Without wishing to offend Porsche 356 fans and owners, I’ve come across this guy in American car mags a couple of times. This is a tad extreme....

Sixties Endurance maybe?

Although there was a time when we’d have a laugh about it possibly getting FiA papers, methinks those days are gone, fortunately! Having said that, a bitsa Morgan turned up at Spa Classic for 60s, with the rear of a normal ‘highline’ +4, the front of a SuperSport ‘lowline’ version, a +8 hardtop (not FiA), and wide rear wheels...... It wasn’t on the entry list for the next event though!

The time and effort going into making a flat 6 into a flat 4 for that 356 is impressive. And the turbos hanging out the back is very 935......

Maybe Will should take a look at the Driving Standards discussion, it might put him off the idea.

Best wished Will, not too many candles to blow out, it's harder every year.

:As my brother is also 17. I could just combine the candles to make 34.

I don't think my dad would approve very much...Nor would the fire service either

Cheers again for all the wishes.

I haven't had to many people to call mates so its pleasing to know I've got a fair few on here.
