Car articles about Porsche 356 A 1600 Convertible D by year
Claude Storez was one of the best sports car drivers in France in the 1950s before his death as a racing driver in 1959. His car died with him: a one-off Porsche 356 Carrera Speedster re-bodied by Zagato, which was resurrected 18 times half a century later. This article traces the career of Claude Storez and shows historical footage of his lost Zagato Porsche.
In 1959, the range of sports cars on offer was still quite limited. The magazine 'hobby' counted around 30 models and the comparison fitted onto just a few magazine pages. The author Werner Oswald saw the reason for the comparatively small number of models on offer in the transition to self-supporting bodies and the need for rationalization. This report reproduces the original wording of the article at the time and shows the vehicles mentioned in over 170 archive photos as well as in many original sales brochures
