Details about this Porsche 356 SC Coupe (Chassis No.: 131701)
I purchased this Porsche in 1997 in San Francisco, California. The vehicle has been in my possession ever since and has been driven very rarely with its H license plate, later replaced by a 07 license plate. Only at classic car events and on short drives. Never in the rain. I have driven no more than 8,000 kph since then.
Condition Report: A comprehensive condition report—over 40 pages—including dozens of photos is available. The appraiser’s condition rating is 1.75 on a scale of 1–5.
This Porsche 356 SC is in flawless visual and technical condition and is equipped with a 07 license plate. With this transferable license plate, several classic cars—over 30 years old—could be driven.
Upon request, registration with an H-license plate is possible at any time.
