I owned a special orange Porsche-1958 coupe, 1600S engine, black leather upholstery, chrome wheels, Becker Europa radio, clock, oatmeal carpets, no outside rear-view mirror. I purchased it in Sept. of 1959 from Pete Lovely's Sports Car Center in Seattle-traded in my 1956 Austin Healey 100M. I was tired of its problems and not enjoying it so much in rainy Seattle. The Porsche was so much better in every way.Dan Macdonald wrote:Walt,
What is the chassis number of your A car? Is it close to my car which was originally Orange (105327)?
Sometimes they painted these cars in batches. But being a "Special Color" maybe not??
my '58 coupe (102943) was originally painted orange with black interior per the kardex. it was repainted silver sometime in the 80s with red interior installed.Don Rutherford wrote:Here's my Orange C coupe. #5711 Orange was one of 4 special order colors in '58/'59 (I assumed T-2 A's) There were 3 C cars painted that color per the Reutter handwritten record book. One is apparently in the collection of a well known comedian and I don't know the location of the other but have all 3 serial #'s if interested.
