AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Overview/Conditions
This 356 comes from Germany - Stuttgart and was produced in September 1962. It was imported into Italy by the previous owner in June 1990, and since July 2015, it has been kept by the current owner.
Vehicle accompanied by the original Porsche Certificates that attest to everything.
It was produced in white with red Cartier interiors; the previous Italian owner, when restoring it, had it painted black while keeping the red Cartier interiors.
The vehicle is ASI approved and also has the Certificate of Historical Significance, which certifies the originality of the restoration carried out.
The car was fully restored by its former owner, both in the bodywork and interior, maintaining all its original sheet metal about 10 years ago. In 2024, I had a specialized workshop completely overhaul the engine, including the replacement of pistons, rings, crankshaft, etc., and also completely rebuilt the gearbox. In June 2025, it was fully repainted, with careful disassembly of all handles, headlights, turn signals, chrome parts including the rear window and windshield, and all gaskets were replaced in the door compartments, trunk, engine bay, windshield, and rear window, including moldings.
Overall, it is a car in excellent condition that needs nothing, ready to use, always keeping in mind that it is a vehicle of about 63 years.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
