Porsche 356 SC

The vehicle in detail

Introduced as the ultimate evolution of Porsche’s first production model, the 356 SC represented the most developed iteration of the four-cylinder 356 series. Nearly 15 years of continuous refinement had transformed the original lightweight sports car into a highly polished machine prized for its balance, durability, and driver engagement.

The SC featured the updated T6 bodywork with a squared-off hood, external fuel-filler door on the right front fender, and standard four-wheel disc brakes. Power came from the most potent pushrod engine offered in a production 356, rated at 95 hp, delivering improved performance without compromising the model’s inherent simplicity.

This 1964 Porsche 356 SC is a Karmann-built coupe. Finished in silver over a black leatherette interior, it is equipped with a tinted windshield and ventilated chrome wheels, and a period Nardi wood-rimmed steering wheel has been added. Delivered new through Competition Motors in Culver City, California, this 356 SC has been part of The Tommy Trabue Collection since circa 1980, and was refinished from its original Dolphin Grey (6410) to silver at some point in the past.

Accompanied by a spare tire, car cover, and a logbook documenting mileage and maintenance notes, this final-series 356 SC presents as a well-kept example, well suited for enjoyable driving and regular use.
