Niche, I've been trying to find either of the following..,
356 cab (any year) minimal rust, but ok with serious fixer. Doesn't need to be matching # factory paint color is not important.
Or...
Long hood targa, prefer jellybean colors and E or S models if it needs a major restoration. T's are ok, but only if it's already in good shape.
Looking at slowly adding to the "long term hold" category. Trying to have some fun and build a cool collection for when I have that 20 car garage(not anytime soon)

Final pieces are coming together! Speedo (MPH) and analog boost gauge conversion for the clock (while still retaining all the warning lights) are on the way from Germany. WSM did the work, and the communication and service was fantastic!
This was not cheap, but I've gotten in the habit of splurging...

Almost 1 year to the day but I had to post a quick update on my car. Took her out to Willow Springs today and she ran like it was 1998 all over again. (This is a good thing ) I'll get some more pics up shortly, but I thought y'all would enjoy the commentary on the organizers Instagram! I can't pretend like I'm anywhere near enough driver for this beauty, but it was sill fun keeping up with "newer" cars.

Whatever happened to this car? It used to be all over the place on rennlist for years but has since disappeared, I saw one remarkable similar a while back in Japan (although that had the side reflectors) so I'm wondering if it was the same one or if this car just has a strikingly similar cousin.
