That car is WRECKED! Literally and figuratively. Great parts car, but I wouldn't pay more than the $600 it's at now.

What a shame. :-(

It would be my opinion that it is a true Bumblebee. Just a little earlier than mine.

Was.....past tense...

I am not sure how to list this on the Registry...as a survivor or as destroyed...can this one even be saved?

I am sure it could be saved....there are lots of 356s of various types that are nothing more than original VIN plates with new everything else.
that is about what that one needs..
It must have been sitting for a very long time since the pics of the interior look quite nice, considering what the outside looks like.

Would obviously require lots of time and tons of money and parts, along with obtaining stock in a sheet metal manufacturer

then the question becomes not, can it be saved, but, should it be saved?
