Porsche restoration services are one of Personalized Autohaus’ specialties, and the personal passion of Personalized Autohaus founder Wayne Baker. So it should come as no surprise that when Wayne participated in the 2000 Tour Auto in France he and co-driver Yves Junne were ecstatic about driving a 1967 Porsche 910 owned by Stanley Gold.

Traditionally, the race begins in Paris at the Tracadero in front of the Eiffel Tower and lasts for five days straight—during which hundreds of spectators line up alongside the road to watch Porsche Spiders and other amazing cars zoom by. Cars have to be 1980 or older to enter so there are always some beautiful cars in the race!
