The Official 356Talk Forum

Several years ago I went through all the classifieds in a set of Panorams I have from 1969 to 1972. I made a nice Excel spread sheet with date of ad, name of seller, location and chassis number. Unfortunately, not being an Excel expert, when I tried to rearrange the sheet by chassis number, not all of the columns got rearranged. So, I lost the relationship to some of the other data. I just found my written notes which contain the correct relationship, so I am posting the chassis numbers. If one of these is your car, contact me and I will get you the other data. I have some engine numbers, if they were in the ad.

If your chassis number is not on this list, I have no information.

158110588 65 coupe, this was the number in the ad

Nice job, Phil!

I am only sorry that my #87954 wasn't on your list, as I would love to know the ownership history of my car before 1975 when Harvey Smith bought it from David R. Koehn, a Wisconsin resident who has seemingly disappeared without a trace.

Otherwise, anything on S-90 engines #800629 and #802147 on your engine list?

The following S90 engines and cars were listed:
800335
806058
117617 chassis with no engine # listed
801273
61 cab 155348 no engine # listed
61 sunroof 112580 no engine # listed
62 cab 155628 P607266(not S90 engine)
800667
61 cab 154132 KDP800848
60 Conv D 87896 P800533 Did Porsche make S90 Ds?

Hi, we do own # 5447 - are there any additional infos you have on this '51 Coupé as I´m trying to find out as much as I can about the car / the cars´ history - pre-owners etc. ?

Thanks!

Frank

´

Hi Frank,
I owned that car from July 1972 til March 1979.
Email me for further information. I have some previous owners and later owners in my records.

Hi Phil,

#53403 is my '55 Continental Coupe that I've owned since April 2000... I'd love to learn a little more about it's history...

Many Thanks,

Anthony

#12345 America Roadster belongs to Chuck Stoddard. It is also Vic's birth date which is why he wants it so bad!

Phil

I currently own a 1959 356A Coupe vin#105366

I would appreciate any information that you have concerning he history of the car.

Jeff Abate

Phil your email is not available with the post

105366 was advertised in the June, 1972, Panorama by Jim Comer, Charlotte, NC

I have no control on when my email button shows up in a post. Maybe it is because this was posted before the forum upgrades.

Phil

Doug Edited post:
I do have control. Apparently with the loss of PM we have to go in and change "make email available to users" from no to yes.

Phil,

Thanks for the timely response and information.

Jeff Abate

Hi Phil - I know it has been quite a while since your orginal post, but would you be able to provide information on #84532? And perhaps, would you please provide the month/year of the issue in which you found it listed? Thank you!

Hi Phil, i have info regarding RS550a -0134 the second car on your list. do you know who the current owner is by chance?

No

I owned '52 1500S Coupe 1567 from 1968 to about 1988, sold to Steve Ruddock, probably dismantled, some parts to Tom Scott's first '52 356 Coupe restoration.
