About this car
The body was built by Reutter, a coachbuilder that was purchased by Porsche in 1963. Pascha Red is the original factory color and was offered from 1951 to 1953. Offered by Gullwing Motor Cars in Astoria, NY. This 1951 1951 Porsche 356 Pre-A Split Window Cabriolet is listed at $375,000.
What the photos show
- Deep maroon paint is glossy and even on every panel in the outdoor photos, and the doors and rounded fenders line up cleanly — no paint or body budget from these photos.
- Chrome bumpers, trim and moon hubcaps are bright with no visible pitting or dents in the photos — no chrome budget from these photos.
- Tan leather seats and door panels look smooth and unmarked in the interior photo, and the painted dash and gauges present cleanly — no interior retrim budget from these photos.
- The convertible top is only shown folded under its tan boot, so the top fabric itself cannot be judged from these photos — budget an inspection, not a top, until you see it raised.
- Engine bay in the rear photo is tidy and detailed, with clean tinware and no visible oil mess — no engine-bay detailing budget from these photos, though photos cannot speak to how it runs.
Money: the photos suggest no cosmetic spend — the only open item is seeing the folded top raised before you price one in.
