Seller's comments about 1961' Porsche 356
We are proud to offer this fantastic example of the Porsche 356 T5 B Coupe.
The owner had decided that he would like to continue his 356 ownership but with an open car, so this example has become surplus to requirements.
PRS has looked after the car for the current owner’s entire 9 year ownership.
There has been no expense spared and many improvements in that time.
All invoices are available for viewing and the car really does benefit from a complete engine rebuild with next to zero miles on the clock since.
Originally supplied to the USA. There is no records prior to an owner in New York 1979.
The car was exported to Milan Italy in 1988
In 1991 the car was restored to ‘vintage car standards’ and approved by the Italian vintage cars sporting commission.
1994 saw a new owner and in 1999 the car was exported to Monaco.
It was 2002 when the car arrived in the UK and renowned Porsche specialist Francis Tuthill looked after the car until the current owner purchased it in 2011.
There is a large file of paper to support the above. I currently have this on PDF files and jpegs.
It really is just a car to get in and enjoy.
I have currently just applied for the cardex. The engine number does check out as matching and I will double check this as soon as possible to confirm?
As mentioned before the car has no expense spared when maintained and as such it drives exactly like a 356 should and is an absolute joy.
The paint is old and there are some age related marks as would be expected but as you can see from the photographs everything is very respectable
The seats were replaced only a few years ago for the correct 356 seats and as such the whole interior really is a pleasant place to be. The wood-rim Les Leston steering wheel adds to the overall look and feel of the car, or an original wheel can be fitted if you prefer?…Everything works as it should including the radio!
Just turn the key and go!!
The car is stored with us at PRS
All enquires, test drives and inspections are welcome.
Price is £75, 500 ono
