1959 PRS restored 356 cabriolet T2 by reutter For Sale

We are delighted to be offering for sale this wonderful 1959 Porsche 356 A Cabriolet

Most recently purchased by a Mr Burningham from the Gullwing motor company in New York

It was destined to come home with him back to the UK, and began its new life here in March 2014

Prior to purchasing the car for $101000 Mr Burningham instructed Steve Linden of Smithtown NY to carry out a detailed pre purchase inspection report

It came back sounding very promising and only really identifying minor wear and tear and smaller defects to the car

It was also noted that the engine number P73501 was correct for the year and a T2 Cabriolet

With a positive report, chassis number 152030 was promptly purchased and imported back to the UK via CARS UK Ltd

Not long after finally taking delivery Mr B decided to find a marque specialist to check the car over and advise on any improvements

Fortunately, and unfortunately for his wallet, he found PR Services - one of the best and most passionate 356 restorers in the county.

Without going into too much detail, it was decided the car needed a full bare metal restoration plus a full engine overhaul to make it one of the finest examples

They also noted that the engine case was not matching to the car, but was indeed correct for the year and even the model

When the car arrived it was black, with a black roof and black interior

With the option to change the colour during the process, no hesitation was made to change to metallic silver coachwork and complemented by a full red leather retrim and all new carpets

In excess of £80000 was spent on the refurbishment and Mr Burningham had to patiently wait over 2 years for the work to be completed

Finally, in stunning condition and exactly how he could have dreamt, he has had some wonderful times in the car

It is with great regret that he is having to let it go to fund a new house project and someone will be very lucky to take ownership.

Viewing are strictly by appointment only - please call us on the details below

We can arrange worldwide shipping and can even offer competitive finance on this car
