It was conceived during the Second World War by Ferry Porsche on the mechanical basis of the Volkswagen Beetle for the sake of economy and designed by Erwin Komenda, both expatriates in Gmünd, Austria. It is in this city that the first prototype and a first series of 356 is manufactured in 1948. Then, the entire production moved to Stuttgart in 1950. Named Pre-A, the first series was an immediate commercial success in the United States. In particular with the actors of Hollywood.
The Porsche 356 presented here was put on the road for the first time in September 1964.
