356 Speedster Flat6 outlaw build

Wheels make a car, these are perfect imho, suits the style so well.

After throwing about 25K into a Cobra, I've just sold it for 20 because although I was close to finishing the car I couldn't get away from the fact that at the end of the day all I would have is a plastic kit car. It is a shame that after all your excellent fabrication work that is what you will have. It is a real shame you couldn't have started off with a real 356 be it bashed up and or rusty.

He's got a real one too and a very cool one at that!

Totally understand your point but my motivation was never financial. When I was a kid my dad's best friend built his own car from scratch, I still think its such a cool feat to achieve in your life. I vividly remember the black and white picture of Malcolm proudly standing next to his Lotus 7 replica. I enjoy the build process from nothing but parts even more than restoring my Porsche 356A or the Karmann Ghia.

Drive wise looking to move into a 996 Turbo so selling the Boxster and 924 Le Mans plus a load of parts, both kidneys so please keep an eye out for my future parts advert.
