This has really thrown me now, maybe I'm going mad... The car was for sale 4 years ago at Mick Arnold's Classics on the Gold Coast, Queensland. I was actually chasing a 911 E there at the time. The car stunned me and I crawled all over it.

My wife is always calling me senile or dyslexic (sorry not trying to offend anyone) so maybe I sat in the "passenger side" and have just got myself mixed up? Oh dear, I hope my wife doesn't see this...

I'm sure it's a "one of".

Slightly off this particular topic, yesterday evening I was sitting in the bus stuck in downtown Brussels traffic when, off to the very left of my left eye, comes a-sliding a familiar nose: 356. It was, off all things (and for all I know), a 356 speedster cab, and I think it was the real thing as I saw what I believe to be a Karmann badge (even though that was difficult to see from my seat). The hood was down, ooohhh... no, not the driver, I mean the nice car.
(were speedsters built byKarmann????).

I could do without all the scoops, they don't really fit the car and looked tacked on. Clean it up and that car would be hot.

Photoshop anyone?

It's re-worked via MS Paint, no more scoops.

I like it! Very clean.

Sorry. Without the scoops, it goes from being a bad-*ssed take-no-prisoners kind of machine, to kind of looking like a '49 Mercury.(Which in itself is no bad thing) The scoops work for me! Great car!

So is this a one-off car? I'm still confused about whether there is only one of these cars out there. And if so, why was he racing at Thunderhill with a bunch of DE cars?

Shuie 06-24-2004 07:44 AM
so what is it? rebodied 914? chop top 356?
