This 1964 Porsche 356C coupe has been repainted blue over tan upholstery and is powered by a replacement 1,720cc flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes 15″ steel wheels, disc brakes, LED headlights, and a digital radio. The selling dealer acquired the car in 2020, and work in preparation for the sale involved rebuilding the carburetors, performing a valve adjustment, rebuilding the ignition switch, and installing a gear reduction starter. This 356C coupe is now offered in Arizona by the selling dealer, a BaT Local Partner, with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, a copy of the Kardex, a tool kit, the owner’s manual, a receipt from the recent service, and a clean Texas title, listing it as a 1965 model year.
This Karmann-built body came finished from the factory in Champagne Yellow and was repainted blue around 2015. LED headlights have also been added.
The 15″ steel wheels are mounted with Galaxy tires measuring 165R15. The car was factory equipped with disc brakes at each corner, and Koni shocks are installed.
The interior has been reupholstered, and the front bucket seats and rear jump seats are trimmed in tan. Interior appointments include a body-color painted dashboard, a cabin heater, lap belts, a vintage-look digital radio, Coco floor mats, and an analog clock.
The three-spoke steering wheel features a bright horn ring and frames VDO instrumentation that is said to have been rebuilt, consisting of a central tachometer with a 5,200-rpm redline as well as a 120-mph speedometer and a combination gauge for oil temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 1k miles.
The replacement flat-four was sourced from a 1963 356C and is said to have been built by Mayo Performance to displace 1,720cc using Shasta Design 86mm pistons and cylinders, a NeuTek SX1 camshaft, and Shasta Design connecting rods. A full-flow oil system with an aluminum cooler has been added. Work in preparation for the sale by Beck’s European of Scottsdale, Arizona included rebuilding the carburetors, performing a valve adjustment, fabricating a battery mount, rebuilding the ignition switch, replacing the ignition points and condenser, and installing a high-torque gear reduction starter.
Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle. The left axle boot was replaced in October 2026.
The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity shows factory colors and equipment as well as a build date of August 19, 1964. A copy of the Kardex is viewable in the gallery.
