Nice looking cars. Saw one recently at the first Australian 356 "Holiday" after its 1000km trip.

I'm almost compelled to buy it just to get my hands on the rear window aluminum/unobtainium trim for my '61 notch.

Steve, Just to let you know. As of August, 2018 I am the new owner of 202086 from out of Brookfield, (Milwaukee) Wisconsin. Despite the 1961 attribution on your list my COA shows 202086 to be a '62 car, not a '61. It is titled as a '62. Fussing with many small items to improve the car but it is so complete that I fear it might be considered OCD behavior. I have many original parts and history if you are interested. Thanks for your efforts with this list.

Dave

I see that the member who started this thread back in 2013 has posted his Notchback on Bring a Trailer. Now at $17k:

I believe this one was sold on BAT a while back. remember some pretty badly repaired front end damage, inner fenders were crumpled beyond repair. If not that car, i take it back. nice combo.
