356a nose on a t5 help
Looking for pictures or info on putting the A front end on a t5 356. Can it be done and look good, does anyone have any pictures of doing it, and finished car?

Should be possible, no too long ago there was a 59 T2 with a 61 T5 nose for sale. I think you will need the T2 hood and drop rail also. I would call Trevor Marshall, 440-two two seven 1840. Tell him what you are thinking, he can make you a clip, or Mike Dejong at RD and discuss the swap.

Never heard of that one. But in the 1970s there was a blue Speedster at Stanford which had been returned to the factory after a crash and they put a B nose on it. Looked a bit odd but good.

Yeah, I just didn't know there was any t5 running around with an A front end. Just curious to see what it takes or looks like
