Porsche 356 B 1600

The vehicle in detail

When he died, the car was sold to a Swiss man who never did anything to it except drive it. He came back to Switzerland with the Porsche and because he wanted to build a house and start a family, he sold the car. So I became the third owner.

I completely rebuilt the engine with an SC crankshaft, Carillo connecting rods and JE pistons, so the car now has around 90 to 95 hp instead of the original 75. The gearbox was also completely rebuilt and because I drove it in a lot of vintage car rallies, I installed CSP disc brakes at the front. The original drum brakes are still there and will be included. 35,500 km since the engine was restored.

A modern oil filter was also installed with a thermostat that diverted the oil to the two front coolers when the oil was over 80°.

The car is still in original condition, but with a few signs of wear over its 61 years of life. Therefore, we had to repaint the driver's door and the four fenders.

It drives perfectly; new exhaust pipes were installed from the cylinders down to the stainless steel exhaust.

A very rare car with a well-known history in a rare original condition.
