Das Fahrzeug im Detail

The Speedster’s exterior displays an incredible level of patina and has only had one exterior repaint over the past 66 years. Original paint is present in the door jambs, under the hood, and under the rear deck lid. The body is incredibly straight, with no signs of rust. Original decks and doors, windshield frame, seats, rear bench seat, door panels, carpet, steering wheel, knobs, shifter knob, and VDO gauges.

Mechanically, this is one of the best-driving 356 Speedsters we have had over the years. The unrestored Porsche 356s drive like no other. The matching 1600cc Normal engine producing 60 horsepower runs phenomenally and the 4-speed manual (644) transmission shifts perfectly with a four-wheel hydraulic drum braking system.

Complete with a Reutter – Certificate of Production, Kardex, Certificate of Authenticity, Reutter Karosserie brochure, original California Black plates, California registration cards from 1969-1982, an original Type 356 A Driver’s Manual, tool kit, jack, red boot cover, and side curtains.
