Based off an '88 Carrera, this blue beauty has been turned into a ground-up project which rivals a Singer.

Watch Adam Carolla Guide his Ex-Paul Newman 935 Around Laguna Seca
This isn't the first time Adam Carolla's taken his ex-Newman 935 around Laguna Seca. Now a familiar face at the big-name vintage events there, he shows some genuine bravery when threading this $4.8M racing icon through traffic at this year's Rennsport.

Perhaps that speaks to just how special …

PCA members are deeply passionate people, and deeply invested in both Porsche as a brand, and as an institution stretching back decades. I've been a concours judge, and observing PCA concours judging in person is an intense experience; the breadth of knowledge about materials, finishes, and even fonts shared by these people is immense.
