	These were at a show I was at on the weekend. The green one had an "Outlaw" badge on the front wing which got me wondering if it was a replica of some sort. So I googled it to find out. Turns out there is a whole "scene" which involves modifying early Porsches which then become known as Outlaws. More info (albeit old) on the green car here: aussieexotics.com/forum/porsche-for-sale/356-outlaws-4233.0.html and more info on Outlaws in general here: www.porscheperfect.com/2009/02/20/outlaw-porsche-356/

	A proper Outlaw badge is an honourable thing. They'd change hands for big money, if anyone was ever willing to sell one... The idea of the Outlaw 356 was basically all-out performance; a Porsche hot-rod - big power, function-over-form race-inspired aesthetic, and a poke in the eye for the purists. You can see the origins of the VW Cal-look in there too - nerf bars, uncompromising stance etc.

	Yep, I love the greenish one as well. It was in VW Magazine Australia a couple of years or so ago and I thought it was the coolest air-cooled car I've ever seen. It very probably still is. Beautiful!

	Nicely written and researched post there Jader! I've always had a thing for old outlaw Porkers - in fact pretty much all porkers! I kinda like the idea of a Cayman (IMO Porsche's nicest, most obtainable current car) done in an outlaw style...
	Porsche 924 - gone Citroen Saxo VTR - not very retro but I loved it - now gone... MK4 Golf GTi 1.8T - gone but hardly remembered... Mini Cooper S R53 - gone BMW 125d Coupe - gone (mostly sideways) Ford Focus RS Mk1 - hello low MPGs and "wanna race me" at every set of lights... 1973 BMW 2002 - Twin 40's, 284 Cam, Revolutions, E21 Recaros + more Porsche Cayman 987 3.4S - here and due to cost me more money than I have

THEN I am going to get one and live the dream They handle soooooooooo well.
