This 1964 Porsche 356SC Karmann coupe is a numbers-matching and thoroughly restored example presented in the classic and period-correct color combination of Ruby Red with black interior. The 1964-65 model years represented the final evolution of the 356 model. With that evolution came the highest specific output pushrod 4-cylinder engine ever available from Porsche. The SC engine produced 15 percent more horsepower than the standard C engine and featured a stouter counter-weighted crankshaft, short skirt pistons, a more radical camshaft configuration and large Solex carburetors. This generation of Porsche also featured 4-wheel disc brakes and the SC came with Koni shocks as standard equipment. Prior to the final two years of production, the majority of the bodies for the 356 were constructed by Reutter with the remaining coachwork subcontracted out to other Karosserie such as Karmann, D’Ieteren and Drauz. In May of 1964, Porsche purchased Reutter and retained its services for seat design and manufacturing purposes, but sent coachwork to Karmann. Hence, this body is a 356SC Karmann coupe—but not to be confused with the Karmann coupes which were of notchback design that were produced in 1961-62. This 356 coupe has undergone a recent and comprehensive restoration including a bare-shell respray in the original color, replacement of all rubber trim and the brightwork polished. The suspension, brakes and steering components each were rebuilt. The interior received a new headliner, new carpet and new seat leatherette installed. This 356 comes with a number of desirable options including a chrome horn ring, luggage straps, factory Blaupunkt radio with antenna and loudspeakers and chrome wheels and hubcaps. Also included is the driver’s manual, tool roll, jack, matching spare tire and both a factory-issued Kardex and Certificate of Authenticity.
