Specifications
The story behind this collectible...
The Porsche 356. The car that started it all for Porsche.... Ferdinand Porsche Senior, had already designed the car in 1931 that would later serve as the Volkswagen Beetle. His son, Ferry Porsche, laid the foundation for the Porsche 356 in 1939. All technology initially came from Volkswagen, but this soon became quite different. Porsche made modifications to the engine, gearbox, interior and steering. Later, almost everything was addressed and made Porsche "own.
Thanks to World War II, the entire concept went on the bookshelf until 1948. That year, right away, the first prototypes were born. The new Porsches sold very well; the new owners were very impressed with the aerodynamics, handling and build quality. Nonetheless, the 356s could be used well in everyday traffic. Basic principles that Porsche pursues to this day.
Our model, the 356 B (T6) was born in Stuttgart in 1962. It was also delivered there, which makes it an original German-delivered Porsche, in its city of origin! This generation received a fuel filler cap in the right front fender and two cooling vents in the nose. In addition, the interior received a refresh and received a rear seat. Ours is in true concours condition and has conclusive documentation. In addition to all maintenance bills, appraisal reports, restoration report and associated bills, we also have a summary with the owners (including current owner; 3) and all miles driven.
In short, a Stuttgart Cool Classic that we (almost) never come across like this! Both rationally and emotionally a perfect candidate for the enthusiast!
