Porsche coupe, 1963, 356B Karmann bodied 1600 coupe. It has been regularly maintained and is in unrestored original condition. The car is in running condition and can be a regular driver or an easy restoration. It was purchased in 1965 by the current owner in Denver CO. The car has been garaged most of its existence. The owner believes that the car is all original as it was nearly new when purchased. It has never been in an accident so body fit is excellent. The engine and body numbers match. The engine was been recently ( in the last two years ) evaluated and some repairs and replacement work was completed by a Porsche specialist. The valves were done and the lifters were replaced. Both carburetors were rebuilt and the fuel pump was replaced. The starter was rebuilt and kingpins were replaced. The flywheel was removed and resurfaced. The fuel tank was removed, cleaned, resealed on the inside and then repainted. The left front shock, however, needs replacing. The specialist determined that the clutch, steering, and transmission are all in good, running condition so no additional drive line work was done. All gauges, switches and lights are operational.
