Vehicle Detail
1956 Porsche 356 A 1600 Super. Now is your chance to own a 1956 Porsche 356A Super with a rare factory bench seat. This is a rust-free California car with a lot of potential. It is a mechanically sound daily driver with some cosmetic needs that will make a great project for someone to drive/restore. Includes original bumpers and an un-kinked hood. The vehicle is 12 volts and a blast to drive. Here’s what’s new/rebuilt within the last 500 miles: Freshly Rebuilt 912 Engine with an unstamped case. Freshly Rebuilt Transmission Rebuilt Braking System New Generator New Voltage Regulator New Clutch/Pressure Plate New Bosch blue coil New Air Cleaners New Plugs, Points, Condenser, Rotor, Cap Wires, etc. New Starter Rebuilt Solex Carburetors Brand New 195/65 R15 Tires Brand New Koni Shocks Brand New Exhaust/Muffler Professionally Rebuilt Gages Rebuilt Gas Tank/Fuel System Mostly New Rubber Seals New Door Striker Plates New Hirschmann Red Tip Antenna New Square Weave Oatmeal Carpet New Upholstery/Interior New Floors New Axel Boots New Battery New Headliner New Seatbelts New Hubcaps New ‘Concourse’ Radio Plus lots more misc. items!! Here’s what the car needs: Some of the bodywork could be done to a higher standard and the panel fit is not great. The paint could be better, although it is recent. The Floors were not done properly, however, there is no rust. Electrically the car is sound, however, the fuel/oil gage is not connected properly, the turn signals do not blink and the horn is not connected. A few holes have been drilled next to the ignition. Some scratches and one minor crunch behind the driver’s side wheel well (pictured). Otherwise this is a strong running car that will make a great project. Sold AS IS. International buyers welcome.
