Description
1,582cc OHV Flat 4-Cylinder
Engine Twin Zenith Carburetors 75bhp at 5,200rpm 4-Speed Manual Transaxle 4-Wheel Independent Suspension 4-Wheel Disc Brakes *Matching numbers *Delivered new to Brumos in Jacksonville, Florida *First 356 model with disc brakes *Porsche Certificate of Authenticity THE PORSCHE 356C Cabriolets had been manufactured right from the start of 356 production, but the first open Porsche to make a significant impact was the Speedster, introduced in 1954 following the successful reception in the USA of a batch of 15 special roadsters.

Porsche sub-contracted cabriolet body construction to a number of different coachbuilders, Reutter undertaking the bulk of production with significant contributions from Karmann of Osnabruck, Drauz of Heilbronn and d'leteren of Brussels.
