The 356C, introduced in 1963, featured significant mechanical upgrades from it’s predecessor (the 356B), such as standard four-wheel disc brakes, 15-inch ventilated wheels, and suspension improvements for enhanced handling. Often regarded as the most refined of the 356 model, the 356C is considered to be the most desirable by drivers and enthusiasts alike. Around 1971, this example was acquired by Ms. Jean Smith, who kept all of her service records for the 356- leading the precedent for future owners to follow.
In addition to Ms. Smith’s meticulous mechanical upkeep, the car comes with a rich dossier of 4 binder’s worth of original documents and service records. The body remains straight with excellent panel gaps, and retains it’s paintwork from the early 2000s. The Porsche’s provenance is thoroughly documented, with service invoices since 1971 to today, including over $50,000.00 worth of service work since 2021. A complete transmission rebuild as well as a 12v conversion are some of the most recent services completed. This remarkably complete and honest 1964 Porsche 356C Cabriolet is not only a wonderful example of Porsche’s final 356 model, but also an ideal candidate for Porsche Club events, rallies, or spirited touring. 356 enthusiasts will find a difficult time sourcing another example as turn key and complete as this.
