1964 Porsche 356

1964 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet ⢠VIN 159646 ⢠Engine No. 820421 - Matching ⢠Transmission No. 73529 - Matching ⢠1 of 833 produced in late 1963 ⢠Porsche - Certificate of Authenticity The 356SC is the top-of-the-line Cabriolet with the most power, the best transmission, and four-wheel disc brakes built from late 1963 to 1965. This 356SC Cabriolet is presented in its original color combination of Champagne Yellow (6405) over a Black interior. According to the Certificate of Authenticity, this 356SC retains its matching engine, transmission, decks, and doors. Current options include chrome wheels, 128 Hella fog lights, VDM Carrera wooden steering wheel with deluxe horn ring, Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, headrests, and CoCo mats. Occasionally, an exceptional 356 comes along, and European Collectibles has restored many Porsches over the years. Yet, this particular 356SC should have ideally remained in its original condition because it was a preservation class candidate. The owner at the time insisted on doing a comprehensive ground-up restoration. After the 356 was completely disassembled and then stripped to steel, we were astounded to discover that it had sustained no damage, had never undergone any rust repairs, and had never been disassembled. This 356 spent its existence in California and was in storage for three decades preceding its restoration. European Collectibles has meticulously disassembled this 356, thoroughly stripped the body to bare steel, and executed a complete concours restoration in its original color combination of Champagne Yellow/Black. All the components were re-chromed, new rubber seals were installed, a new German interior was installed, and the driveline was completely rebuilt, including the engine, transmission, brakes, and suspension. The paintwork is in in impeccable condition. The interior exhibits a VDM Carrera wooden steering wheel with a deluxe horn ring, VDO instrumentation, a Blaupunkt AM/FM radio, headrests, and CoCo mats.
