My favorite car of all time - 356 Porsche Speedster -
My wife bought me a CMC 1957 356 Porsche Speedster kit - if it were real I would not drive it.
I have been talking about this for years...Now I have one.
thanks for letting me join. . . . .
She will look great next to my 1969 Karmann Ghia
P.S. I am already driving my wife crazy....

When you said "KIT" I thought you were going to be building it from scratch. This is even better. And it looks to be a nicely one example too. Enjoy the Speedster and "Welcome to the Madness".
Thank you sir...appreciate the words...
Im not allowed to have any more projects until I finish some.... I also design and build Reverse Trikes...so I have a few of those to finish.
Haahahahaaa
Welcome to the Ma... aw dammit, Robert beat me to it. 🥴
Welcome Anyway! BTW, nice Ghia!
Haahahaaa.... thanks guys !
Awesome wife, awesome Speedster. Love the slammed Ghia too! Yeah, hang out with us.
Nice score on the Speedster! 'Welcome To The Madness' known as replicar ownership. 
Lowered Ghia also earns you another Gold Star on your Man Card. 
Here's wishing you many miles of top-down cruising. 
Welcome aboard. Your wife is a real gem for doing this for you.
Snazzy rides and welcome to the madness. Give your wife my compliments, she's a real keeper. Hey, what's your name?
Mike
Thank you all for the acceptance and kind words.
Name is Todd, from Tennessee, just outside Knoxville.
As soon as I heal up I will be getting into it a bit more. Car came from Colorado, elevation....over a mile high and no humidity....new home 750' above sea level and 100% humidity....needs some tuning. Brake are brand new and pulls to the right pretty good. But, I got it. Just need some time with her.
Thanks again all.
Todd
Congrats Todd, great looking speedster! Awesome gift from an equally awesome wife!! Following on with the theme...."Welcome to the Madness"....it's incurable.
Thank you, at least I can just drive this one. This is not a project yet... I will be finishing my current reverse trike, then on to a redo of the Ghia and then the 356. Fun times...
Thanks again!
Welcome!
You have a great wife! Enjoy your new ride!
Someone has to say it - your garage is an inspiration and relief to many of us here.
Just great the way it is organized...
Bob.... I have been gone to Colorado for a year and threw a bunch of "life" in there so my wife would not have to deal with my stuff while I was away on work. I have been trying to get it back into some sort of order... long way to go. THANK YOU !!!
Since I have been home I have given away 3 VW projects, small sailboat, small fishing boat and more stuff soon. Need to get down to just a few projects. Unclutter my life a bit more... be able to enjoy the drive time....
Thanks again !!!
Congratulations on two awesome cars and an awesome wife!
Thank you sir
