Canepa Design – Classic Porsche Le Mans Racing Car

This image is of the main workshop area inside the Canepa Design facility in Scotts Valley, California.

Canepa Design is owned and run by ex-racing driver Bruce Canepa and he is renowned for his quality work tuning certain car makes such as Porsche’s, Ford’s, as well as taking time to restore classics from the likes of Carol Shelby etc.

The workshop area you see here is hidden behind the main entrance area where a variety of racing cars and rare automobiles from all over the world can be found, and then behind this workshop was the warehouse area where I was stunned to find so many original racing cars from the likes of Le Mans in the 70’s all the way through to current racing cars like the new Ford GT40.

Stunning place to visit if you’re into your cars as much as I am, you definitely won’t be dissapointed that’s for sure.

Taken in February 2007 when I was snapping and writing the "California Dreaming Part 2" magazine feature for Fast & Modified car magazine.
