[QUOTE=racer;6470846]I thought all 356's were at least 35K these days.
From the sales prices I've seen, I think $35k to $40k is a reasonable price for a car with original paint (or a quality repaint), good interior, runs good, no real needs - not perfect, but a nice runner.
The "over restored" cars that somebody will pay top $$ (show cars) usually go for much higher (a normal $35k car might bring $75k+, and it's not a rare version/optioned).
This car probably does not run & needs a brake system overhaul, paint & some rust repair, and is a normal 1600 single grille. I like the dark red color, but only for a extra few thousand only if it's the original hue. If it was a Super, I'd throw more coin at it as well.
The only real plus I can see to a notchback is that they were the base for a convertible and a good shop could chop the top and put you in real 356 (not factory built mind you) convertible for relatively cheap (compared to most open 356's). That's a tricky resale proposition though, because many people would not touch it if the factory did not build it.
