Dead And Bloated 356

Would love to get my hands on that steering wheel in the last photo.

Definitely a period original which would sweeten the deal Pat. That wheel would certainly be worth more than the whole car its attached to...

not sure is they these are completely dead...

Sure Jeff, these constitute nice project cars today. 20 years ago they would have been considered dead for sure. Okay they are just bloated now.

What is left of a 1958 coupe

Thanks for posting this! I think its made the rounds to just about every 356 related site on the web.

My ultimate fantasy gag for this thing would be to leave it as is but dress the back half like a GT Carrera. Again all fantasy but Install a 4-cam motor, oil tank, alloy GT decklid, plastic windows, GT wheels, lay a GT tank against the firewall there. Every Carrera GT detail to make it convincing that some shithead really cut up a super rare car to build this nightmare.
Then take it to Dana point or one of the Registry Holidays. Equipped of course with micro-phones and lots a cameras to catch all the outrage. How much fun would that be to watch?
