What do you think of this 356 Cab?
You dont find many spare wheels like this anymore. All the Porsche enthusiasts have been hoarding this stuff for years. The Porsche Carrera 2 used a special 4 cam performance engine. It seems the Porsche Factory created special wheels for this model with thicker wheel centers to match. It even has the correct original parts sticker and stampings that corresponds to the Porsche Factory Service Bulletin.
