Name:  Todd Hyatt



My car:

1957 356A T1, Definitely an Outlaw (build date 9/7/1957).  I pulled it out of a garage in 2020 where it had been sitting for 43 years under a pile of boxes, junk, and engine in the front seat.  Engine has been sent out to California with Walt at Competition Engineering (at the direction of LN Engineering).

Tip-off that a 356 was the car for me:

In 1982 I was 17 and saw a movie called King of the Mountain.  Harry Hamlin has a 356 Cab in the movie and that's when I said I wanted one. 38 years later I got my 356.

My age when I acquired my first 356:

One day after my 55th birthday (happy birthday to me).

Engine type:

1963 1600 S (type 616/12) with a big bore kit.
