1959 Porsche 356 (Blue/Tan)

Price: US $51,900.00 SOLD OUT

I have owned this little beauty since 2018.  I am the third owner.  I purchased it from a friend here in Naples who gave me the car history. The first owner, who lived in Washington State, owned several Intermeccanica’s over the years. In early 2011, he commissioned Intermeccanica to build this one as close to an original 356 as possible, according to Henry Reisner, the owner of Intermeccanica. Sadly, the first owner died several months after he took possession of the car. His two daughters (both of whom also lived in the state of Washington) took ownership of the car through the will.  One of the sisters also owned an Intermeccanica. According to the sisters, the car sat in storage from 2011 until November 2016, which is when he took possession of the car. The sisters told him that they took the car ‘out for a spin” once in a while during the car’s hibernation. There were 2800 miles on the clock ( or 4500 kilometers- the speedometer and odometer are in kilos) on the clock when he took possession. This car has been a nice toy for my wife and I to cruise Naples and attend local car shows, we are selling to consolidate our car collection. She's a beauty! GENERAL INFORMATION: 1959 Porsche Roadster D Custom Built By Intermeccanica of British Columbia, Canada  CUSTOM BUILD DATE: February 2011  MILEAGE: 5,850  REGISTRATION: Florida Antique Car COLOR: Lapis Blue POR 3A8w/Glasurit Base Clear  INTERIOR:  SEATS: Roadster seats with adjustable head rests  UPHOLSTERY: Original style vinyl Tan  CARPET: Square Weave Wool Tan  TOP/BOOT COVER: Roadster Stayfast Black/Beige 1727FASTERNERS: Tenax Fasterners  STANDARD FEATURES: Full Custom hand-built construction Intermeccanica-designed and fabricated-tube-steel chassis Original Convertible D windshield and top with large rear window for excellent top-up visibility/wind protection  Intermeccanica designed Stayfast cloth top with zippered read window for optimum visibility and durability  Original restoration grade detail and materials throughoutCanadian made one-piece, fully reinforced ISO resin composite body, box-section hood, trunk and doors  Fully jig-bonded body and frame  Oven post-cured body to guarantee fiberglass stability High-quality body preparation and paint, utilizing epoxy primer and Glasurit German acrylic urethane paint with full cut-polish finish MECHANICALS: ENGINE: VW Factory Type 1 /Base 1,600cc  EXHAUST SYSTEM: Intermeccanica Custom “Big Pipe” quiet SST tip TRANSAXLE: Intermeccanica VW Type 1 4-Speed, Base 4.12:1 final drive SUSPENSION: Intermeccanica Base, worm and rolling steering; 22mm torsion bars and gas shocks BRAKE SYSTEM: Intermeccanica Disc Brakes front drums rear; SST brake hoses  WHEELS: 15x5.5 chrome Mangels with “Moon” caps  TIRES: Yokohama Avid Envigor 185/65-15 SPECIAL FEATURES:  Euro 1959 chromed “short” bumper guards  Original wool Square Weave Carpet Nardi 390mm wood steering wheel KPH speedometer Clarion AM/FM/CD/MP3 radio in painted original look radio pod with Clarion 3-way speakers  Original style door handles with locking push button  Chrome plated hood handles Chrome plated windshield frame with Reproduction 356 chrome washer nozzles Passenger side door mirror & Dash grab handle Breakerless HP ignition SST Oil LinesCustom spring plates with inboard ride height adjustment  Trailing arm pivot point adjustability Auxiliary power port under dash  Battery cut off switchIf you have any questions call and/or text Shawn at 317. 339. 1038.  Sorry, not interested in trades. The vehicle is being sold “as is” and purchaser will be responsible for shipping the vehicle at their own cost.
