1958 Carrera
GS Speedster
(11/22/01)

Here is
the very first style of Porsche alloys; which is a combination
of steel and aluminum. The outer rims are aluminum while the
center is steel. The arrows are pointing to the steel rivets
which are holding the two parts together.

The steel
rivets are a different color than the aluminum. All of the
wheels have just been sandblasted in preparation for paint.

Andy is
going through brakes.

Here's
a good shot of the drum brakes that were on all early 356's.

This is
the wheel bearing that was taken out of the front left side.
Normally they're in once piece, this one must have had a little
problem.
