This 1965 Porsche 356C coupe was purchased new in November 1964 from Lew Florence Motors in Yakima, Washington, and was acquired by the seller in 2015. The car is finished in Irish Green over a black vinyl interior and is powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four with twin Weber carburetors paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes Deist seat belts, chrome bumpers with guards, Bilstein shocks, slotted disc brakes, and 15″ vented steel wheels. The car was reportedly repainted in the 2000s, and an oil change was performed in preparation for the sale.
Delivered new in Irish Green (6406), the car was reportedly repainted under previous ownership in 2005. 356 Registry grille badges are fitted at the rear, and additional equipment includes chrome mirrors, chrome bumpers with guards, and pop-out rear quarter windows. The seller notes that the floor pan and battery pan are replacements, and modifications include a headlight relay kit, a Top Serve third brake light, and H4 headlights with powder-coated backing plates.
The 15″ vented steel wheels with polished hubcaps are mounted on wheel studs said to be sourced from a 911. They are wrapped with 185/65 Sumitomo HTR H4 tires. A jack is included in the sale, and a spare wheel with an Arizonian tire is stored in the front trunk. The car features a Willhoit 17.5mm front sway bar along with Bilstein shocks, and the brake system has been upgraded with slotted rotors at all four corners.
The cabin features black vinyl-upholstered seats joined by a matching dash pad and door panels along with gray square-weave carpets protected by black rubber flooring. Equipment includes a VDO analog clock, a Halon fire extinguisher, and Deist three-point front seat belts.
The three-spoke steering wheel wears a Porsche horn button and fronts green-letter VDO instrumentation including a centrally mounted 6k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and a combination gauge. Just under 95k miles are shown on the five-digit odometer, approximately 100 of which were added by the seller. Total mileage is unknown.
The 1.6-liter flat-four is fitted with Weber 40mm carburetors and was reportedly rebuilt in 1986. It is said to feature SC exhaust valves, an oil cooler, a balanced flywheel, and a replacement muffler, clutch disc, and throwout bearing. The car is equipped with a six-volt electric priming fuel pump and a starter relay kit, and recent maintenance included an oil and filter change.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transaxle.
An Automobile Sales Order from Lew Florence Motors in Yakima, Washington, shows the factory color, aLessories, and chassis and engine numbers along with a total cash price of $4,598. A car cover is also included in the sale along with a driver’s manual, ownership records, and service records.
