Seller's comments about 1960' Porsche 356 B
- Original "Matching-Number" engine
- Factory delivered in color Etna blue
- Restored
- One of 1, 469 produced cars in 1960
Vehicle History:
This Porsche 356 B Roadster was completed at the Stuttgart factory on July 22, 1960. It is one of only 1, 469 roadsters produced in the same year. The car was manufactured for the Competition Motors dealership in Hollywood, California, USA. In 1961, the car was registered to its first owner in California. In 1967 Westey J. Morgan bought this roadster and kept it for over 40 years. In 2007 the car was exported to the Netherlands, where it was purchased by its current owner. At that time, the 356 was painted in classic silver with red leather interior. After requesting a Porsche certificate in 2009 to determine the car's "matching numbers," it came as a surprise that the Porsche had left the factory in the color etna blue.
Since the paint structure was no longer the best, the new owner decided to have the car extensively overhauled and, along with it, repainted back to the original, rare and sought-after color. The work was carried out by a Porsche specialist and there are many photos of the work at hand. The soft top is made of black Sonnenland fabric.
