History:

The Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet is the final evolution of the 356. It was produced in 1964 and 1965, with approximately 1,200 examples built. It received disc brakes on all four wheels and the most powerful engine in the range, producing 95 horsepower. This evolution made the 356 the most enjoyable to drive on a daily basis and one of the rarest versions. 

This SC was delivered new on October 15, 1964, in the United States. The car was purchased in 2017 by our client from European Collectibles (California), a renowned 356 restorer and dealer. The car is now registered as a historic vehicle and presents in superb overall condition. 

The car is entirely matching numbers and comes with its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity.
