Introducing Porthos...

One of those really long, long forgotten French sportscar makes. Only the insiders who go to the bottom of everything have ever heard about it. This photo is from 2 July 1907 , the Grand Prix of the French Automobile Club (TeamDan.com) at Circuit de la Seine-Inférieure. We understand that driver Emile Stricker dropped out of the race after just 4 laps the car dropped out of the race due to steering problems. Take a look at the enlarged view (click) and judging from the low mounted steering arm one can understand what may have happened. (photo postcard from collection Bob Swanson)
