OK, so this is not my car, though I seriously wish it was. It is my parent's car and since they have no computer skills, I put it up for them. It is a 1965 Porsche 356 C, completely restored. My parents are the original owners; they bought the car from Niello Porsche in Sacramento in early 1966. They traded in a deteriorating '63 convertible straight across for it, though in retrospect they wish they would have kept the '63. This car has been through 3 kids (all three were brought home from the hospital in it) and a home daycare business, so needless to say it was severely thrashed until they had it restored in the early nineties. As you can see, the restoration turned out beautiful.

Note the vintage headlight grills; these aren't repro's.

I keep threatening to do a little midnight auto and put this motor in my crewcab. It purrs, and it has a Bursch exhaust that gives it a throaty growl for an engine its size.

All original interior; that steering wheel is worth a pretty penny. Also note the original Blaupunkt 6-volt AM radio and Blaupunkt speakers.

Nice car, your comment about it not being your car? If your parents own it, it's as good as yours. I have a old car as well and my kids " borrow it" some times. I think it is nice they think and old car is cool and want to show it off to their friends.
