Equipment includes period-correct Zenith dual carburetors, drum brakes at all four corners, VDO gauges, chrome headlight rings, body-color bumpers with chrome overriders, a wood-rim three-spoke steering wheel, and classic Moon-style chrome hubcaps with Porsche crest wrapped in Kumho tires on 15-inch steel wheels.

This 356B is accompanied by $21, 637. 67 in documented service receipts, with major work completed in May 2020. That service included a complete transmission rebuild with a new case and synchros, conversion to period-correct Zenith carburetors with rebuilt throttle bodies, and extensive engine work including a front cover installation. Additional maintenance includes a full brake service, resealed left axle tube, replacement fuel tank and sending unit, new Kumho Power Star tires, a 6-volt battery replacement, and refreshed door and window seals. The twin engine-lid grilles on later 356B models weren't just a styling update - they were added to improve cooling for the higher-output 1600 engines, making these cars better suited for sustained highway driving without compromising reliability. Do not miss this fantastic opportunity to own a cornerstone of Porsche history that is mechanically sound. For $74, 500
