    Saw these on Facebook, the early cars were pretty strange. Love the 356 B/C wheel.

    I saw those pics as well. I am curious as to the history of those, never heard of them before (I am a neophyte after all).

    well, there are tons of „barbarossa“ pics out there, just imagine how many stories had been done about that very prototype…
    maybe a link to the facebook, or a screenshot of the „history of those“ to have likewise infos…

    I want to say that they made 3 of these early Prototypes and this is the only known remaining. I had a good look at it many years ago on the Lawn at Pebble Beach.
    Yes. Many 356 items and a very strange Sunroof. I believe it went forward. Owners last name was Don Meluzio. Enjoy T

    I saw that car at the Lake Placid Parade concours, Porsche Auto Recyclers (PAR) in NY had it for a while and sold it probably at a very good price because people doubted it’s originality.

    Prototypes were 13321 through 13330 and 13394. Built between 1962 and 64
