Restored 356 Pre-A in matching Colors, Mille Miglia Eligible, participated in the Mille Miglia twice, in 2023 and 2024, reaching the finish on both occasions. Kardex, Porsche birth certificate, Reuter delivery certificate, FIVA Pass, ACI Fiche, and Mille Miglia Eligible documentation are available. Perhaps the first 356 with a sunroof.
Delivered to Belgium in 1952 to dealer D‘Ieteren with a Type 506 1,300 cm³ engine (in individual parts for customs reasons). The sunroof was presumably installed by D‘Ieteren in Belgium before the initial delivery. At the time, D´Ieteren was the Belgian importer for Porsche and a major coachbuilder; later, they also built the Covertible D(ieteren) and Roadster for Porsche.
First delivered to Comtesse Cornet De Ways-Ruart on 20 November 1952 (archival photographs are available). According to the Kardex, the car underwent an extensive goodwill case in 1953/1954. The stamped engine number is the number of a replacement engine, meaning that the car presumably received the new engine still installed today from the factory at that time.
The car is painted in its original color (Fish Silver) and has carpet + leather in the original color.
A mechanical odometer and trip computer are installed and can be removed with just a few simple steps.
After restoration, the car was kept in a special climate-controlled garage.
