Porsche 356 C

Porsche 356 C

Coupé, 1964

Highlights

  • US supplied with factory sunroof
  • Upgraded 1,720 cc engine
  • Very original bodywork

When only a really good 356 will do……..

This pretty 356 C coupe is one of the finest examples we’ve ever seen. Thoroughly inspected by Williams Crawford’s master restorer and 356 expert, Graham Kidd, it earned high praise – not something we hear too often.

This is a classic Porsche you can use and enjoy with great satisfaction and pride.

It scores highly for its overall condition, presentation, and driveability. The remarkably original bodywork has been beautifully repainted in its original shade of Champagne yellow, with original brightwork and interior. The upgraded original engine, along with the factory sunroof and disc brakes, combine to create a remarkably usable and rewarding 356.

The vehicle in detail

Supplied new in early 1964 by Competition Cars of Culver City, the official Porsche importer for Los Angeles, California. It was later part of a private collection in Japan before arriving in the UK, where it was offered at auction.

It caught the eye of marque specialist Andy Prill in 2002, who was especially impressed by its remarkable originality. When it was stripped to bare metal for a paint refresh in its original Champagne yellow jacket, he noted no corrosion, no accident damage, and no previous restoration work. In 2003 it was passed to Porsche specialist Robert Gant of Gantspeed Engineering, who carried out a transmission rebuild.

New owners in late 2003, 2011 and 2013 continued their relationship with Gantspeed, relying on them for the 356’s maintenance and servicing, all, as reflected in a detailed folder packed with invoices, pointing to fastidious care without compromise.

Of particular benefit is the 2007 rebuild of the air cooled 4-cylinder, uprated to 1,720 cc, delivering increased power and torque, better response, and a far more engaging drive.

Currently UK registered, we can arrange Nationwide delivery and Worldwide export. Independent inspections welcome. Live video walkarounds available.

Very few 60+ years old vehicles can offer such all-round quality. This one is the complete package – and then some.
