This issue of Classic Porsche showcases a duo of air-cooled Porsches with extraordinary provenance: prototypes of the 911 Targa and the 911 S. Following exhaustive analysis of build records, as well as consultation with some of the industry's leading automotive forensic investigators, each car has revealed stories hitherto unknown, especially in the case of the 911 S — an extremely lucky find buried beneath a mountain of redundant domestic furniture in Johannesburg!

Issue Summary:
From Porsche's early vision of a semi-open-top 911 to Stuttgart Classica's bonkers RSR project and the Makellos 911 SC Safari, we present a selection of the most exciting air-cooled classics.
