In college I had a new Lebaron 2.2 Turbo Coupe.
A noisy, rough, lumpy thing, but man would it move! Had acres of turbo lag, but once it kicked in, it would snap your neck!
The temptation to keep the 356 would be strong, but yeah, it would take many years for me to fully restore it, so I'd consider finding a serious collector to sell it to.
If that VW Type 2 was a split window, it would likely be worth almost as much in that condition as that Porsche is in that condition.
