Porsche 356 “Pre-A” (1948–1955)
The original 356, often called the “Pre-A”, debuted in 1948 and was Porsche’s first production car. Early examples were hand-built in Gmünd, Austria, with lightweight aluminum bodies—fewer than 50 of these cars were produced and are now among the most collectible Porsches in existence. In 1950, production moved to Zuffenhausen, Germany, where the bodies were now made of steel, allowing for greater scale and consistency.
These early cars featured a split or bent windshield, minimalist design, and power from Volkswagen-derived flat-four engines, initially producing around 40 horsepower. Over time, engine displacement and output increased, with later Pre-A models reaching up to 70 hp in the 1500 Super. While the Pre-A lacks many of the refinements of later models, its purity and simplicity give it a raw, elemental charm that appeals to purists and collectors alike.
