After being harassed to get a newer car and the need for speed, he sold the car on<br />

October 15, 1960 to Gerald J. Selvin, of Wayland, Massachusetts for $1450 and bought<br />

a new Ruby red 1961 S90 Roadster, to this day his only bought-new Porsche!<br />

Over the years, many Porsches passed through the MBHÕs life; some stayed only<br />

brießy, others are still around. He always wondered what happened to the 1300S.<br />

In 2008, while cleaning out some Þles, he came upon some old registration certiÞcates.<br />

In the Þle were certiÞcates for a couple of S90 roadsters and a 1954 1300S cabriolet,<br />

SN 60460, Engine # 50035!<br />

Since the MBH was a member of the 356 Registry, he listed the SNÕs on their web site<br />

inquiring if any one knew what happened to them. Some time went by, Information on<br />

the Þrst S90 appeared. It was demolished in Germany and no longer exists.<br />

Four years later, on January 7, <strong>2013</strong>, the MBH received an email from Siegfried Richter,<br />

a Porsche collector in Germany who now owns 60460, 53 years after he sold it,<br />

inquiring if he had any history on the car.<br />

Much correspondence followed.<br />

60460 was delivered to Porsche Salzburg, Austria on <strong>March</strong> 6, 1954.<br />
