Local guy Dave has an *early* 56 Single (tube trans carrier, etc) he found "in the hills" of Nor Cal.
His plan is to make it a driver, he's going to handle the metal work, but before that he brought it to us to have the suspension, brakes, and steering sorted.
Before:
During:
After:
Thread on the work here... http://lowbus.com/BB/index.php?topic=1133.0
Dave's bringing it back for wiring, glass, and ??? once the metal work in complete. |

"That's not supposed to look like that"
My personal '64 Sunroof Notch in OG Black with Red inteior
The every evolving Vintage Speed 11G is getting more goods.
Done projects here - http://lowbus.com/BB/index.php?board=45.0
Jeff's 15 was in for more upgrades
Jeff also bought the shop '50 Hardtop and had me do some work to it as well. While it was back I got a shot I never had a chance to when I owned all 3 of these.
Speaking of the Porsche, it's "done" for now.
