1959 Sunroof Coupe


Tom Martinez
  
I found this sunroof coupe in a dust garage as 20 year stalled restoration project. I was going to re-sell it until I got the COA from Porsche. I turns out this was a heavily optioned car, but unfortunately most of the goodies are MIA. I now plan on restoring it someday. Here are the COA details.
  • Silver with Red upholstery and corduroy inserts
  • Super engine # 83419
  • Golde sunroof
  • 80 liter tank
  • Headrests
  • Radio
  • Antenna
  • Chrome wheels
  • Michelin tires
  • Bosch Power train control system (this is an in-dash amp gauge with a
    factory toggle switch)
  • Carrera pedal (apparently a heavy duty clutch)

This car was obviously a special order car — perhaps set up for long distance touring and heavy electrical loads? Someone also correctly louvered the original deck lid just like the 59 Carrera's.

Best Regards,
Tom Martinez, Lake Arrowhead Ca.
