This 1953 356 Porsche is truly a rare “Barn Find”. The previous owner purchased the car from his girlfriend’s father (a doctor)  over 24 years ago as it was being repainted. He had the car painted Black and used this Pre-A 356 to carry him back and forth to collage (3 hour drive) in Chapel Hill North Carolina. The car was purchased out of Danville, Virginia by the Doctor many years before.

For everybody looking for a Split window or Pre-A 356,  here’s your chance for a numbers matching complete car with all of the hard to find pieces still intact. The car will need to be completely restored (floor pans and battery pans will need replacing) but as I said all of the hard to find trim pieces are present and is only missing the spare, jack, toolkit and date stamped wheels. We have been chasing 356’s for many years and most of the “Barn Find” 356’s are long gone or picked over, here’s one that is not.
