Discovery of the oldest surviving German-made Porsche 356

What is today the oldest surviving German-made Porsche 356 was missing for decades.

A mysterious call led two collectors to rescue it on a movie mission, to later restore it.

The music becomes dramatic, the shots move faster and faster, and the action builds at a dizzying pace to a seemingly hopeless situation... and someone comes to the rescue at the last minute.

It's very typical of action movies.

But what happens in reality?

This is a story of real life.

And some of the events were so dramatic that they might as well be made into movies.

The 71-year-old protagonist is named after Porsche 356 and is one of the automotive treasures of the 20th century.

He was about to be lost forever, although he was finally saved.
