Vehicle Description
This 1957 Porsche 356A coupe, acquired by the current owner in
1985, represents a driver quality car with notable features and a
history of maintenance. Completed on August 31, 1956, it boasts a
vibrant red exterior paired with black and red upholstery. Powered
by a replacement 1.6 liter flat four engine mated to a four speed
manual transaxle, it offers a classic driving experience. The car
comes equipped with oatmeal square weave carpets, 15? steel wheels,
beehive taillights, and a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio. Though the
exterior received a repaint in its current shade of red in 2017 and
exhibits some imperfections typical of its age, including
intermittent turn signal operation, it retains its charming vintage
appeal. Inside, the cockpit features re trimmed low back bucket
seats, black upholstery extending to the dashpad and door panels,
and a wooden Porsche crest shift knob. The ivory finished steering
wheel fronts a body color dashboard housing green letter VDO
instrumentation, including a 120-mph speedometer and an inoperable
tachometer. While the odometer shows 74k miles, the total mileage
is unknown. With recent maintenance including engine resealing and
transaxle servicing in preparation for sale, this Porsche 356A,
accompanied by a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, offers an
enticing opportunity for enthusiasts seeking a well loved classic
driving experience.
