The vehicle in detail

The paintwork is older and has patina, retaining its original components, including the turn signal housings, lenses, and brightwork. The glass is predominantly original, with original markings. The soft top frame has been reupholstered with a new canvas top, pad, and headliner, along with a zip-out rear window and a new boot cover. The interior includes a VDM steering wheel, VDO instrumentation, a clock, a radio delete plate, and an ashtray. New German square-weave carpets have been installed recently. Chrome ventilated 4.5” x 15” wheels are fitted with 165 HR15 tires. The undercarriage is in excellent overall condition, with no rust, and is detailed along with the suspension.

Mechanically, powered by the matching 1600cc flat-four engine (Type 616/15), producing 75 horsepower, paired with the matching manual 4-speed transmission (Type 741) and four-wheel disc brakes. Recent service includes replacement of engine oil, oil filter, and gear oil, along with distributor service and valve adjustment. This is a late-production, matching-number 356C Cabriolet with patina, finished in an attractive color combination, and is a complete turn-key driver with the Porsche Kardex, spare wheel, and jack.
