Any 356 specialists in North Staffordshire area?

356 T2 Speedster in Staffordshire
We would hope there is a competent operation to check and service car locally rather than send it to Essex

Lots of cars have been built with oversized engines which is unfortunate at 1720 cc but this situation seems to be reducing.All 356 ‘s now have to have there exact engine sizes. Pre A’s and earlier were allowed plus 5 % but that’s no longer the case. I had my last car built i...

Re: 1957 RHD 356A for sale.

A registered normal coupe in race condition with HTP’s is at least in 200 k range as costs about 250 k to professionally build.If it’s a Speedster GT or Carrera2 GT start talking at a million
Problem is there are very few people in UK who can build a proper race car.
