Here we have a very nice 1960 356B / 1600 S Roadster originally built in December 30, 1959 at the Drauz Coachworks plant in Heillbronn, Germany as per the COA. The current owner performed a thorough restoration in 1999. The cabin floors and battery box floor were replaced at that time on an otherwise rust free, straight, solid body. A color change was made from the original Aetna Blue on red leatherette to Fjord green on full tan leather. A high quality tan leather interior, proper square-weave carpet and tan canvas top were expertly fitted. Numerous period performance upgrades were made including a 356 C disk brake conversion, 4 pt roll bar / harness bar (bolt in) with matching tan leather headrest, passenger and driver 5 pt harness sets, louvered Carrera style engine deck lid, sport twin pipe muffler, Carrera style rear valance, rear camber compensator and 12 volt conversion. These upgrades were made to enhance the sporting nature and general performance of the car. The engine is a good running non matching # type 616/12 with original Zenith 32NDIX carbs. Transmission is original matching number in very good working condition (best shifting / downshifting trans I have experienced). The C disk brake system performs it's job well. The chrome trim and brightwork throughout the car are in excellant condition. All glass is in excellant condition. Please call 864 640 3330 with any questions you may have.
