... My Mom dug up this old photo of my Dad and brought it to me yesterday.
His car, No. 14 is a 1959 Mercedes Benz 300 SL Roadster.
(Cabriolet).
The Silver one behind it is a 1957 Mercedes Benz 300 Gullwing.
This photo was taken during a race in March of 1959 at the San Isidro Airforce Base in the Dominican Republic.
I remember my Dad spinning out right in front of us as he was taking the hairpin curve.
He recovered and finished 2nd.
Happy Porsche-ing,
Pedro
