Good luck on your adventure. We're pullin for ya.

There has to be replacement panels available. I wouldn't let that deter you from purchasing it.

Did you see the burned barn find 69 Dodge Daytona that sold at Mechum for $90K? The engine compartment had a small fire and there was barn debris over the rest of the car. The wing was mostly frayed fiberglass. It was far messier looking than this 356. You'd be amazed what someone will spend for a "barn fresh" messy car.

On a side note, in the late 1800s my hometown of Wayne, NE and nearby LaPorte were competing for the soon to be built rail line to go thru their respective towns. The RR would only go thru one of the towns and left it up to the two towns to decide who got the line. Legend has it, the towns decided to play a softball game and the winner got the RR. Wayne won, got the rail line, and LaPorte disappeared. The depot is now a Godfather's Pizza.
