Comentários do vendedor sobre 1956' Porsche 356
We are proud to offer for sale on behalf of our customer, a very rare Right-hand drive example of the ever popular T1 ‘A’ Coupe.
It was the 101st Porsche sold by AFN (Fraser Nash) through dealer Moortown Motors According to records it was the first RHD car supplied with Zenith carburettors Porsche completion date was 28th November 1955 and the car was delivered 22nd February 1956 to its first owner C.R.Cornish. Somewhere along the way it has had its engine swapped to 63282 a later engine of exactly the same spec and its gearbox has also been changed to a later type 644 tunnel box for improvement. The old records also show the car being an original Silver car but with a red interior. It now fashions black leather seats and retains its iconic Silver exterior.
Mechanically the car has been maintained regardless of cost and makes a 370 round mile trip to be serviced with no problems at all. The mechanicals have been worked on in a way to make the car reliable with twin piston master cylinder and a carb choke system set up. The body-work has acceptable door gaps, the engine lid and bonnet could be better. There is no rust but there is signs of old previous repairs, much as would be expected with any UK delivered car. In fact it was a pleasant surprise to look under the car not see a whole rake of poor workmanship. Inside the front boot floor is slightly distorted, there is no evidence of why? The more astute eye will also notice that the car has later type rear lights and not the more desirable twin bee-hive style which would have been originally fitted.
To sum up, the car is a very respectable pretty little driving car that would benefit from further work or just enjoy as is.
