Porsche 906 E
I have gotten a great appreciation for German built cars working for Pap-Parts so I really enjoy traveling to racetracks with our sister company, Truechoice Motorsports. It gives me a chance to see some great examples of German engineering. This Porsche 906E was owned by the late Henry Paine III of Payne Engineering of Scott Depot, WV and now his son, Henry Payne III is carrying on the Vintage racing Tradition. The late Henry Paine III was just awarded the Prestigious Charlie Gibson Memorial Award by Sasco Sports at this years SVRA awards Banquet. Here are some pic’s of the beautiful restoration done on this car.

I beleive that Henry also had a 904 and a 908 to make a full set. Henry also helped develop the Porsche electronics for the car that held the Mulsane straightaway record. He had close ties to Porsche and was a true enthusiast, he let the local SCCA chapter use his businesses 2+ mile track for special events until insurance stepped in.
