AI Listing Summary
This 1962 Porsche 356B Cabriolet, a 55-years-family-owned project car, sold for $92,500. It features a 1.6-liter flat-four engine, a four-speed manual transaxle, and a brown leather interior but requires significant mechanical and cosmetic work, including addressing issues with the engine, brakes, and electrical system.
Condition
4
The car is a running and driving project with several mechanical and cosmetic issues. Cosmetically, the paint was redone in 2011 but there are issues like dry-rotted tires and a dry-rotted axle boot. Mechanically, the wipers and washer squirters don't work, the engine idles poorly and stalls, the carburetors are weeping, and the engine mounts are failing. The front suspension is loose, and the left rear brake showed resistance. It has had some restoration but requires substantial reconditioning.
