Did I miss anyone?

Does my 993 count? It kind of looks like a bug.

"On 10 March 1953, the split rear window was replaced with a one-piece rear window."

We had I think a 68 that was converted into a dune buggy to run around in the desert in New Mexico. Wasn’t street legal so don’t know if that counts.

You're right. My memory is defective on this point. Was it a '53 or am I remembering a split rear window when there was none? I have no evidence either way.

That's okay, Llarry, if you remember the split rear window then maybe you just got the year wrong. Or maybe it was your grandfather who forgot the year and told you it was a '56 in error (old people do that). Either way that split rear window was cool.

My Dads first car was also a bug. HS class of 69. He also really loved that car.
