1964 Porsche 356 Sc: All Numbers Matching Rare Sc Coupe, Mechanically Overhauled on 2040-cars
Year:1964
Mileage:16566
Location:
Santa Barbara, California, United States

Offered for sale is our beautiful, solid and all numbers matching 1964 Porsche 356 SC Coupe finished in factory correct Signal Red (6407) over a tan interior and verified with its original Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Just acquired from a private collector in New Hampshire, the car was restored and refinished years ago by its prior owner, including a rebuild of its top specification, 95hp SC engine. With an excellent suspension and standard four wheel disc brakes, the car is as strong running and fun to drive as any 356 we’ve owned, arguably the best vintage back roads weekend driver on the market, the ultimate expression of Porsche’s 356 cornerstone. The car’s Signal Red finish is abundantly presentable,
deep, lustrous and marred only by minimal imperfections, none of which are
evident in any of the pictures. The body is very straight, the door and panel
fits are all good, and the rubber is all in great shape. The chrome has been
redone and remains in good condition, as does all of the glass,
free of any wiper scrapes or rock chips. The chrome wheels and colored crest
hub caps are in great shape, wrapped in tires with plenty of remaining tread.
The car’s interior is equally as clean, the reupholstered tan leather seats and
interior panels showing only negligible wear, the correct, German square-weave
carpets and rubber mats in excellent condition and the headliner without flaw. The
padded dash is in excellent shape and the car retains its original, uncracked
steering wheel, as well as its original Blaupunkt radio. The car’s pans and
battery box were replaced by the prior owner and the undercarriage appears
entirely solid. The boot is neat and correct, housing the original spare wheel,
leather holding strap, changing tools and partial tool kit. In recent months the 356 SC has been reviewed, sorted, and detailed by Porsche marque expert Randy Currier of Holderness, New Hampshire, using only correct and top-quality parts. Among the items addressed: the engine was tuned, the valves were adjusted, the fuel system was fitted with all-new fuel lines and filters, the Solex carburetors were rebuilt and tuned, the cooling-fan drive belt was replaced, and both the motor oil and oil filter were changed. The ignition system benefits from a new condenser, distributor cap, and rotor, and a new battery was installed as well. A primer reservoir supplied by Precision Matters assists in cold-starting ease. New brakes were installed, the suspension was fitted with new kingpins and kingpin links, and all shock absorbers were replaced, as were the rubber axle boots. All wheels were powder-coated for a durable finish and correct original hubcaps with the Porsche crest were fitted. Inside, the seat-adjustment tracks and seat belts were restored, tan leather hold-down straps for the front-mounted spare tire and luggage shelf were installed into their respective locations, and correct floor mats were added. Now this beautiful example is looking for another caring owner who will continue to enjoy it, whether as the beautiful, solid, weekend driver that it is today or as an excellent platform for a top tier restoration in the years to come. With the exception of the Italian supercars, perhaps no other marque has seen its classics generate more consistent appreciation over the last decade than Porsche, and acquiring an original, solid, fully numbers matching, hard to find 356SC is sure to yield rewards, in both monetary terms and enjoyment of ownership. We want this car to go to great home and would be happy to further
discuss it and answer any questions, so please feel free to email us or call us
at 805-202-4557. You can also visit us online at GoodmanReed. Goodman Reed Motorcars We’ve always had an appreciation for classic European cars and over the
years have created an eclectic personal collection. We only buy cars that we’d
personally be interested in owning and generally only sell them to make room
for other acquisitions. That time has come for this Porsche (if the price is
right, of course – this isn’t a fire sale). We try to give accurate
descriptions of the cars we’re selling, but we’re enthusiasts, not experts, and
we encourage and are happy to help facilitate personal or professional
inspections. But please do so before bidding, as the alternative harms our
ability to make sales to other interested parties who have done their proper
due diligence before bidding. For
U.S. buyers a 10% non-refundable deposit is required within 3 days of the
auction’s end, the balance to be paid within 7 days of the auction’s end.
Foreign buyers must pay in full within 7 business days of the auction’s end.
Buyer is responsible for shipping, however we’d be more that happy to help with
recommendations and arrangements. The car is listed locally and we reserve the
right to end the auction at any time should it sell prior to auction’s end.
Thanks for your interest. |

Lanzante building 11 Porsche 930 restomods with actual F1-raced engines
Fri, Oct 12 2018In " Casino Royale," James Bond gets a lesson in tailored clothing when Vesper Lynd gives him a new dinner jacket. Bond tell her he already has a jacket, and Lynd replies, "There are dinner jackets and dinner jackets. This one is the latter." News from Lanzante makes us paraphrase that line in saying, "There are 911 restomods and 911 restomods." Lanzante's is definitely the latter. The English engineering firm is building 11 Eighties-era Porsche 930s with genuine TAG-branded Porsche engines that the McLaren Formula One team used to win 25 races. From 1984 to 1987, Porsche built a 1.5-liter turbocharged V6, branded as the TAG-Porsche TTE P01, for the McLaren MP4/2 and MP4/3; if the naming seems odd to cover four years, it's because McLaren raced the MP4/2B and MP4/2C in 1985 and 1986. The engine produced more than 1,000 horsepower in qualifying trim, and 750 hp in race spec. In its first three years on the grid, the engine powered McLaren to two Constructor's Championships, and three Driver's Championships for Niki Lauda and Alain Prost. During that time, McLaren built a prototype Porsche 930 with that TAG engine, but kept it so far out of sight that people spoke of it as a rumor. The English carmaker finally proved the rumor true a few years ago when it put the prototype on display in the lobby of its Woking headquarters. Enter Lanzante, which has a history with McLaren going back to at least 1995, when it prepped the Veno Clinic McLaren F1 GTR that won Le Mans that year. More recently, it built road-legal P1 GTRs called the P1 GT, and a one-off P1 Longtail. McLaren sold Lanzante the 11 engines for this run of monstrously overpowered Porsche coupes, and Lanzante showed off the first example at the recent Rennsport Reunion at Laguna Seca — news that somehow got lost in the general Porsche overdose and Moby Dick revival. Built just like the original McLaren-Porsche prototype, no one will think anything's astray with the new version's white bodywork and RUF wheels. The camouflage continues inside, where a pair of upholstered racing buckets might offer a small clue. The instrument panel gives things away, containing a tachometer branded "TAG Turbo" with a 9,000-rpm redline, and a water temperature gauge. Cosworth is restoring the engines for the program, and each of the 11 examples gets a plaque in the engine bay listing its engine's race history.
Road & Track names its 2013 Performance Car of the Year
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Road & Track recently staged its first annual Performance Car of the Year test, pitting 13 new and updated performance cars against each other on track, then graduating the top six to a road test before picking a winner. Additionally, the magazine staff picked the best automobiles of the year in eight categories.
But first, let's cover the PCotY segment. Here's the list of cars brought to the comparison test: Audi R8 V10 Plus; BMW 435i; BMW M6 Competition Package; Chevrolet Corvette Stingray Z51; Ferrari F12 Berlinetta; Ford Fiesta ST; Jaguar F-Type V8 S; Jaguar XFR-S; Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S-Model Wagon; Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black Series; Mini John Cooper Works GP; Nissan GT-R Track Edition; and Porsche Cayman S.
To find out the results of the comparison, head over to Road & Track's website or check the press release below, where you'll also find the magazine's top-rated vehicles in eight categories. Want more? Head over to the 2013 PCotY hub. But before you do that, take a stab at guessing the winner of PCotY (we'll give you one hint: it isn't a Porsche).
MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo
Thu, 24 Jul 2014Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.
