I was gonna say, $3600 for a replacement front clip sounds downright reasonable. You can't even get a new clip for an older Lexus for that money.

Pretty soon all these great cars will be sitting in the man cave garages of fund managers and plastic surgeons, to be polished monthly and driven semi-annually -- and that's a damn shame....
I drove my '64SC to work today. That's after the 425 mile drive yesterday. You'd be surprised how many 356s are driven frequently. They are likely the most usable 50 year old car around.

I live in the Porsche-free wilderness of Northern NY, but I just got back from a month long, 8600 mile coast to coast trip in my SC coupe, including 10 days in Southern/Central California.
I saw three 356's displayed in boutique car dealerships, but only 1 other one on the road -- pretty sad...

I followed this for a bit on the way to work yesterday. I love having KCW in town, we have more aircooled VWs dragging their bellies per capita than anywhere else on earth.
