It's funny to look back at some of the prices. 10 years ago, there were still 356 coupes in driver condition for 20-25k on ebay. I can remember thinking, whoa, that is a LOT of money to spend when you can buy a good SC or Carrera for 9-12k.
The 356 coupe replicas are VERY tempting. I think it would be a hoot to do one one with a type 4 or even 911 engine.
If I was going to build a dream 356 replica, it would have 964 c4 running gear, and use it as a winter car. Robin egg blue, black interior. Not that I've thought about it a lot.
