Porsche 356 B 1600 Super BT5
Specifications
The story behind this collectible...
An aerodynamic design that made the sky blush, a handling that hugged the road like an old friend, and a build quality that made even a tank fade away, the 356 knew how to impress everyone. It was a car for every day, Porsche's core value, designed for lovers of superior engineering in its sexiest form. Porsche quickly refined the technology of the 356 for success in racing, driven by the motto: "Win on Sunday, sell on Monday." And they did so well.
This example originally delivered in Switzerland, was completely restored in the Netherlands between 1988 and 1994. Since then the current owner has had her for 30 years and she has always been treated with care and kept in excellent condition. Because the 1960 Porsche 356B 1600 Super no longer competed smoothly with modern traffic, it was modified to stay true to its motto and remain an everyday car with superior engineering. A completely overhauled 4-cylinder 1600 engine with 90 HP was installed in 2012, followed by a gearbox overhaul in 2017. Recently, the roof, shock absorbers (Koni) and front brake discs were renewed.
These modifications, combined with excellent maintenance, have transformed the 356 Cabriolet into one of the best-driving examples. With its light ivory paint and black leather interior, it exudes a timeless classic elegance, perfectly balanced with modern performance. A specialist has inspected the car and declared that this 356 is in top condition-a rarity. With every mile you can feel the love and craftsmanship that went into this car. Owned by an enthusiast for 30 years with the perfect amount of patina. She is a true example of everything the brand stands for.
