Porsche 356 B 1600

For sale is a 1960 Porsche 356 B 1600 T5 Coupé in the elegant Ruby Red color scheme with a gray leather interior. The vehicle is in exceptionally good and extremely well-maintained condition and impresses with its high degree of originality.

Of particular note is the body, which has never been welded. In 1997, the vehicle’s exterior was completely repainted. In 1998, the engine underwent a complete overhaul, so the car is also in very good technical condition. Furthermore, this is a matching-numbers vehicle—the engine and chassis numbers match the original factory specifications, underscoring the authenticity and high collector’s value of this Porsche.

Another exceptional detail: even the doors, hood, trunk lid, and original wheels are original to this vehicle and bear matching serial numbers. The Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio, the original speaker cabinets, the onboard tool kit, and other equipment details also correspond to the vehicle’s original delivery condition and impressively round out this vehicle’s exceptional originality.

The original delivery location was San Francisco, where the vehicle was delivered through the Porsche dealer Reynold C. Johnson. The vehicle comes with the original service booklet and the owner’s manual. In addition, an exceptionally comprehensive documentation folder is included. This contains numerous records regarding replacement parts, maintenance and repair work, as well as the engine overhaul. In addition, the previous owners carefully documented every kilometer driven—impressive proof of the vehicle’s history and the loving care it has received over many years. The interior was also professionally restored in the 1990s. As part of this work, the chrome trim was refinished and is now in very attractive condition.
