Monaco is known for high-dollar big-rollers and is synonymous with pricey cars both historic and brand new.

Last year we introduced you to our newest project car, called simply "Project Boxster Clubsport". In that first installment we found the right car, we purchased it for a song, and since then we've been slowly removing weight from it and installing a few upgrades.

It has been a bit over 30-years since I made this image, at Ferry Porsche’s 75th birthday party at his home in Stuttgart.
