front bonnet of the 356A and travels with us wherever we go. It is a tribute to him and a reminder to us as to how fortunate we are to have this special car. Mum now at aged 88 can no longer be persuaded to drive with me. She says it’s too fast and too noisy. I will be very pleased to hear (ph 83379412) from any-one who may have any knowledge of this Porsche’s history in the years between 1958 to 1968.
