A 356 Birthday : 1959 Convertible D


Alberto Perez-Dimaggio

I got the car as a surprise birthday present from my then-girlfriend, now wife (needless to say!). What I like best about it is that I drive it pretty much everyday (yes, everyday) with the exception of snowy or icy days, which where I live is about 4-5 months out of the year!! I live in Northern Illinois. It does not have a Carrera 2 engine. The person we bought the car from put that on. Don't ask me why because I've yet to figure it out since Carrera 2 engines didn't come out until 3 years later!! I joined the Registry this spring. I am very proud of the car and judging from the tons of attention that baby gets in the road, so is my wife!!

Pictures: Wouldn't you like a birthday present like this!?

The "Carrera 2" script was put on by the previous owner. There isn't a Carrera motor in there!
