About the Porsche 356A:
The Porsche 356 is a sports car that was first produced by Austrian
company Porsche Konstruktionen GesmbH (1948-1949), and then by
German company Dr. Ing. h. c. F. Porsche GmbH (1950-1965). It was
Porsche's first production automobile. Earlier cars designed by the
Austrian company include Cisitalia Grand Prix race car, the
Volkswagen Beetle, and Auto Union Grand Prix cars.
The 356 is a lightweight and nimble-handling, rear-engine,
rear-wheel drive, two-door available both in hardtop coupe and open
configurations. Engineering innovations continued during the years
of manufacture, contributing to its motorsports success and
popularity. Production started in 1948 at Gm�nd, Austria, where
Porsche built approximately 50 cars. In 1950 the factory relocated
to Zuffenhausen, Germany, and general production of the 356
continued until April 1965, well after the replacement model 911
made its September 1964 debut. Of the 76,000 originally produced,
approximately half survive.
The original price in 1948 for the 356 coupe was US$3,750
(equivalent to $42,300 in 2021). The 356 cabriolet cost US$4,250
(equivalent to $47,900 in 2021).
In late 1955, with numerous small but significant changes, the 356
A was introduced. Its internal factory designation, "Type 1", gave
rise to its nickname "T1" among enthusiasts. In the US, 1,200 early
356s had been badged as the "Continental" and then a further 156
from autumn 1955 to January 1956 as an even rarer T1 "European"
variant after which it reverted to its numerical 356 designation.
In early 1957 a second revision of the 356 A was produced, known as
Type 2 (or T2). Production of the Speedster peaked at 1,171 cars in
1957 and then started to decline. The four-cam "Carrera" engine,
initially available only in the spyder race cars, became an
available option starting with the 356 A.
Within the last 25 years, replicas of the 356 A have become very
popular.
Most typical engine was a 1,582 cc (1.6 L; 96.5 cu in) 4-cylinder
boxer air-cooled naturally aspirated pushrod OHV 2 valves per
cylinder valvetrain, with dual downdraft Zenith carburetors,
producing 60 PS (59 hp; 44 kW) at 4,500 rpm and a maximum torque of
110 N�m (81 lb�ft; 11 kg�m) at 2,800 rpm
