Porsche 356SC

1964 Porsche 356

This 1964 356C SC Karmann Coupe was completed on February 25, 1964 and shipped to West Slope Motor Company in Portland, Oregon. The original owner kept the car from new until parking it in his garage in approximately 2000 with 30,741 miles on the odometer.
Following the owner's passing, this car was acquired in 2014 by long-time Porsche collector and racer, Monte Shelton. At that time, the numbers-matching engine was removed and rebuilt by Porsche 356 specialist, Wes Andrews. New 1720 cc pistons and liners. New valves, springs, seats. New 6 volt Optima battery. This Porsche runs smooth and strong with plenty of power. Now showing less than 500 miles since the rebuild. Recent engine check showed just 2% leakdown across all cylinders. Please see video of engine running.
Body is excellent. Original floor pan with only one small 8" square area previously and correctly repaired on the driver's floor. No signs of rust, rot or damage. Excellent panel, door and hood fit. Mostly original Signal Red paint with some unnoticeable touchup on the hood and body as needed, by paint expert, Tom Black. Recently fully wet sanded and polished to a dazzling finish. Please see photos. Chrome and trim are excellent. New 15" x 5 ½" wheels, Michelin radial tires and correct hubcaps.
Interior was correctly restored with new upholstery, carpet and headliner. All gauges work and register accurately. Original Blaupunkt AM radio. Tool roll. Jack. Fitted car cover.
This car is numbers-matching throughout and includes a Certificate of Authenticity from Porsche.
I have personally driven this car and it runs and drives beautifully. Tight steering. 4-speed manual transmission shifts crisply. Disc brakes stop the car smooth and straight. A real pleasure to drive. Nimble and fast.
If you are looking for a fully dialed-in 356 SC with freshly restored mechanicals and cosmetics done by marque experts, this is the one.
