Porsche Service, Repair and Consignment Sales Redwood City - Watch Porsche legend Jeff Zwart frolic in the snow in his 356 - Bosch European Redwood City - (650) 368-3000



Screencap from a short film profiling racing driver Jeff Zwart throwing his 1953 Porsche 356 Pre A around in the snow.



Racing driver Jeff Zwart picked up a 1953 Porsche 356 Pre A to use as a historical prop in a Cayennecommercial, then decided to keep it when the filming was done. Then, explaining to filmmaker Will Roegge that his vintage toy does really well in slippery conditions, Zwart throws it around in the Colorado snow – on pencil-thin studded tires on 16-inch wheels – to prove the point.

Don't expect roostertails in this winter wonderland video, however; with just about 60 horsepower at sea level, gumption drops to about 40 hp when playing at 9,000 mountainous feet. But that's still plenty to work as a testament to the phrase, "If you've got it, flaunt it," and you can watch it below.
