Thats a Carerra engine lid! Is there a 4 cam Carerra under the lid?
That'll ruffle some of the 356 purists in Melbourne for sure!

Nice work on the flames, even though they are a bit naff... I'd prefer the flames over the bullet hole decals though...
did you do the red walls Adamskini?

My pre-A with BRMs gets enough comments from the purists. To clear things up, it doesn't have a sunroof, just more graphics - Sunroofs are rare, rare, rare on a pre-A :thumb

Nice work on the flames, but owner should have known better on a pre A.

nice flames... not what i'd want on a 356 but i don' t have one..... skulls in pith helmets just don't work for me, too bad 80's tattoo.
the red 356 is nice... very nice.
from what little i know about 356's, the race A's at least, had small holes drilled at the ends of the louver cuts to stop the louvers tearing.
btw does anyone else here think 4 cam motors are true uncensored automotive porn? (insert smilie of someone with hairy palms going blind)

Looks great to me, real hotrod. I know those things seem clichëd on rods, but on a porsche... that's guts in my opinion. Coz if ya gonna go and upset purists, I say do it properly like he has.
BTW, your flames look really tasteful. :thumb

Its hard to get the shape right, they look the goods. I also like silver/blue/gunmetal ghost flames on the matt black. I do not know why purists get their panties all twisted up..its not like you cannot repaint it.

purists go nuts coz they are weird sicko control freaks at heart. They want to make everyone else do what they do, and if other people don't listen, they make themselves feel important by putting others down. Standard, "I'm better than you" syndrome.boof2332 wrote:Its hard to get the shape right, they look the goods. I also like silver/blue/gunmetal ghost flames on the matt black.

But don't be mistaken, purists exist just as much in modified circles as in stocker circles. Eg. the whole pobjoy 1916 debate. There's no such thing as "one way to do things right" when it comes to creative stuff. Sure there are lots of wrong/unwise ways, but there's a myirad of good options too.
