    Meanwhile, in the Garage . . .

    What is it about 356s and garages?

    Is it their size?, the shape?, what?

    Park one, and it's like every old mattress, empty box, and newspaper in the 'hood magically shows up, jumps on top, buries the thing . . .

    Or maybe it's not the Owners fault. Maybe the car's just nesting!

    Anyway, here's one . . . turned up after a casual conversation. Parked 30 years.

    If this were your car . . . . what would you do?

    Flip it?

    Restore it?



    Me?

    I'd change the oil, check the brakes, lash the valves . . . then hit the road.

    Wouldn't even wash it.

    No kidding.

    The top, the gaps, that tool roll . . . . . . in 20-plus years, do you know how many times I've ever seen original tan vinyl floor mats?

    And check out that dash!

    Guy says he was 'thinking of me' when he took the photos.

    Next time? ---- skip the camera ---- CALL ME!!! . . . . . . . 'n take me with ya!

    Wow - At least on the pics this looks like a great find. How does it look underneath? Did it turn up in SoCal? I am going to look in every garage today ...
