1961 T5 Karmann Hardtop (Notchback coupe) Great Winter Project!Dry Southern California car stored indoors since 1980.Solid SoCal body needing mainly mechanical restoration. It’s all here. It’s all together. Should be a relatively easy task to get it running. Sure to be an attention getter at any Porsche meet up. The T5 Karmann coupes were cabriolet bodies with hardtops brazed in place by the factory. Many many have been converted to open cars, making this indeed a rare find. (The later T6 cars had integral hardtops and body and so are a very different bodies).Originally Aetna blue with gray interior this car comes from a very long term female owner who purchased the car at the tender age of 17 at the behest of a boyfriend. She managed to hold onto the car all those years through thick and thin, poverty and prosperity, until age over took dreams of driving it once again. The Details;Slight kink in left hood hinge area. Right side is fine.Battery box floor needs patching due to battery acid spills over the years. Engine is a period correct Super which was acquired from a marque SoCal 356 engine builder.
