This is a 1962 Porsche 356B Super 90 Cabriolet in the T6 twin-grille form. The Super 90 was the more powerful of the 1.6-litre engines offered in the 356B. The dealer believes fewer than 700 Super 90 Cabriolets were built in 1962.
It is a left-hand-drive car, finished in silver metallic with a red leather interior and a mid-red soft top. Period options include a headrest, a radio and a luggage rack on the engine lid. A copy of the factory Kardex on file gives a completion date of 18 December 1962 and shows the car was sold new through the Fleischhauer dealership in Cologne.
A previous owner in the Netherlands recently repainted and retrimmed it. The engine is being rebuilt, with mechanical work also under way at the dealer, so the car is not yet running. It can be viewed by appointment. Price, mileage and registration are not given.

The maker’s official figures for this model, not measurements of this car (Porsche factory data for the 356 B 1600 Super 90 (type 616/7, 1582cc, 90 PS DIN). Weight, top speed and 0-60 were left blank because I couldn't confirm the exact factory figures for the 1962 Cabriolet.).
