Woo hoo! Got home from shooting a 75 at the club this evening and noticed the beta 356 forum had new traffic. I'm excited to see this new chapter unfold at the 356 Registry. I know there are several cross over VW/356 enthusiasts. Many have chosen not to subscibe to 356talk in the past due to the text only based format. I look forward to seeing new people/faces join the Registry and use this forum to help answer questions and especially share pics! You don't need a 356 to participate! Just appreciate the 356 & want to learn more about them.
I've been a member of 356 talk since I bought my 356 in 1998. Back then thesamba.com was VWPlanet.com and there was also Type2.com(similar to 356 talk - text based). A lot has changed since then and I'm glad to see this new forum.
Thank you to Brian O'Kelly, Barry Brisco, Rick Dill, Robin Hansen, Chuck House, the 356 Trustee's & of course Everett for giving us an avenue to express our opinions about this topic.
Drive 'Em!

| From looking at it briefly, it does look fantastic. I like the idea of a little more stringent rules, usernames being an actual full name, etc....great job. I was diggin' the picture posts already. |

I agree,,,the picture album has great potential! Already 27 pages of pics!
Most of which are for you early 356 fans !

If newer is supposedly always better, why are you driving a 356 instead of a Boxster?

My new(er) '59 cab is much better than those old, cramped, slow, Pre-As.
