SUMMARY
SOLD for an undisclosed amount. An immaculate, UK-supplied 356B that counts its Concours Trophies in dozens.
DESCRIPTION
- UK-supplied in right-hand drive by Jack Barclay to a Mr Marcou of Eaton Square SW1 in 1962
- 287 EXD was originally produced as a T6 Super 90 finished in Slate Grey with Red upholstery
- During manufacture, the engine was changed (customer request) to a standard 1600
- Fabulously detailed history including every owner from new to now
- Owned by Dennis Smith from 1984 to 2017 winning countless Concours trophies
- Over ú37,000 between 1992 and 1999 for restoration work and an engine rebuild (Gantspeed)
- Now finished in a gleaming coat of Signal Red with a very smart black interior
- Very rare today with such a complete timeline and interesting provenance, this charming early sixties Porsche drives exceptionally well and would be a worthy addition to any collection
Widely acknowledged as Porsche's first venture into motor manufacturing, the 356 was a lightweight and nimble rear-engined, rear-wheel-drive, two-door sporting car available in hardtop coupe and open configurations. Over a 15-year production period, the 356 evolved from an aluminium bodied coupe with an 1,100cc air-cooled flat-four engine to a 2,000cc four-cam Carrera engine producing 130 bhp. The 356
