Help identifying top + wheels

You are correct!

Oh good, glad the research was pointed in the right direction - any thoughts on fair market value?

We are owners of plastic replicas not real cars.  Most won't pay extra for real patina old stock.  Look on eBay or the SAMBA for like items to get idea of value.  Costly to ship these items too.

The value of those wheels is going to be in finding someone who is doing a resto on a real 356. We're fine with the $70 repros from JBugs, etc. I would think Pelican, Rennlist, and, like Wolfagang says, The Samba would be a good place to advertise.

As for the top, you might try BAT, but from what I understand, they're getting more picky about what they'll list. All the above would be good places, too.

You might try eBay with a good reserve, too. To get any money out of them, you're going to have to find someone who really wants them. I've seen wheels go for $25/ea.  I've also seen late 50's-early 60's date matched sets go for $2,500-$3,000.

Certainly can relate to the sentiment @WOLFGANG.

@dlearl476 - Very much appreciated. This is a new space for me so I appreciate the overview of the preferred sites. I've got the same question on Pelican, but did not know the others.

One last one @vibsa 356 Registry. Although I think it’s convoluted to sign up, which you have to do to post.

356 Registry actually might be the best place to sell your stuff, now that I think of it.

Not totally true, while the vast majority own plasti-cars, there are many Porsche owners hiding.  I know of at least two that have original cars for collection and replicas to drive regularly.
