About this car

This 1960 Porsche 356 B Roadster was completed on 21 November 1960 and carries the 1600cc air-cooled flat-four, in the T5 body style that introduced the 356 B. It left the factory in Ivory with a red leatherette interior, with reclining seats, an ashtray and Continental tyres as options.

It was supplied new in California through Circle Motors in Long Beach and spent much of its life there. One owner, James Babcock, bought it in 1967 and kept it until 2013, when it passed to his nephew. In 1972 he had it resprayed silver and retrimmed in black, and it keeps that colour scheme today. The car has since been imported to the UK.

The page describes it as matching numbers, and the paperwork covers the ownership history from the 1960s onwards. It includes invoices, a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and the Driver's Manual. The original tool kit and jack are still with the car. No mileage is stated.
