1961 Porsche 356B Super 90 Roadster, Ex Bruce Jennings

As per Kardex this special Roadster was purchased new by Racer, Bruce Jennings aka "King Carrera" presumably to try out the new Super 90 engine (See race results), Then sold to Racer Peter Callaghan complete with the Chassis Engineering wheels Jennings would typically run on his cars. Callaghan changed the original color of Ruby Red to metallic Blue and campaigned the car through the 1960's (see images). After years of racing and multiple owners Callaghan found and reacquired his old racer and semi-restored it, using the car until his passing. The Roadster then found its way to Herb Wetson's collection. Since leaving Wetson's possession the Roadster has had a fresh 912 based engine installed as well as a new set of alloy wheels with Avon tires. The car still runs  Carrera GT gears, Penske shocks and disc brakes installed in the '60s.
