Hi
I had a similar sounding problem on my 912. I struggled to get my head around it as I was getting fuel but we changed the fuel pump and problem solved. I would definitely try an electric pump.
Good luck

Hi Having been without a fun car since I sold my 912 a couple of years ago and the 356 is in bits and not looking like being done anywhere in the Near future I need a petrol fix so I thought I would ask here. Budget is sub 30k (prefnear 25as I don’t know what the 356 will cost yet). Happy for it to ...

Hi
Ive got a pair off H1 headlights I’d sell. Pm me if your interested. They are LHD.
Thanks

All paid. Thanks for all the hard work

No idea about the car, but my 1960 356 was originally registered with YOB 3 as it’s plate. On the AFN kardex YOB 3 November 1960. Then according to the kardex was changed to 5 EYX in 1967. Not sure when it got its current number.

Thanks for the replies. Rhd racer. Interestuing thread, i will finish the read tonight. I was thinking rolling restoration, get all mechanicals how i want them and then look at the bodywork. I realise it will cost doing it this way but i will have a happy wife with the initial outlay and a car sorte...

Hi Was just after some more advice if that’s ok. Been thinking about something newer than I’m used to that I can do some longer trips in with my wife, so a bit more comfort and reliability/ease. I’m restoring a 1960 356, have a 1963 beetle and recently sold a 1967 912. Originally I was looking at ei...

Thanks for the replies. That is a very compelling case for the 993. The head says the 997 would probably do everything I want it to perfectly and I would really enjoy it. But the heart says I want the 993. I think I would enjoy the process of getting it how I want it. And isn’t the hunt for a decent...

So the 993 has a few fans, that’s good to hear. I understand I would be at the very bottom off the ladder on these and that a my big concern but I’m happy to sort as I go as long as I can still go. I’m not allergic to a socket set and can work on a car, plus I have friends that a far cleverer than m...

Hi Since selling my 912 and deciding on keeping the 356 ive been looking around at getting something a bit more modern, something that i can go away in for the weekend with the wife and she can enjoy as well. A comfy ish grand tourer (must be 2 plus 2) that goes all right when i want it to. So i nar...

I think they are only standard M10 x 50 or 55 12.9 grade cap screws from memory. It will be stamped on the head, then let me know the length under the head and the diamater of the shank.
Let me know i may have some here.

I have been looking to sell a 356 project and buy something more modern for the last few month and there are a few things i have noticed compared to when i bought the 912/356. The 356. My opinion is the interest is still there amongst the 40 plus age group. I put the car up on DDK and put the "...

Withdrawn from sale Hi Been thinking about this for a while but a couple of brushes with health in the family have made me realise that i dont want to wait around finishing this car and that i would rather have something that we can enjoy now and since selling my 912 I have no usable fun car. It won...

Hi
I have a set of 6 maestro videos including the tune up video.
No idea on value so thinking £100 if you think differently and fancy making an offer then that would be be more than welcomed.
Thanks
