This 1962 Porsche 356B T6 Cabriolet was built by Reutter and is No. 254 of 798 produced from August 1961 to July 1962. Finished in the original exterior color of Ruby Red with a Cashmere interior. Matching engine and transmission confirmed by Porsche Production Specifications. Factory equipment included ventilated chrome wheels and Dunlop tires. This 356B Cabriolet delivers a light and nimble driving experience that continues to define the 356 model.
The paintwork is in beautiful condition with excellent gaps and panel fit. The exterior trim, brightwork, rubber seals, and the soft top are in excellent condition. In 2021, the interior was upholstered by K&H European Auto Upholstery, including front seats with leather faces, rear seats, dash, and door panels trimmed in Cashmere leatherette. German charcoal square-weave carpets were installed, along with a new black canvas soft top, pad, headliner, and boot cover. Ventilated painted wheels with Super hubcaps are mounted to Michelin XZX 165 R15 tires. The undercarriage is fully detailed to show condition and is solid and rust-free.
European Collectibles acquired the 356 from the prior owner in 2021 and sold it to a repeat client who has enjoyed it during the summers in Park City, Utah, over the past five years. The past owner recently traded this 356B Cabriolet in to purchase a 356SC Cabriolet.
Mechanically powered by its matching 1600cc flat-four engine paired to the matching 4-speed manual transmission (Type 741) with four-wheel drum brakes. Complete with Porsche Production Specifications, owners manual, and spare tire. This Cabriolet represents one of the most enjoyable configurations for 356 open-air motoring, with the improved drivability, comfort, and refinement of the T6 body. An excellent opportunity to acquire a well-maintained 356B Cabriolet, presented in a desirable color combination and with a matching driveline.
