Porsche 356 A 1600

Het voertuig in detail

The paintwork benefits from a bare metal respray in the original color of Meissen Blue by a recognized marque specialist, with great gaps, and panel fit. Original stamped body panels include the front and rear decklid both stamped “384”, and the fuel tank is date-coded 59. Other authentic details include original turn signal housings, taillight housings, shine-up license plate light, and a period-correct red-tip Hirschmann antenna with U.S overriders bumpers. The interior is well-preserved with VDO instrumentation, a factory VDM steering wheel with deluxe horn ring, and period-correct high-fidelity radio. The manual sunroof has the original Golde turn handle. The silver painted 4.5” x 15” wheels with Baby Moon hubcaps are mounted to Vredestein Sprint Classic 165 15 tires (2024). The undercarriage is solid and rust-free, and the floor pans were stripped to bare metal and fully detailed to show-level condition.

European Collectibles sold this 356A to its current owner in 2015 who has continued to maintain it since. In 2020, Patrick Motorsports serviced the 356, replacing sump plate gaskets, valve cover gaskets, the fuel filter, and adjusting the front wheel bearings. In 2024, the original Zenith carburetors were professionally rebuilt by 356 Carb Rescue. Most recently, this 356 was fully detailed, and tuned, by European Collectibles.
