Found this ultra cool '51 356 aluminium coupe. The 356 is one of my all time fav. cars.

Check out the front wheel skirts! Those front wheel are deep set already so they could make them a little bulged and get away with it. I wonder what it's Cd would have been?

I like how many old racing cars have mods that look like ours. Screws showing, add on look. Makes me proud to be a modder.
