How would you rate this 61T5
 

Hi everybody.

I am new on this board, and seek your opinions and advice.
I have had a 356 itch for sometime now, and today I had a look and test drive in a car that I really like.

Its a 61 T5 coupe 1600 Super. Restored 10 year ago from the bottom up, with full documentation, 5 binders with pictures etc.
I belive the car is a US sepc 356, but I am not sure.

The car still have some patina, but I really like that.

The real question for me is. How original does the car appear to be from the pictures?
AND what does the "Super" mean compared to a normal 1600 356B?

S 75 hp engine. Nice looking car from the pics.

normal is a bit underpowered with 60hp, the super is a great car to drive.

Looks like a nice car. The aluminum 'Typenschild' is in the wrong spot - it should be next to the fuel tank on the passenger side. If it isn't 'fixed' with bondo, go for it.

Looks good, drives good and the price is right go for it. The T5s were nice cars and tight.
Let us know if you took the leap.
best of luck from Virginia

Yeah! the car is nice although the model is very old!
