This 1955 Porsche 356 1500 is a Reutter-bodied bent-window coupe that was built on January 27, 1955 and is a single-year-only Continental model.

It was acquired by the seller’s family on BaT in November 2021 from its prior owner of 49 years, and subsequent work involved installing a 1,720cc flat-four, dual EMPI carburetors, a Stinger-style exhaust, and Rudge-style 15″ wheels along with converting the electrical system to 12-volts and replacing the fuel tank.

The car is finished in red over tan upholstery, and equipment includes a four-speed manual transaxle, tinted sun visors, a single-grille engine lid, and painted bumpers.

This Pre-A 356 is offered with the removed engine, spare parts, badging, service records, and a clean Oregon title in the owner’s name.
