That looks like the car Johnny Johnson sold some time in the last year. Johnny buys and sells nice Porsches and lives in Charlottesville, VA. You can see the car here.

Don't know the power other than a Porsche with solexes or the Weber versions. She throw oil at bit--I followed her and had a it all over Frieda. Nice little car. She was entered in the 2007 RPM (Richmond Porsche Meet). Note the sunroof. Johnny Johnson told me he sold it awhile back. Note that Frieda is sitting next to her in the last photo.

Without sounding too snarky, is that a nice car? A pretty neat example of what an Outlaw could be, or is it just a boy racer?

I'm really new to 356s and jumped into the deep end with a '55 Continental and '65 SC (both still projects) bought within about a year of each other. I'm still trying to figure out what the general "rules" are concerning restoration/modification and such. And there are ALWAYS rules . . .

Thanks in advance for an honest answer.

The only rules are as follows:

If you are restoring, everything must be brought back to as it was when it left the factory. Any changes, even very minor ones, to what the factory originally produced is not a restoration by definition.

If you are not restoring the car...there are no rules. Do whatever will make you happy.
