Introducing this one-family owned 1964 Porsche 356SC 1600 Coupe featured with matching numbers. Finished in its factory color Silver Metallic (6206) exterior complemented with a black interior. Beloved by the same owner since 1964, this classic Porsche comes with a rich history that is deeply rooted in the sunny state of California sporting an original black California license plate. This timeless 356 exudes timeless elegance and classic charm, making it a must-have for any discerning collector or enthusiast.
The original owner embarked on a journey to Stuttgart, Germany, where he personally selected and imported this beauty to the United States. Little did he know that this decision would lead to a fateful encounter that would change his life forever. As fate would have it, while driving through a parking lot in Southern California, the owner’s gaze fell upon a young woman who captured his attention. In a moment of chivalry, he graciously allowed her to pass by, sparking a conversation that would ignite a spark of romance and ultimately a marriage that lasted multiple decades. Initially, the woman playfully teased the Porsche, calling it “ugly” in jest. However, as they delved deeper into conversation, they discovered a shared passion for cars that blossomed into a love story for the ages.
Powered by its original 356SC 1600 engine, paired with a 4-speed manual transmission for an exhilarating driving experience. Equipped with dual Solex carburetors, numbers-matching rear decklid, this Porsche delivers impressive performance and a distinctive engine sound that will turn heads wherever you go. Additional equipment includes four-wheel disc brakes, VDO instrumentation, chrome headlight rings, dual exhaust outlets, 3-spoke steering wheel with a horn, chrome trim, body-color bumpers with chrome overriders, Michelin tires, and 15-inch steel wheels with chrome hub caps with Porsche-crests. The convenience manual-crank windows, and driver-side rearview mirror ensure optimal visibility and control on the road, while the pop-out rear quarter windows add a touch of practicality to the interior. Featured amenities include Blaupunkt radio, sun visors, and an analog clock. Every aspect of this vehicle has been carefully crafted to provide a luxurious and comfortable driving experience that is second to none.
With a plethora of provenance to authenticate its heritage, including the Invoice Number – Facture No. from the factory in Stuttgart, Germany, Importer’s and Manufacturer’s Statement of Origin to a Motor Vehicle, Porsche Sales invoice, Order for Porsche Cars from Stuttgart, Germany, and Shipping documents from Spain when the car was exported/imported to the United States, this classic beauty comes with a story to tell.
Also included is an owner’s manual, service book , manufacturer’s literature, and service receipt copies, showcasing its investment between August 1964 through May 2019, essentially its entire life. Whether you’re a seasoned collector or a first-time buyer, this extremely original and rare Reutter-bodied 356SC is a great find that deserves a place in your collection and is mechanically sound.
