The car was originally from Austraila. The guys name is Dink Farmer I believe. He does restorations. I sold a Roadster project to a client of his. He said he paid $200,000 for it, and then had to sort it out. I wouldn't believe the numbers, but the car is absolutely the ultimate 356 Outlaw!!

Pretty weird but kind of cool. A little less chrome and scoops and a little more stealth and I'd want one, but not at $200k.

I like it. Pretty damn slick. It looks fast sitting still and that image is hard to achieve nowadays.

Good job:

Retrotech... who are you ? I see Mosier Oregon. Is this Gary ?

Brad, go to route30classics.com to see who "retrotech" is. Has a beautiful spot in the Columbia Gorge about 60 miles east of Portland.

Looks like Gary's work though... someone is very good.

Damnit!

I do so desperately want a periscope rear view mirror. I am sure that then my wife would be complete. errr my life would be complete.
