Porsche 356 Update: Bring Cash

Update:I emailed the owner of this Porsche 356 for sale in Roanoke to inquire about the price. Come to find out it's a dealer. He says he'd "like to get as much as possible for the car." That's funny. I was thinking the exact opposite. He says he's going to put the car on ebay for a while to see what the market will bear and then will email back with the price. What do you think the ebay barometer will read?

Oct. 18: Barn finds like this '62 Porsche 356 B for sale in Roanoke, Va., don't happen in the east. If fact, these cars never even seem to come up for sale outside of California. This one still has it's California plates. It's super original and complete. It needs a total restoration. And it's probably priced well beyond our means. The seller has it listed for $1, which, I guess, is his way of saying if you have to ask....
Silver with a red interior is the best-looking color for a 356.This one is in surprising nice shape. It was fairly rare for these cars avoid being messed with in one way or another before ending their first lives in the proverbial barn. Owner says it was a one-owner California car until 2008. No word on how it wound up in Roanoke.
Owner says the engine (a 1600 "S") is in running condition, though we find that hard to believe (Who puts a running 356 to pasture?) He says the oil pressure is good and the engine turns over. The carb throttle plates are seized up, however, from the long slumber.
In our opinion, the 356 is the most beautiful Porsche of all. If we could afford to, we would buy this one and restore it when we could afford to. In the meantime, we'd be happy just looking at it. More photos here.
