Used 1959 Porsche 356
Location:
Astoria, NY
Description:
1959 Porsche 356 1600 Super Convertible D This 1959 Porsche 356 1600 Super 75hp Convertible D with Coachwork by Drauz is a matching numbers example and one of only 1,330 produced making it an extremely rare and desirable car. Red with black interior. The car comes solid, complete, and ready for straightforward restoration. Just out of long-term ownership and storage, it's not currently running. An exciting discovery and the perfect west coast project car. The original Porsche 356 Speedster has become a legend, but in its day, it was just a bit too bare-bones for some customers. Porsche’s answer was the 356A Convertible D, “D” referring to Drauz, the German coachbuilder that produced the new car’s bodywork. The new car featured a higher windshield and wind-up door windows for enhanced weather protection, as well as fully upholstered seats, and it was built using the same 356A styling, chassis, and drivetrain as the final Speedsters. Of the three versions of Porsche’s lightweight open cars equipped with removable chrome-framed windshields, the Convertible D is the rarest. Only 1,330 were built, compared to nearly 4,000 356 and 356A Speedsters and 2,653 356B Roadsters. That makes the Convertible D a prized commodity today. A rare, most attractive, and more practical alternative to the 356 Speedster. A highly collectible Porsche that would be an absolute joy and privilege to own.
