A celebration of the Porsche 356 and its Air-Cooled Brethren through 1998
This event was started several decades ago by the Porsche 356 Owners Group (POG), and was intended to embrace the spirit of the Marque’s origins as it fostered camaraderie between, and awareness of, the Air-Cooled enthusiast who through the years have kept these vintage Porsches alive and on the road.
The Air-Cooled “boxer” configuration is the engine design that has defined Porsche from the Pre-A 356 of the early 1950s all the way through 1998 and the venerable 993 and its derivatives. Roughly 5 decades of Air-Cooled goodness.
As these models have all become classics, we also reach the 70th Anniversary of PCA. We wanted to expand this event – while simultaneously turning it back to its roots featuring the 356 while also celebrating its younger siblings from 1965 – 1998 with this all Air-Cooled event!
As compelling as the cars are, the stories and the individuality behind each of them and their ownership is even more so. So be sure to join us for this low-key fun event.
