Porsche 356 B (T5) 1600 Super 90

THIS CAR

Production was completed on 28th September 1960, with first registration taking place in Travag, Lübeck on 3rd October 1960.

This is a matching numbers example, accompanied by its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity to support this.

The factory original specification was as follows:

• Slate Grey
• Leatherette & Corduroy Interior
• Chrome Wheels
• Red Coconut Mats

Today, the car is presented in its original colour of Slate Grey and still retains its factory-option chrome wheels. During restoration, the interior was retrimmed in Apple Green hide.

Restored both mechanically and cosmetically over a four-year period between 2019 and 2023, the attention to detail throughout is exceptional, demonstrating the significant care, passion, and investment that has gone into the project.

The history file includes invoices from Roger Bray, Kroon Wiring Harnesses, and Classic Auto Clock, along with over 500 photographs documenting the car’s restoration from start to finish.
