the 1.6L 4 cylinder engine producing 60 bhpThe 356 is a lightweight
and nimble-handling, rear-engine, rear-wheel drive, two-door
available both in hardtop coup? 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.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).Introducing our
lovely 356 A 1600 Coupe. A beautifully restored example finished in
the classic silver exterior with stylish black leather interior.
Our 356 A started her life back in the United States and was
brought back to Europe where she underwent a complete restoration
by her last owner, a Belgian racing driver. There is not a single
nut or bolt that has been left untouched. You can tell that she has
been lovingly restored in the past with great attention to detail.
Her quality is immaculate.The first time you lay eyes on her, you
will be captivated by her shiny metallic silver paint. And the
wonderful chrome capped wheels. She will stand out at every car
show, that is for sure. Inside you will find an equally well
restored interior, with luxurious black leather seats and black
carpets to complete the look and feel. Her interior is a great
place to spend many fun miles with your passenger from going on a
Sunday cruise or going out for dinner. Every ride will be a special
occasion.And the best part about our 356? The way she drives of
course. She wouldn't be a true Porsche if she didn't drive great.
She is powered by her wonderful matching 1.6L air cooled 4 cylinder
engine which has plenty of power to keep up with modern traffic.
Her gearbox is a smooth shifting example that adds to the great
driving experience. And the cherry on top has to be her sports
exhaust system.Our 356 truly is a well restored example that will
put a smile on your face every time you turn the key. And when you
park her up in the evening, you will have that wonderful exterior
to look at. Don't miss your chance to drive through summer in this
unique example. Get in touch to schedule a test drive. But we will
warn you that you will fall in love...
