Superb article of ex Knoll design director on his California black plate Porsche 912





 What fascinates me about the Porsche 912 is its fundamental simplicity and humbleness. It’s not about performance or showing off. It’s all about functionality and relies on as few parts as necessary. And its reliability is due to the engineering genius of its makers. For me, reliability goes hand in hand with honesty – both in cars and real-life relationships. And that car is honest! ”
Slate grey long hood modifications done well.  Photos are good too.  I would have filled the rear deck completeley and do the rear license plate panel in perforated steel.
