I'd be using replica Speedster bucket seats, if this were to happen. I'd prefer a coupe as you may know, but I havent ruled out a Speedster.

Anyone have a copy of issue one they have finished with? My OCD won't let me rest till I get a copy if not does anyone know if a reprint is planned? (I know the editor frequents these boards)
Lmk if you can help.

What Porsche 356 books would you recommend for a good read? Technical or historical is fine.

Thanks in advance.

I have been wondering how practical Speedsters are for tall people like myself? (I'm 6'1) I'm thinking in particular with the hood up, but also with the hood down given that the windscreen is so low.

Yes, I'd heard that, however the website was updated late last year to say the coupes have been put back into production. Hopefully when I finally raise the cash he'll sell me one!

What makes you think that?

Found this in an old thread, so some of you may have already had the pleasure, if not click here http://gallery.mac.com/tomdewalt#100043 to see Tom De Walt's sublime 'green hornet' 356a coupe replica :wub:

Ok, thanks for the info.

I've just been having a dig around the site, (which is great btw) and found a few threads and pics of 356 coupes. If anyones intresed and if I have the time, I'll compile all the pics and links to the threads and post them in this thread at the weekend.

Dan Pm 356 outlaw on here. Pretty sure he has M&W replica coupe. I won't start bugging people with pms :) but if he'd like to post some pics I'd love to see them, same goes for anyone else. I do remember that coupe in Mexico from a good few years back, was rather put off importing one from so f...

Yes, tried both of those, the first one bounced back to me, and my email to the second address has thus far gone unanswered. Is he still trading do you know?

Been trying to contact Blocks Books with a question about ordering, don't seem to respond to emails? Are they still in business?

Hi, seen lots of very nice Speedsters around here, which is great. But is anyone building or running a 356 Coupe replica? Is love to see them If you are as I'm considering a coupe rep myself.

Cheers

I'd like to know this too, I've seen a couple of speedster replicas that have had this done and it looks great, adding a real touch of authenticity. Didn't some early beetles have an under dash hanbrake set up?
