whats the best 550 site??

I really like the www.356registry.org site for information and pictures of original 356 cars.

Is there somewhere on the web similar for 550 cars???

I'm wanting to do some research on original cars and what was on them and such. Starting some research for a future project.

Steve:

Have you tried www.spyderclub.com?

Also try www.speedsters.co.uk ( united kingdom site) which has a subsection all with spyders of both 550 and 718 sec's listed

www.spyderclub.com

Doesn't ever seem to work?

I am doing some research to find out as much as I can on the originals. I have a book for the 356 that was really informational also and maybe there is something similar for the 550.

www.spyderclub.com works just fine....it is quite active with lots of good links...try http://users.tellurian.net/robert/spyder/index.htm

Also, if you can't get spyderclub working you may need to "allow popups"...or something similar.

Just click the link to spyderclub from the main forum page

I don't know of any original porsche spyder site. Probably too few cars.

Any way for your research try:_

I am doing some research for a future project and while I know a lot about the differences in the 356, I know almost nothing about the 550. I will try to get some books.

The differences in the windshields throws me off to start with, because I see people using the speedster style windshield. Is this for convenience of purchasing or is it better in some way?

Also the air-inlets on the front of the engine cover are on some of the cars, but not others. I'm wondering if this is a certain year of preference???
