- 1960 Porsche 356B 1600 Roadster
- Ruby Red with tan interior
- Beautifully restored
- Supplied with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity
This exceptional Porsche 356 Roadster was built on 8 September 1960, making it an early example of the 356 B, which was introduced in late 1959 using the updated T5 body style. The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity shows that it was supplied in Ruby Red (6002) with Light Grey leatherette interior, plus optional extras including an ashtray, reclining seats and Continental tyres.
As with nearly all 356 roadsters, chassis number 88430 was exported to North America and remained there for more than 50 years – a certificate of title in the history file shows that it was in Ohio by the early 2000s. It’s thought to have remained within the same family for 30 years and was treated to a full relatively recent restoration. At some stage a correct period replacement engine was fitted, and it was given the UK registration of 724 XVF when it was imported in 2019.
Now presented in its original shade of Ruby Red with a beautifully finished tan interior, soft-top and tonneau cover, this Porsche 356 is in pristine condition and requires nothing mechanically. The panel gaps are very good, the chrome superb, and it perfectly evokes the stylish US West Coast scene of the early 1960s.
An extremely drivable collectible classic.
