The 356 Registry Talk Forum is a wealth of knowledge and some of its members have written excellent reference books on buying restoring and maintaining the 356.

Hello Former lurker, new member. Wrong side of the Atlantic the road (just reverse the image and it will look "right") the tracks (it's fiberglass, I mean glassfibre) My other old car is a 1959 Corvette; who knew that in some places replicas would be reviled. Thank goodness for the DDK [im...
