  • Iconic 356 Speedster presented in great state and condition
  • Finished in the attractive factory-correct colour pairing of Ruby Red over a Black leatherette interior
  • Powered by a period-correct 1,582 cc flat-four boxer engine
  • Benefits from restoration work performed largely to original specification
  • Offered with a copy of its factory Kardex sheet and a tool roll

The arrival of Porsche’s intentionally spartan 356 Speedster revolutionised the world of low-cost, high-reward sports cars, which had been previously dominated in the early 1950s by small British roadsters. Seeking access to this growing market segment, New York importer Max Hoffman urged Ferry Porsche to provide him with a price-competitive model, one that he could sell for a base price of just under $3,000. The exciting Speedster was an instant hit—particularly with customers on the United States’ West Coast—and is coveted by enthusiasts today.

The attractive Ruby Red over Black example, offered here, began life with its first owner on the warm shores of California, USA. An earlier sales listing suggests that by the 1990s, its factory-fitted engine had been replaced and the interior was refinished in tan. Since then, though, the Porsche is noted to have undergone restoration by California-based workshop European Collectibles. During this process the 356 Speedster was returned largely to original specification, as noted by the copy of the Kardex sheet that accompanies the car. Notably, the 356 gained a period-correct 1,582 cc Type 616/1 flat-four boxer engine, sending power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual gearbox.

At the point of restoration, the interior was switched back to its factory-correct black leatherette, complementing its rich Ruby Red exterior.

Today, the car presents in impeccable condition throughout, with bidders encouraged to appreciate the high quality of finish that is particularly evident with the exterior bodywork.

Die Ankunft von Porsches gewollt spartanischem 356 Speedster glich einer Revolution im Markt der kostengünstigen Sportwagen, der in den frühen 1950er Jahren vor allem von den britischen Marken dominiert war. Auch dieses Fahrzeug ging auf die Initiative von Max Hoffman zurück, dem umtriebigen New Yorker Importeur, der von Ferry Porsche ein wettbewerbsfähiges Modell verlangte, das sich für weniger als 3.000 US-Dollar verkaufen ließ. Der aufregende Speedster war ein sofortiger Erfolg, vor allem bei Käufern an der amerikanischen Westküste ebenso wie bei Porsche Liebhabern heute.

Auch das hier angebotene Exemplar in attraktivem Rubinrot mit schwarzem Innenraum begann sein Leben an der warmen Küste von Kalifornien. Ein älteres Verkaufsinserat lässt vermuten, dass der Originalmotor bereits in den 1990er Jahren ersetzt worden und der Innenraum in hellbraun ausgeführt war. Anschließend allerdings wurde der Speedster bei European Collectibles in Kalifornien restauriert und dabei weitgehend in den Originalzustand zurückversetzt, wie aus einem Vergleich mit der originalen Kardex ersichtlich ist.

Vor allem ist darauf hinzuweisen, dass dieser 356 einen zeitgenössisch korrekten 1.582 cm² Vierzylinder Boxer vom Typ 616/1 bekommen hat, der seine Kraft über ein Vierganggetriebe auf die Hinterräder überträgt. Zum Zeitpunkt der Restaurierung wurde auch der Innenraum wieder mit dem originalen schwarzen Kunstleder ausgeschlagen, eine wunderbare Kombination mit dem rubinroten Lack.

Heute präsentiert sich dieser Wagen in makellosem Zustand. Interessenten sollten besonders auf die hohe Qualität der Arbeiten achten, die vor allem am Zustand der Karosserie ersichtlich ist.
