ABOUT THIS VEHICLE

The 1959 model year marked the final year of production for the
Porsche 356A, making this Ruby Red example especially desirable among collectors and enthusiasts. Finished in Ruby Red (Paint Code 702), this three-owner 356A has spent its entire life on the West Coast and retains an exceptional level of originality.

At its heart is the matching-numbers air-cooled flat-four engine, paired with its matching-numbers transmission. Together, they deliver the lightweight, responsive driving experience that established Porsches reputation for engineering excellence. The rear-mounted engine, compact dimensions, and balanced chassis give the 356A the direct and engaging character for which these early Porsches remain so highly regarded.

Its originality extends throughout the vehicle, including the original floors, original seats, matching seatbelts, and original wheels datecoded 1958. The fuel-sending unit is date-coded April 1959, and the car is accompanied by its original tool kit an increasingly difficult component to find with surviving examples.

As a final-year 356A with limited ownership, lifelong West Coast history, a matching-numbers drivetrain, and numerous original and date-correct details, this Porsche offers an uncommon combination of authenticity, provenance, and classic driving character. It represents the culmination of the elegant 356A design immediately before Porsche introduced the succeeding 356B, making it a very desirable example of one of Porsches most iconic early sports cars.
