217155 was completed on February 13, 1964 in Light Ivory over Black
Leatherette upholstery, and sold new through Brumos, Jacksonville
to its first owner Mr. Robert Trow of Fort Lauderale, Florida - as
confirmed by Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and Porsche
Kardex. The "C" series is considered the most refined model in the
entire 356 class, and this particular car sports the prized "Super
C" option which provides greater horsepower, suspension and braking
capabilities over earlier standard models. Other optional equipment
fitted to this 356 included ventilated chrome wheels, exterior
mirror and Dunlop tires. A Blaupunkt Radio with Antenna and
loudspeakers were likely installed by the selling dealer.
This particular SC comes from longtime California residency, having
been regularly enjoyed and maintained as needed, but never fully
restored. Drivability and power is dialed in for immediate turn-key
motoring, with recent servicing records accompanying. The
exterior's paintwork has mellowed beautifully, having been applied
many years ago, ideal for an excellent driver/vintage touring
candidate absolutely as-is. Further complimenting the Porsche's
touring prowess is a stunningly dressed cabin. Fresh, comfortable
and well-trimmed in matching leather, vinyl and square-weave
carpeting, cross-country tours could easily be conquered and
enjoyed in this outstanding Porsche. Period style lap belts provide
safety, while the audio has been expertly restored by
Vintageblau.
The front compartment contains a matching spare wheel assembly with
leather tire strap, luggage liner and tool roll. The rear displays
its original numbers-matching "Super" motor in fantastic preserved
condition with original equipment and appearances. It's wide
powerband and peppy acceleration provides an exciting drive!
Overall, the 356 leaves a solid impression of a very usable and
reliable weekend cruiser or everyday driver with the much desired
uprated 95hp power plant. This charming SC Coupe offers many
possibilities to its next caretaker and is now available for
worldwide purchase and delivery from our Houston, Texas
showroom.
