According to the specifications sheet, this Porsche 356 B 1600 Roadster was delivered by the factory in June 1961. The original colour was slate grey (colour code 6001D) with a light grey artificial leather interior. The sports car was delivered to the dealer Nordrhein GmbH in Düsseldorf, who sold it to its first owner (name known) in Düsseldorf-Benrath. Even today, the car retains (still or again) its original delivery colour of slate grey – to this day a classic and typical Porsche paint finish – and, with its current red leather interior, presents an extremely stylish combination. The engine and gearbox are still the original units with ‘matching numbers’. This is something that cannot be taken for granted in a 356 after more than 60 years.

The sporty roadster later found its way to France. There, in 2010–2011, it underwent a complete and professional ‘frame-off’ restoration by Serge Heitz, a renowned restoration specialist known far beyond France’s borders. As part of the restoration, the entire mechanical system, chassis, electrical system, gearbox and all components of the drivetrain were thoroughly overhauled. The engine was also overhauled and, by using ‘big bore’ pistons, the power output was increased to around 85 hp. The braking system was renewed and, in 2023, the current owner retrofitted front disc brakes. Moreover, the underbody was treated with a protective coating.

The bodywork has been fully restored, with perfectly aligned doors and bonnets, and features a new high-quality paint finish. All bodywork and chrome elements, including the wheel rims, still look almost as good as new. The interior has also been completely refurbished (leather upholstery, door panels, floor coverings) and the instruments have been professionally restored. Overall, an excellent standard of quality has been achieved, which is immediately striking and continues to impress upon closer inspection.

In 2015, the roadster made its way to Germany and was purchased by its current owner four years ago. Thanks to its professional, high-quality restoration, this 356 is a truly exceptional example and, as a roadster, is a rather rare appearance in any case.
