1957 Porsche 356A Coupe listed on eBay in Los Angeles, CA. Listing shows Manual transmission, Silver exterior. Asking price $52,500 on eBay.
What the photos show
- The body wears flat primer-grey with patchy pink-tinted areas and no shine, bumpers painted silver rather than chromed — budget for a full repaint and chrome work.
- Rust is bubbling along the sill bottoms and lower front wing in the side views — budget for metal repair before any paint.
- Red leather seats are worn and creased, and the rear seat area shows torn trim with stuffing exposed — budget for a full retrim.
- Dash and gauges are presentable up top, but the footwells below are rusty and dirty — budget for floor and bulkhead work.
- Engine bay is complete but grubby, with surface rust on the canisters and tired hoses — budget for a rebuild-level once-over.
- Front trunk is dirty with a stained tank and tired battery area — budget for cleaning and rust treatment there.
- Lift photos show heavy surface rust across the floor pans and front structure, with crude patch plates visible — budget the largest share of money for structural metal, exactly what these photos warn about.
Money: At $52,500 this is a restoration project in primer — torn trim, rusty sills and heavily rusted floors in the lift photos mean the money goes on metal first, so price it as a complete 356A shell, not a driver.
