356 Porsche for sale
Does anyone want this ’63 Porsche 356 Coupe? It has a clean title. Last winter we got a super heavy snow and had to shovel the roof and accidentally jumped onto the roof of the buried Porsche.

After a drive to Long Island to pick up cars, and Philadelphia to drop off an incredible Velocette Thruxton motorbike, we finally made it to Hot Springs, Virginia and the colossal hotel resort, The Homestead. The hotel is rich with history and while lobby alone is massive, a series of parlor rooms runs its length such that any small group can get away and feel as if they have their own private space.

We cleaned out the attic over the holiday and discovered a number of items that we’ll be putting on eBay in the coming weeks. Currently listed are a Bosch Voltage Regulator (black box BOSCH) 6v 12v volt for returning your classic back to the original configuration – or just the look.
A Ferrari Bonaldi Brake Booster for rebuild will only stop you in your tracks in it’s current condition – not working – but in very nice cosmetic shape.
A rare Ferrari 275 GTB and GTB/4 Egg-Crate Grille Brandoli reproduction isn’t easy to come by and is in good condition.
Marchall 660 Fog Lights for Ferrari 250, 225, 212, 166 will actually look at home on a variety of other cars including Porsche 356, Mercedes 300, etc.
Too bad about the rust, but this is a super complete and likely matching numbers 1956 Porsche 356 Coupe that I photographed in a barn the other day. The owner bought the car in the late 60′ when he was stationed in Europe for the US Military. He drove the car in Germany in the winter which he thinks was the start of the rust issues on the car but what great memories he must have.
I really like these cars and believe that they will be valuable enough to bring money that justifies getting this car back on the road. The details like the instruments and clock, the door frames without the 1/4 vents and original Becker radio. The owner wants to sell the car and get into a complete 356 so if you know someone who wants such a project, keep me in mind.
It isn’t quite the oldest Porsche in the USA, but if these get you going, check out the contest being run by Porsche in conjunction with their 60th anniversary in America. https://porsche.promo.eprize.com/60years/?loc=interstitialskip

Porsche No. 1, a midengine prototype, which predated the production 35.
This wonderful article was sent to me by a friend and is one of the best that I have read on classic cars. I like his comments at the end of the article highlighting proper restoration to original specification or outright originality being the most desirable to buyers right now. Well done! Check the article here.
Here is a Porsche 356 C coupe that we just purchased from a friend in southern California. It is a totally legit “black plate” car with perfect original floors and an original battery box floor which in the world of 356′s, is huge. The car is 100% complete and has what what I believe to be a matching numbers engine but I am going to apply for a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity so I can be certain of the numbers as well as learn what the original color was. I believe it was blue but not sure the exact shade.
Even thought the car needs everything rebuilt, overhauled or refinished, it will be a wonderful car to restore because it is so complete and its rock solid integrity
Nice job on the 356.
Syl is using RM clear on our projects lately, the Morgan, this Porsche, as well as a bunch of other projects over the last year or so. The stuff is SO clear, lays down so nicely and with next to no orange peel, straight out of the gun.
This Porsche had tons of rust, when we put it up in the air, the lift arms went right up into the frame at the torsion bar location and eventually started to pick the car off the ground! Now the body has been fixed, the car has paint, and it’s time for assembly.
