For 1960, after five years of 356 A production, Porsche announced another major revision – enough to warrant a change in the name to 356 B. Raised bumpers and headlamps ensured the new car met increasingly stringent safety standards in the US. The hood handle’s size was increased for ease of use while front vent windows increased passenger comfort. Redesigned rear seats and a new steering wheel refreshed interior styling.
Performance-wise, the company introduced larger brakes and updated motors. The traditional pushrod flat-4 was now offered in three outputs: the standard with 60hp, a “Super” with 75hp, and the range-topping “Super 90” with 90hp. While exceptionally well-heeled buyers could specify the DOHC flat-4 racing motor in the Carrera 2, enthusiasts who desired a quick and reliable sports car were better served with one of the “Super” models. The same holds true today, which is why 356 Supers are well-regarded by enthusiasts and investors alike.
The exquisite 1963 Porsche 356 B T6 1600 Super Coupe featured here is finished in gorgeous Ruby Red over Beige leather interior. This incredible Porsche comes accompanied with extensive original documentation including its owner's manual, service booklet, window sticker, sales receipts, and California black plates along with service records and judging/inspection sheets. Additionally, the previous owner retained the car's date-code-correct wheels and Zenith carburetors. This sensational motorcar has been meticulously maintained from new, beautifully restored, and is now ready for its next caretaker. We are proud to offer what we believe to be one of the very best 356 Super coupes on the market today. I personally believe the investment potential of this iconic motorcar will grow beyond your imagination. Offered to the most particular investor, collector, or enthusiast who desires to own one of the very best at an investment price!
