Porsche 904- 1960's Street Legal Racer

Porsche 904- 1960's Street Legal Racer- The historic and highly sought after Porsche 904 was introduced in 1964 to replace the Porsche 718 in 1964. 105 were made in order to qualify for FIA GT racing.

The street legal version featured a 155 horsepower four cylinder engine with the race version outputing 180 hp at 7000 rpm.

The 904 was later fitted with a 2 liter flat eight winning a number of class victories and taking the 2.0 class World Champion in 1964 and '65.

If you're in the market for one today, pack the suitcase with $2 million dollars or so.

Triumph TR4 Waiting for a Lap at the Race Track

Classic Triumph TR4 at the race track

 Here's a classic Triumph TR4 at the race track waiting to do a few test laps. The TR4 was in production from 1961 to 1965, I think it's Triumph's best looking automobile.

The 1965 Maserati Tipo 151 is a beautiful automobile to look at- and to listen to. However this model had a checkered racing pedigree, hitting 200mph on LeMans Mulssane Straight while accumulating a number of DNF's. But still a thing of beauty and an example of classic race car design.
