This 1964 Porsche 356SC coupe is a matching-numbers example finished in correct Signal Red with a black vinyl interior.
It is powered by a mildly modified 1,720cc flat-four featuring the original crank case and original 4-speed manual transaxle.
The original Type 616 flat-four engine received larger pistons and cylinders in 2015, boosting displacement to 1,720cc.
Porsche mechanic Welsey Andrews inspected the bottom end, replaced an exhaust valve, and fitted the big bore kit.
Porsche specialist Dick Elverude did head work and provided the pistons and cylinders.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through the original 4-speed Type 741/2C manual transaxle.
The Karmann-built T6 body is painted Signal Red and has been redone in the past.
Brightwork includes the front trunk handle, bumpers, headlight surrounds, window trim, twin engine grilles, and the driver’s mirror.
Twin tail pipes can be seen exiting through the rear bumper overriders.
Chassis number 217293 is present on the matching chassis plate, stamped bodywork in the front trunk, and the plaque in the driver’s door jam.
15×5.5″ chrome wheels are mounted with Michelin XZX tires, with a full-size matching spare in the front trunk. Shallow hub caps with colored Porsche crests are fitted along with the factory ATE disc brakes at all four corners.
The interior is finished in correct black vinyl upholstery on the seats, door panels, and dashboard top.
Matching black carpeting lines the floors and speakers can be seen fitted to the kick panels.
Chrome seat hardware allows for folding and access to the rear.
The 3-spoke steering wheel is equipped with a Porsche-crested horn button, and the original Blaupunkt radio remains in place.
The matching Signal Red dashboard features VDO instrumentation including a 6k rpm tachometer, 120 mph speedometer, and center-mounted clock. 30,896 are shown on the odometer, however true mileage is unknown.
