    Wild........... You don't know that half of it.

    I just took it on it's maiden voyage and I get people driving next to me saying how cool it looks.

    I think I need to lower it down about 2" though (see the gap btwn the tailgate and bumper).... The engine sounds like a beast. It's a bit rough with a bit of steering play and drum brakes, but after a few things get sorted, it should be a nice ride.

    the Porsche crest is actually the derived from the Stuttgart coat of arms.... The city was built on the site of a stud farm, which explains the horse in the coat of arms. The antlers and red and black stripes are part of the arms of the Kingdom of Wurttemberg.

    Can we go back to talking about Ferraris now? Nice series one bronco btw............

    As I am sure many of you know, the Porsche horse is the same horse depicted by Ferrari as the Cavallino Rampante derived from Stuttgart (also my wife's birthplace).

    actually the horse in the crest of the porsche was a designers lack of creativityIt worked for Enzo , so they stole the idea from Ferrari ,however in German it is known as "homosexuelles tanzendes Pferd" or in english "gay dancing horse". The swords on the shields also depict the fingers like one would find on a french tickler .

    I have heard that the horse was painted on early war planes too and that was some kind of inspiration?
