AI Listing Summary
This 1953 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe has been with the same owner for 38 years and features a refurbishment done in 2016. It includes an engine upgrade to a 1,850cc flat-four, front disc brakes, and a 12-volt electrical system.
Condition

The car has been refurbished, including a repaint and interior re-trim. However, there is mention of an area of corrosion on the underside of the passenger-side door, and the digital odometer reading is low, reflecting mileage since the refurbishment, suggesting it's not a complete frame-off restoration. Also has updated disc brakes and a 12 volt electrical system.
