  1. Many, many years ago I had several 356's, they had dings, wear and service issues. Over time, I sold off both of my 356's, and later on the 912 and 914 for the some of the reasons you mention...they weren't worth much and prices reflected the damage done by the tin worms. At the time dealers were the only source of parts and some were no longer available such as floor pans, rocker panels, jack points, battery boxes, and other chassis parts. Many of us obsessed over the same issues of value and in many cases people scapped the bodies while the motors and trans were sold off. Fast forward, those same Porsches have reached nose bleed prices even for mere rusted hulks. I purchased a 2000 996 cab that came my way a few years ago when prices were similar to used Toyotas. This time the bodies of these Porsches remain solid while the motor is questionable. During the last few years we have seen a lot of new products and services from Raby, LN Engineering, Hartech, Skip with his UAOS and many others who have spent time and money that not only repair but improve these motors. As such, I am going to enjoy repairing and playing with it as the values seem to be holding and in some cases increase, and therefore I would choose either two, three, four and five and avoid one and six.
