What do you guys think about European Collectibles located in Costa Mesa?

Any comments on the 1959 356A Cab they have for $28.5?

Has anyone been up there and seen this car?

Good people.... Not cheap. If you have time to search for a private seller you may save a lot of money. If not, it's one of the good outfits out there...

Max.......I bought my Outlaw from EC. They are good guys to work with. They usually have a range of cars from really nice concours level cars to fixer-uppers. They have always been truthful with any car I have inquired about, telling me exactly what the car needs.
I had a problem with the GT gas tank in the Outlaw, and they repaired it, no charge. This was after I signed the paper stating "as-is, no warranty"!

I found my ex Dick Barbour Roadster in the back room there (see this months Excellence). They were good to work with, they get a premium for their cars, but where else can you go to see an inventory of 356's? I would say their in house restored cars are nice driver quality, but not the super high end PCA concours restos.

If you are interested in a 356 Coupe, I know of one belonging the best independent dealer in the UK. Still located in CA, the car is 100% original, first owner, 140,000 miles, engine rebuild at 90K plus, original paint, redone interior.

Car will be delivered in concours condition for GBP 18000.

Send me a PM with your email if you want the lead.

Good luck in your search.
