 Description

1963 Porsche 356 B T6 Cabriolet Reuter NO RESERVE

 

California Black Plate, Runs Well.

 

 

VIN: 157322

Mileage: 91,897

 

 

Very original and proper 1963 356 B T6 Twin Grill project car. Nearly complete. Many new parts. Was dismantled for restoration and has been in storage in a body shop for many years. Recently unearthed, inventoried and actually started. Motor runs beautifully. Gas tank will require cleaning and perhaps repair. Car has had metal patches done and pans replaced to floor areas, still needs complete restoration, though as stated, the engine runs great. We believe the engine was rebuilt because even after many years of storage, it started up easily with no smoke, great compression and it even idled well. The engine is correct for the car, but the shroud is incorrectly painted. The filter housing is also incorrectly painted.

 

 

The car was originally silver with a red leather interior. Nearly everything is included with the car but it is missing one rear seat cushion. We have taped most of the pieces on to the car to show them, but they will be removed and repacked to be shipped to the new owner. They were previously carefully packed and labeled before and will be once again.

 

This car is going to be sold at no reserve. This is an incredible opportunity. These 356’s are one of the fastest growing segments of the collector car world and are simply impossible to find. A cabriolet from California is absurdly rare.

 

The panel fit of this Porsche is pretty good. This is a true California Black Plate Car. Finding a project this complete and sound that already runs is surely a needle in a haystack. Actually being able to buy it NO RESERVE truly adds to the excitement. We do reserve the right to sell before the end of the auction.

 5.    Our goal is to continue providing quality vehicles. It is important to keep in mind that the vehicles we list are pre-owned, and it is very difficult to describe every small mark on them.

These factors will not detract from the overall appearance and value of the vehicle. Minor items such as cigarette lighters, manuals and CD magazines may also be missing.

 6. To the best of our knowledge we have indicated any mechanical problems that are present in the description above. However, we are selling the vehicle "as is", without warranty other than any existing factory warranty that may still remain. Please inquire for details. Unless the vehicle has a remaining factory warranty, all sales are "AS-IS" with no warranty stated or implied.

 7. eBay may offer some type of warranty. If so, that warranty is separate and independent of Cosmopolitan Motors, LLC.
