According to the Fahrzeugkarte, this Porsche 356 C was produced in October 1963, in “Sonderlackierung” Silbermetallic (6401) over a black leatherette interior, and ordered through the Italian importer Autogerma by its first owner, Immobiliare Italia spa of Milan. The Volkswagen Porsche dealership Pirola registered the car on December 4th, 1963, with license plate MI846889, for a value of 2,780,000 lire.
In October 1980, this Porsche 356 C was sold to Mrs. Bice Marcolongo of Guidizzolo, Mantova – she never registered and changed number plate. More recently, in December 2012, it was purchased by Luigi Compiano (the third owner). It was sold at the Duemila Ruote auction in November 2016 for 84,000 euro to a well-known Milanese collector, who never had the chance to begin the restoration.
In November 2024, we purchased the car and underwent a thorough restoration, overhauling all the mechanical, chassis, and electrical systems, trying to preserve its patina and originality as much as possible.
We enjoyed this project very much and we are pretty happy with the final result. A car for a 356 connoisseurs, it deserves to be seen, studied, driven in person.
