Description
A private collector presents a rare opportunity to acquire a Porsche 356 AT1 in an exceptional GT (or original) configuration in its highly sought-after original Lago Green colour.
This 356 built for the US market in 03/ 1957 is eligible for historic events (Mille Miglia, Tour Auto); it was completely restored in Europe a few years ago to a very high standard of workmanship.
Chassis number: 59 011
Engine type: 616/ 1 – 1600
Engine number: 73 389 (1600 correct-type, non-matching from 1959, prepared, developing 85hp)
The 356 is currently GT-equipped, with a possible return to original specification depending on the wishes of its next owner.
GT equipment:
• 4 Tecnomagnésio wheels 5x15 mounted on Vredestein Sprint Classic
• Stainless steel central exhaust CSP Product
• Aluminium bumper trims
• Speedster bucket seats, full leather interior fitted by Jean Philippe DUVAL
• Nardi steering wheel
Or original equipment:
• 4 steel wheels 4. 5x15
• Original exhaust with two outlets
• Original leather/ fabric seats
• Original steering wheel
Its MOT was carried out in February 2026 and passed.
Expert report available.
The 356 will benefit from a full service by a well-known specialist (SLYMOTORS) prior to delivery, including engine oil change, spark plug replacement, tappet clearance adjustment, front shock absorber replacement, brake fluid, ignition and carburation adjustments, and lubrication of the running gear.
This rare first-series 356 is ready to hit the road; it can also be displayed in its living room or showroom or entered in fine historic events!!
Viewing and test drives by prior qualified appointment near Montpellier.
I may consider a trade-in for a Porsche of equivalent quality, never involved in an accident, complete history, with the balance to be defined depending on the model offered.
