About this car

The 356 C was the last and most developed version of Porsche's first production car, with disc brakes on all four wheels and radial tyres. This 1965 coupe is described as a matching-numbers car, finished in Dolphin Grey over Wimbledon Green leather.

It was fully rebuilt by a respected European specialist before the previous owner bought it in 2014. The engine was bored out to 1700 cc during that work, and the owner reports it keeps pace with a 356 Carrera four-cam.

The owner used it lightly and maintained it carefully, with invoices on file to document the work. The page gives no price or mileage.
