1962 Porsche 356b Super Cabriolet: “CONCOURS SHOWCAR QUALITY”

 

CONCOURS SHOWCAR RESTORATION: 1962 PORSCHE 356B CABRIOLET: better than NEW!!!

Numbers Matching! According to Porsche Certificate of Authenticity that goes with the car. Car is original color, Ivory.

 

We are excited to offer one of the best completely restored 356s on the market today. Cars restored at this level are indeed very rare.

 

This car would be rated No.2++ in our opinion, where a No. 1 car is not driven and like showroom condition with zero miles. This car is truly a “showcar driver”!

 

This has been a meticulous, no expense spared, professional restoration. Documented with over 300 photos from start to finish!

 

The Porsche was totally disassembled, taken to bare metal (see pictures), then expertly repaired. The car was extensively prepped for paint and then painted with Deluxe Glasurit Ivory paint. This paint job would have to be rated a 10! And it was done several months ago so it is seasoned! Victor Quinones, owner of It’s Finished in Indian Trail, N.C. did the body work and professional paint.

 

All chrome is original part than came on the car and has been re-plated.

All new correct wiring harnesses.

Rubber: all rubber is new

Keys: All keys were purchased from Porsche key expert in Pennsylvania and include glovebox key, shifter key, truck pull key, door keys, and ignition key.

 

Mechanics: Original Super engine (#700007) was totally rebuilt, (we have receipts), New rebuilt carburetors, engine runs great. Engine compartment is detailed to perfection as per original. Parts for engine were purchased from Stoddard as were a lot of other parts for the car.

 

Interior and top: Interior and canvas top are from Autos International of California. Top frame was reconditioned and correctly painted. Top is tan canvas and interior seats are covered in exquisite leather and are biscuit color. Carpet is squared German weave. Car comes with two sets of Cocomats: black/tan spots and the other biscuit that matches carpet. These were tailor fitted by the Cocomat people in Fort Mill, S.C.

Transmission: original #50011 was disassembled and rebuilt

Brakes and suspension: New and rebuilt

All gauges were gone through professionally and clock keeps great time as it is quartz.

Driver’s Handbook: Included

5  Painted 356 Period Wheels, 5 new tires

Jaguar F-Type coupe to cost more than convertible?

Tue, 30 Jul 2013

Jaguar may price the much-rumored F-Type Coupe above the F-Type Convertible, if a report from Australia's Drive is to be believed. What makes Jag think that such a pricing strategy would work? Porsche. Take a look at the German manufacturer's consumer site, and you'll notice that the Boxster is less expensive than the Cayman, despite being essentially the same car.
It's a fair point, and a price premium does a good job of emphasizing the sporting chops of the coupe over the open-air experience that normally entitles convertibles to higher MSRPs. It's unclear just how closely Jaguar will follow Porsche's example, though.
Both the Cayman and Cayman S boast an extra ten horsepower over a Boxster or Boxster S, and while this bump in grunt is negligible in every situation but an argument over which is "best," it isn't something to be ignored in the F-Type, particularly as cranking more power out of its supercharged engines should be a rather simple matter.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over

Mon, 03 Sep 2012


After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
