This vehicle has a very high level of originality. The last 20 years in one hand: a collector from Schwäbisch Gmünd with a penchant for red vehicles.
The family is now separating with a heavy heart from the "lady", as she was affectionately known, because the owner passed away.

GermanyThis 356A impresses with its very good driving characteristics, which it has repeatedly demonstrated over the course of the last 20 years on its way to numerous visits to various meetings in the region. It was regularly serviced at Classic Power in Schorndorf, where it also received a dual-circuit brake system for safety reasons, which is entered in the vehicle registration and brakes excellently. The entire on-board electrical system was converted to 12V in the early years and ensures reliable starting behavior at all times as well as pleasantly bright light when driving at dusk and at night.
A vehicle passport from DEUVET (the national representation of FIVA) documents the history of the vehicle. The "old" vehicle registration documents the re-registration after the re-import on May 3rd, 1999 – during this time the vehicle was repainted in signal red. Measured paint thicknesses are in the range of an average of 500 mµ. All original parts were reused during the revision, no cheap reproduction parts were used.
Original body panels are stamped with the correct VIN suffix. A copy of the title from the state of Arizona, issued to the long-term owner of the vehicle, is also included.
The condition is still almost unchanged compared to 2001, as evidenced by numerous paper images from an expert opinion shortly after completion. Only superficial signs of wear and an attractively patinated interior are contemporary witnesses of regular use over the course of more than 20 years. Body sheet metal and add-on parts are in very good condition, even during the revision only a little hand had to be put on there. All of this is due to the excellent Arizona climate where the car has spent many stress free years in the sun.
The vehicle is delivered including a valid main inspection and a freshly performed service according to the service plan in a defect-free condition.
