In late 1959, significant styling and technical refinements resulted in a complete re-design of the Porsche 356 A. The key visual difference between the A and B series cars was the 356 B included a more pronounced front bumper with enlarged rim guards, higher-positioned headlamps, a wider, front-lid handle, more pronounced horn grilles and further-protruding front indicators. The rear bumper was also re-positioned higher than previous models. In mid-1962, the 356 B model was changed to the T6 body type. By the time the Porsche 356 B had been introduced, and throughout its entire production run, it remained one of the best-selling of the 356 variants. From 1959-1963, a total of 30,963 Porsche 356 B examples were manufactured.
This particular 356 1600 Super comes with some amazing history. In approx 1995 the President of the 356 Register bought the car back from America and was later converted & restored by a well know Porsche restorer here in SA . The car had a couple of owners and then was purchased by our client some 18 years ago. It has been beautifully maintained over its journey including an engine rebuilt some years ago. It comes with a huge file dating back nearly two decades and you really get the feeling nothing has been left to chance with this car. Features include

- Original steering wheel included
- 356 owners workshop manual
