122418 was completed on the 13th of November 1962 as a European
specification Super 90 T6 coupe in Ivory over Red, handled by
Autogerma in Bologna with deliver to Rome, Italy. Eventually the
356 made its way to sunny California, where it's said to have
resided for the last several years. Despite its California Cool
outlaw appearance, this S90 remains exceptionally original and
thoughtfully preserved, while both Porsche Kardex and Certificate
of Authenticity confirm 122418 is equipped with its factory fitted
engine (806395) and transmission (59959). Additionally, all etched
glass, corresponding stamped body panels (418), date coded wheels,
trim and upholstery appear remarkably original.
The exterior's maroon paintwork was applied many years ago, having
been polished to a smooth gloss finish over the years, it now
reveals the car's original factory applied ivory paint in some
areas. The overall looks is very appealing and nostalgic. Inside,
the cabin features original; European gauges, period Sears radio,
luggage straps and Italian army blankets over what appears to be
seasoned original carpeting and leather chairs with driver's
headrest. Correct Driver's Manual and sleeve reside in the
glovebox. Likewise, its engine bay is very original in appearance
with patinated decals and finishes with uprated Weber carburetors
breathing through correct type mesh filters. The front luggage
compartment is equipped with luggage liner, jack, spare tire
assembly and leather strap, while the undercarriage is
extraordinarily tidy and solid with correct S90 suspension
components.
The Ultimate Nostalgic Cruiser!
Drivability and power is impressive and the car benefits from a
Fall 2017 intermediate service and multi-point inspection.
Additionally, 5 new Michelin XZX tires were mounted on the
unrestored steel wheels, complimented by original S90 "nipple"
hubcaps and correct valve stems, caps and clips. This charming
Coupe offers many possibilities to its next caretaker and is
guaranteed to receive a tremendous amount of attention wherever
displayed. Now available for worldwide purchase and delivery from
our Houston, Texas showroom.
