Beschreibung

Completed on 29th July 1960, this Porsche 356B Super 90 Coupe is a highly desirable matching-numbers example of one of the most sought-after variants in the 356 lineage. Finished from new in Ruby Red (6002) with a Leatherette and Cord interior, it was supplied through Porsche dealer Maheg in Munich and specified with a number of attractive factory options, including chrome wheels, twin fog lamps and an electric timer. The accompanying Porsche Certificate of Authenticity confirms the car retains its original Super 90 engine, number 801082, together with its original transmission, number 39135.

The Super 90 occupied a unique position within the Porsche range, offering significantly greater performance than the standard 356 whilst retaining the reliability and usability that helped establish the marque’s reputation worldwide. Consequently, surviving matching-numbers examples have become increasingly coveted by collectors and enthusiasts alike.

The history file accompanying this car provides a fascinating insight into its life over more than six decades. Particularly charming is a collection of original California registration documents dating from the early 1970s, which place the Porsche in the ownership of Robert W. Davis of Pasadena, California. These surviving registrations trace the car’s life in Southern California between 1972 and 1978, offering an unusually detailed snapshot of its American ownership.

Amongst the paperwork is an original California Highway Patrol traffic citation issued whilst the Porsche was in Californian ownership. Whilst perhaps not the sort of document usually found within a history file, it provides a delightful and highly authentic connection to the car’s past. It is a reminder that this Super 90 was not preserved as a static exhibit but was driven and enjoyed on the roads for which it was built.

Today, the car is offered with its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and a substantial accompanying history file, supporting both its provenance and originality. Finished in one of the most attractive period colour combinations and retaining its matching numbers engine and gearbox, it represents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptionally well-documented example of one of Porsche’s most significant early sports cars.
