Re: continental for sale on the BAT and continental list
Thanks for all the welcoming wishes all! and for the Samba link, no I didn't see it but glad I did... I put the first coat of love on 52853 and I am now working on the pan(s). The cabin pans are solid and are cleaning up really nice. Found a great Porsche shop here in Santa Fe (La Carera) with loads of experience with 356's and will have them take apart the engine and do brakes. Thought I'd post a picture of the car's new home... proud of how it turned out as it was a falconry in it's past life.
Cheers, John
Cheers, John

Your car and garage both look great now. I know some people refuse to even wash their old car, but you already have it quite presentable. Enjoy!

Re: continental for sale on the BAT and continental list
John,
Several photos in the BAT album show this fender mounted side mirror on your Continental coupe.
Does the backside of the mirror have any markings on it indicating the manufacturer?
Anyone else recognize this brand exterior mirror?
