This is one of the most iconic silhouettes ever produced, and this
1962 Porsche 356B represents it all in the best ways. With a mix of
preservation and investments to keep it looking correct, this coupe
captures the true essence of the original Porsche. We even have the
Certificate of Authenticity that tells us this has its
numbers-matching motor.
While the Porsche 356 was made to be one of the best cars for
drivers out there, the introduction of the B-Series made it a
better car to drive. Improved cooling, improved visibility, and
improved styling are all that help make it stand out within its own
model line. And the overall feeling that you get from this one is
that you are really supposed to enjoy it to the fullest. This
Certificate of Authenticity tells us that this is wearing its
correct Ruby Red. The finish does a great job of having a good
gloss that can show off the natural and aerodynamic body lines, and
at the same time, it's a true driver-quality finish that proves
your classic Porsche was not bought purely for garage art (and that
gets respect from enthusiasts.) And you'll appreciate how this
shows off the essence of a Porsche with well-fitting panels and
just the right amount of brightwork. It's a pure classic, right
down to the Porsche family crest in the polished wheel covers.
The factory-correct black interior provides a timeless color combo.
These original Porsches established the company's reputation for a
driver's machine, and you get that feeling from the moment you get
inside. The classic three-spoke sports steering wheel has an
excellent grip. It gives you a clear view of the full luminescent
gauge panel with the important tach prominently in the center - a
tradition continued on Porsches today. The exterior-matching dash
is simple and elegant. As you look around, it feels like this is a
time capsule. The perforated leatherette upholstery is smooth and
clean. The trim is bright. And you'll even appreciate the little
things, like the working dome light and Blaupunkt AM/FM radio.
The 1600cc motor has a very cool look to it. This one keeps its
pure and classic style right down to the correct decals, six-volt
system, and Zenith carburetors. And while this is a very vintage
setup that's cool to display, it also confidently fires up and runs
with the feeling of proper care. After all, this is the kind of
classic that begs to be driven. So you'll love the control of the
four-speed manual transmission and the direct driver interaction
that is uniquely the 356.
The sale comes complete with service manuals, additional
literature, and the Certificate of Authenticity. This is the
Porsche legend that is made for getting out there and having real
classic car fun. Call today!!!
