It is indeed. Can you give some more details... what makes it special, what makes it different from the other Fageol Porsches already featured here.....

Lou Fageol's twin-engine Porsche 356 ,shot in August 1953 at Paine Field in Everett, Washington, during the Seattle Seafair SCCA races. This would be the predecessor of Fageol’s more radical Twin-Porsche . :)

Excellent answer, yes. This was the first incarnation of the car and the only one that looked anything like a Porsche!
