WCSTA-30- 1963 356B S90 Sunroof Coupe (Euro Version)

#1 Post by GEORGE KLOUDA »

One Euro version 356B(T6) began its history somewhere overseas only to end up in Maryland. I happened to aquire it in 1986 from a gentleman ("Urban the Terrible") headed to Florida to retire on a sail boat. Considering the car was in boxes, I should have known I might be faced with a few-year restoration. After assembling it as is and running it within a 5 mile radius until 2013 it came time to restore it - either now or never. I dismantled the car, delivered it for restoration and insisted on participating in the work. The serious work started in February of this year while accumulating needed parts at swap meets and online. Photos are attached; unfortunately, they can't tell the stories behind the car. We can only imagine what it may have gone through to survive this much.
