1965 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet — Fully Restored European Example
According to the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, this 1965 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet was completed for the German domestic market and originally finished in Irish Grün with a black leather interior.
After an initial period in Germany, the car was acquired in the Canary Islands in the 1990s, where it underwent an initial restoration. During that period, the original engine was reportedly replaced due to deterioration with a correct 1965 KD-type unit, closely consistent with the factory specifications and original number sequence.
Acquired by Giro Classico in 2017 as a complete restoration project, the Porsche subsequently underwent an extremely thorough nut-and-bolt restoration. The body was completely disassembled and chemically stripped to bare metal before extensive sheet-metal work was carried out, with particular attention paid to preserving the integrity of the original structure. It is important to note that the doors, lids and front hood retain the correct corresponding body numbers.
The mechanical restoration was equally comprehensive and included the transmission, gearbox, suspension, braking system and chassis components, together with the installation of a custom-made stainless-steel exhaust system.
Upon completion, the body was finished in its original Irish Grün, while the interior was trimmed in elegant beige leather, creating a refined combination consistent with the period. The entire restoration is documented by an extensive photographic archive comprising more than 400 images.
Since the end of 2018, the car has been part of a private Porsche collection in Austria, where it has been carefully stored and sparingly used. Since the completion of the restoration, it has covered only approximately 2,000 km.
Recently serviced, including fluid replacement, inspection of the braking system and comprehensive mechanical checks, the car presents in exceptional condition and is ready for immediate road use.
It is accompanied by the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, an extensive photographic book documenting the restoration, documentation relating to the work carried out and the complete original tool kit.
Thanks to its rare SC Cabriolet configuration, European provenance, original factory color, matching-number body panels and extensively documented restoration, this 1965 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet represents a particularly compelling proposition for the most discerning collector.
