Very nice! Enjoy! Love my silver but I equally like the black. I have "just" the Sharkwerks bypass pipe on. Love the sound on the track and around town.

Hi Roche,

Congrats on the 10 GT3..a car I know as well . Like you we have 356, several ones, but not from 58..and they had the orange colour already in 58? Would love to see a photo shoot of these....couldnt be more extreme in colours, orange 356 and black GT3 !

PS: raw, yes, a 10 GT3 is more raw then a 356..harder, louder..

all the best,

Thanks for all the kind words. I'm really happy with this purchase...I promise to get it cleaned up and take more photos...hopefully this weekend.

In '58, orange was a "special color" that they made a run of towards the end of the model year. From the info I've gathered from the 356 Registry, there wasn't an upcharge for the color. I haven't seen too many painted this color and mine is the only coupe I've seen with black interior. I know of an orange/tan coupe with Rudge wheels in the PNW, an orange cab in the TN area and an original orange Speedster in LA (I think).

Great looking car. If you have to go to the dark side that is certainly the way to do it! Congrats!!
