Trust is Earned. 
    

   Our brake cylinders were developed from Factory blueprints over a decade ago, using modern materials to meet current testing specifications.

Winter Wheel Deal
    

    Here's a great winter time project—wheel replacement. There's plenty of time to take your bent and rusted original wheels off the car and bolt on a set of factory-fresh new ones. Our disc brake wheels are built using modern production techniques for corrosion resistance, strength and trueness.  

We've been getting updates from Trevor Gates, the winner of our We Can Save Them All contest.  While the prize will certainly help Trevor get his 356A back on the road, he's still got a long way to go to get there.  

When Porsche announced that they'd be making their fifth Rennsport Reunion this year at Laguna Seca, it was difficult to contain our excitement. Just a few hours drive away from our Reno, NV office, and probably the largest gathering of Porsche cars that the world has seen since the last time they had one of these four years ago. We packed our bags with a smile, and headed for Monterey! Here are a handful of photos of our favorite sights and a few of our friends who made the journey to race. 

   The 356 Registry holds an annual "Drive Your 356 Day" in September. This year it was on September 20th—but we'll go out on a limb and say it's a good day to drive any Porsche!
    If you're a Registry member out and about in your 356, don't forget to snap a picture! The 356 Registry is accepting one image and caption by email per member until September 28th. You can submit the picture to the Registry here. 
    We like this idea so much that we're going to expand it somewhat. If you've got your Porsche (any model) out that weekend, send a picture, caption and your postal address to us here at Stoddard. We'll pick the top five images and post them online—and we'll send the winners a free Stoddard Authentic Parts T-shirt.  

We were recently asked to evaluate Janis Joplin's Porsche 356SC (Note--the chassis and engine numbers indicate that the car is actually an SC) Cabriolet and we took some detail shots of the most famous 356 in existence. RM Sotheby's will be selling the car on December 10th as a part of its "Driven to Disruption" promotion.
