Vehicle Description
Just Discovered 1953 Porsche 356 1500 Pre-A Bent Window Coupe This
1953 Porsche 356 Pre-A Bent Window Coupe is an original unrestored
example out of 40 year ownership where it's been hidden away in
storage for decades. White with original blue leather interior. It
was originally Fashion Grey making for an excellent original color
combination. The engine is a correct but non-matching 1500 unit
from 1955. Offered with its Kardex. The car has rust but remains
intact and complete. It was built in November of 1953 and sold
through Hoffman in New York. This Pre-A coupe has been patiently
awaiting a well-deserved and worthy restoration. This car has never
been restored so you can be the first to do so. The legendary 356
was first brought to life in a small workshop in Gmnd, Austria in
1948. Increased demand led to production shifting in 1950 to
Stuttgart, where the now steel-bodied cars were assembled by
Karosserie Reutter. Initially built with a split windscreen, in
1952 the styling was refined with a more modern one-piece
bent-window. This hugely enticing restoration project offers a rare
opportunity to acquire a desirable Pre-A Coup? fresh from long-term
ownership. Chassis # 51335Engine # P 35276 Early Bent Window 356
