3.0 out of 5 stars Great photos of a classic!, March 26, 1999
By 
F. Dowdle (Sacramento, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Original Porsche 356 (Original Series) (Hardcover)
This book has very nice pictures of the 356. There are, however, few of the US specification Porsche. The book, being a British publication, has a lot of photos of cars produced for the UK market. There are some really beautiful cars to drool over in here!

4.0 out of 5 stars The basics of the 356 Porsche, July 7, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Original Porsche 356 (Original Series) (Hardcover)
This is a good basic volume for the first-time or prospective 356 owner. Filled with many color photos and just the right amount of charts, it explains the differences in years and models. It doesn't give enough detail to be the basis of a restoration, but it does makes a good read. A good supplement for any Porsche library.

4.0 out of 5 stars The book to own and to read for the real 356-fanatic, May 21, 2000
This review is from: Original Porsche 356 (Original Series) (Hardcover)
112 pages and lots of very nice photographs (about 200), all in colour. The text is nicely wrapped around the photographs. The photographs are all especially made for this book, so they are all new and unpublished before.

The book forms an attractive and detailed guide to the Porsche 356 and the illustrations, besides being very nice, provide a good and complete reference source. It's the book to own when you like the classic lines of the Porsche 356.
