Porsche connoisseurs recognize that the 356 C 1600 SC is one of the finest 356s to enjoy on the open road, and this wonderfully restored Cabriolet has been specified seemingly with thrilling driving in mind.

Mortimer Shapiro, via Ben Pon’s Automobielhandel distributorship in Holland.
According to its factory Kardex, a letter from Porsche Classic, and Certificate of Authenticity, it was fitted with a Type 616/16 air-cooled 1,582-cubic-centimeter four-cylinder engine with dual carburetors rated at 95 horsepower.
