Donald Osborne, a world class Gentleman who has the magnificent talent of drawing his audience into an amazingly tangible/vicarious experience with the depth of his knowledge, his driving skill, and humble yet deft ability to communicate with balanced passion, humor and sincerity. I truly appreciate you Donald, a refreshing dose of class and style in a world that's quickly losing it's cool.
Donald . Listening to you waxing lyricals is rather like listening to your favourite record . You never tire of it ! Those tyres look ridiculously thin , l've seen wider on off road bicycles ! Have to say l'm really not a Porsche enthusiast but it is a icon . That photo of the white roadster ....gosh , it was horrible ! Glad they changed their mind on that one ! Regarding the colour on the left door . I've no doubt that it matched perfectly when it came back from the bodyshop but reds always tone down over a couple of days . If you wish to keep the provenance then leave it but "If " you want it corrected a reputable bodyshop can use a spectrograph that will analyse the pigments that will give the correct colour which may be a non Porsche colour. I restored a 1966 mini Cooper "s" sometime back and the exact match was a Lada Blue ! ( Lada is /was an eastern European manufacturer ) . Always a pleasure to see you enjoying your work Donald ! Thankyou .
