Change of colour, and I'd roll in one of these :hangloose:

No other info on the car, unfortunately!

I don't have a problem with the color, smoothness or the fact that it's lowered. It just looks kak when your wheels are almost touching each other.

I like it... looks like a specially made chassis with a fibreglass body bolted to it.

Yes - I am not a purist - but hey I think looks truly awful. Its TOO low and there is nothing filling the wheel arches. Not saying that mine is perfect, but I think THIS is how a 356 should look - and probably would have looked if they had kept up production for a couple more years!
