Fabulous find and hope you keep the thread going with lots of photos and updates... wish I were closer to see one of the 901s... I'm sure you and your partner will do a fantastic job!

Fantastic! After seeing the title I installed myself on the couch with my iPad to enjoy the story. A matching numbers 901 is the ultimate find in my opinion. Enjoy the ride!

Porsche guy's Lotto win. Congrats!
If I ever need a gatekeeper for a secret I will know who to call. Perseverance and patience pay off.

It's cool to see stuff like this is still out there...congrats.
Fantastic story.
1 of 21 or 1 of 85... Gives hope that other examples are out there, squirreled away in the backs of garages
Thanks for sharing
Congratulations on a great find.
What do you know of the story from the US serviceman's ownership to the present ?
Did you have any idea how long its been sitting in MO. and in that state of repair ?
Was the transmission what finally put it here to rest ?
We await the mysteries of the story..... which is always good reading !
