I've always wanted a Porsche 356, but they're priced out of my range.

The Haynes car has meaning to me as I've worked at the company Elwood Haynes started in 1912 for the last 37 years. My issue is the car is currently in Solingen, Germany, and I'm not sure how much it would be to insure and ship to the States. I'll be in Germany in January and February, so I'm trying to arrange an inspection while I'm there.

MrBayAreaHokie • 01/07/25 09:26 PM ET
Driving one of those would be similar to driving an early 70s 911/912

BMW version of a Datsun 510.
