The Porsche 356, the car that started it all for Stuttgart, evolved significantly through its production run, culminating in the B and C generations that refined Ferdinand Porsche’s original vision. Introduced in 1959, the 356B brought a host of improvements, including revised bodywork with higher bumpers and headlights, a redesigned dashboard, and enhanced braking. Within the 356B lineup, the Super 90 stood out as the performance variant, boasting a potent 1.6-liter flat-four engine producing 90 horsepower thanks to twin Solex carburetors, a higher compression ratio, and a more aggressive camshaft. This made the Super 90 a favorite among enthusiasts seeking a more spirited driving experience, bridging the gap between the standard models and the rare Carrera variants. This 1962 Porsche 356B Super 90 presents a compelling opportunity, offered as a numbers-matching example with a mere 7,663 miles shown on the odometer. While it is an ongoing restoration project, the most critical element—its original engine and transmission—remains intact, a significant factor for any collector. The car comes with a substantial inventory of parts to aid in its completion, and its interior is described as complete and usable, providing a strong foundation. Finished in an exceptionally desirable color combination, this Super 90 promises to be a stunning classic once brought to its full glory. This is a rare chance to complete the restoration of a numbers-matching 356B Super 90 in a truly special configuration.
