Been wanting a 356 Speedster for ever and I can finally say I own one!!! Got what I think is a good deal on Craigslist and took delivery last week. Took it to the shop for a complete go through and some minor tweaks and fixes. So far the shop is giving it a clean bill of health. Car is complete and just needs paint or color sand. It's black and looks like it was never color sanded or painted and not prepped well. I will post pics as soon as i get it back from the shop.

Looking forward to learning more and meeting some so cal speedster owners.

Got her back from da shop and she is running great. Now I can have fun driving her while I figure out next steps. It needs a paint job pretty bad...

I agree with that trucks guy...looks great! And welcome to the madness (although I haven't found anyone all that mad. A little silly and juvenile maybe...).

Mflowin
