The car in the 3rd pic appears to be Jeff Zwart's 356/2 Gmund coupe.

It's on the cover of the recent new PCA "Panorama".

Even same interior.

Yes?

If so.
Good story in "Panorama", he bought the car as a photo prop originally... was going to sell it right after taking the pics... decided to keep it.

The only way I could drag my wifes ass out of bed at 5am is to guarantee there will be dogs present, especially Burmese Mountain Dogs

LOL, looks way different from this angle. The article said the bristol engine was really tall and made the hood look funky, so they raised the fenders above the wheels to dsistract from the hood. They surely do that.
And don't call me shirely.



And from this angle, with big ole wheels and tars is looks way too much like a cobra.
I like.

Not too many red 300 SL Gullwings out on an early Saturday. I'll take the odds it was Mr. Mark and wife.

It had a BMW engine and an Italian body, so this can't be the same model

The article I read say they came with british engines and had bertone (italiano) aluminium bodies, but many of the engines have been replaced with something more powerful over the years.
Sure looks like the same car.
