Description
Our Porsche 356 Pre-A from 1955:
The current owner purchased the car in 2023 through us. It was previously the property of the well-known Porsche 356 competitor Jean François Penilard, who completely restored the car and drove it in numerous races in the 1960s and 1950s, including Le Mans Classic and the Tour Auto, where it achieved numerous podium finishes.
The current owner also competed in several Tour Auto events, finishing on the podium each time, as well as at Le Mans Classic.
The car received a new engine two races ago, fitted by French specialist Olivier Auvray (AMS). The car is in a “racing” configuration to FIA GTS specifications, equipped with a bespoke long gearbox for Le Mans and comes with a short gearbox and transmissions as well as a set of rims. It is now being sold ready to race, with up-to-date PTH and eligible for major historic events such as the Tour Auto and Le Mans Classic. This car is the ultimate weapon for winning the performance index.
