E20: We interview a Porsche FANATIC - our chat ...
This episode we chat with Frank Cassidy. He's a man who’s not just a Porsche collector, not just an enthusiast or even just a fanatic. Frank’s love affair with air-cooled Porsches goes much deeper than that. Porsche is his love, his life. Frank’s business Boxengasse, is a 100 acre estate in the English countryside that not only holds one of the world’s most stunning collections of air-cooled 911s, but has become a location for Porsche restorers, enthusiasts and events. This chat was really a treat. Please rate, subscribe and share. Wanna get in touch with us? We'd love to hear from you.. contact@thedriveshow.com.au or find us on insta @thedriveshow.com.au
