1956 Cabriolet Restoration


Jim Phillips
  
Attached are photos of my in-progress 1956 356A cabriolet restoration. I have owned the car since 1968 and started a major restoration almost 2 years ago that, thus far, includes replacement of the front axle beam, floor pans, tunnel, longitudinals and door sills, battery box and a lot of "swiss cheese" elsewhere. These photographs show only a small amount of the metal replacement already completed and there is quite a bit remaining. The tunnel was fabricated from scratch, the axle beam was supplied by Jim at EASY and the pans, etc. were purchased from a supplier. The work is going much slower than  anticipated......but it also spreads the cash flow over a longer period of time and softens 
the blow a little.
