Vehicle Description
Introduced in 1962, the T6 variant marked the final iteration of
the Porsche 356B. With structural and technical updates, Porsche
commissioned Karmann, known for the Notchback Coupe, to produce the
T6 Coupe bodywork. Acquired by the previous owner in 2021, this
1963 Porsche 356B 1600 Coupe subsequently underwent a meticulous
three-year restoration, including a bare-metal refinish in
factory-specified Heron Grey, a restored red interior, and a
rebuilt 1600cc engine upgraded to Super 90 specifications.
Accompanied by a host of service documentation, this well-presented
example is now being offered for sale at Allen Motors. The bodywork
has been stripped to bare metal and professionally refinished in
its factory-specified shade of Heron Grey (6207). It rides on 15"
slotted wheels with chrome Porsche-crested hubcaps and Hankook
tires from 2022. Other details include chrome trim, a driver's side
mirror, front window vents, a twin-grille decklid, and dual exhaust
outlets integrated within the rear bumperettes. Detailed images are
provided in the gallery along with photos of the restoration
process. The cabin is appointed with fresh red leatherette
upholstery, spanning the seats, door panels, dashboard cover, and
rear shelf. Matching carpets line the floors, and a body-colored
dashboard houses VDO instrumentation, complemented by a
wood-trimmed steering wheel and shifter knob. All gauges,
electronics, and accessories have been newly replaced as part of
the restoration, though the factory-correct radio is currently not
connected. Beneath the decklid, the air-cooled 1600cc flat-four
engine was completely rebuilt and upgraded to meet the more
powerful Super 90 specification along with boring the engine,
changing the camshaft, replacing the cylinder heads, and upgrading
the ignition system. As much as 90 HP is sent to the rear wheels
through a rebuilt 4-speed manual transmission. Service items have
surpassed $20k in total and accompanying invoices will be provided
to the new owner. Please contact us to schedule an appointment to
purchase this immaculate classic. Chrome Package, Fog Lights, Tool
