The first one (black) is real car - so no grief from PCA.  Says sale pending.

Hello WG

Are we sure the black one is a real 356? Not that it matters one way or the other, but I think it's a replica with borderline deceptive verbiage to confuse people.

The Porsche vin numbers from 1959 to 1968 are are 6 digits.  The vin listed appears to be from a 74 VW.  

The pan is NOT from a 356.   The ad states that the foundation of each Carrera CoachWerks 356 Coupe is new tubular chassis.  You'll also note the car has a VW ebrake lever mounted on the center tunnel, forward of the gear shifter. 

The motor is listed as a 2232. That's pretty clearly a VW motor.

The body has no drip rails. 

The billet steering shaft clamp.

The VW gas tank and the very obvious shape/style of the FRUNK.

I'm leaning towards replica. Let the buyer beware.

Ted
