Looks great!

This car made it to its first car show. (356 club show/swap in Chino Hills)
Of course it's not finished, but mechanically it's getting there. Here's a video of my driving impressions.

So happy to be back on the road.

I've been working on my 356 again after dealing with lots of shoddy chrome work. Ugh.

Here I re-assembled the door handles and made the locks match the original ignition key code confirmed by my kardex.

So many parts in a handle especially if you include the tumbler pins and springs which I also took apart

I learned the difference between right and left handed components. It turns out he the handles are the same, but the tumblers and push button sliders are handed

A video is worth a thousand words

Hi Tom, nice that you get to finally drive it. Last winter your transmission videos were extremely useful to watch several times. They helped get me through a successful rebuild. It really wasn’t so scary.

This video needs its own link. too many people have trouble with keys to have this buried in a restoration thread.
