Hey guys I will start off with I know Zip, nada, zero about 356's hence my question. Went and looked at a 1961 356 B super 90 today. I was happy to see that it is a pretty solid car. It runs and drives, carbs were just rebuilt and gas tank cleaned and boiled. New fuel lines also. Floors and trunk area look and feel very solid.
Problem areas: Old red repaint over white. Guages don't work (most of the time)
Driver side rear brake seems to be dragging. Headliner shot and most side window seals are bad.
He has new head liner and some seals. Car drove ok, starts right up and idles smooth. Overall I like it. He is asking $15k, but would take my 88 944 and $6k cash. I value my 944 at $7k (68K miles and all major service done this year).
Check out the picrures and let me know what you think. Keep in mind if i would get it I would fix the rear brake issue and just drive the car while collecting parts to restore it. I am not looking for a concourse restoration, just want to keep it nice orginal and enjoy the sunny day drives. - Thanks!
