The 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupe is a classic sports car that is highly regarded by enthusiasts and collectors alike. This iconic car is a symbol of the golden age of sports car design and engineering, and it remains one of the most sought-after vehicles of its era.

The 356 C Coupe was the last model in the Porsche 356 series, which began production in 1948. The Porsche 356 is Porsche's first production sports car. The last revision of the 356 was the 356 C introduced for the 1964 model year. It featured disc brakes all around, as well as the most powerful pushrod engines. Production of the 356 C came to 14.151 cars in 1964, the year that its successor, the new 911, was introduced. The company continued to sell the 356 C in North America through 1965 as demand for the model remained quite strong in the early days of the heavier and more "civilized" 911. The 356 C Coupe was powered by a 1.6-liter, four-cylinder engine that produced 75 horsepower and 123 Nm of torque. This may not sound like much by today’s standards, but at the time, it was a powerful engine that provided excellent performance.

The exterior of the 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupe was designed with classic Porsche styling cues. It had a sleek and aerodynamic profile with rounded headlights, a distinctive hood, and a sloping roofline. The 356 C Coupe also had a chrome strip that ran along the bottom of the body, which gave the car a stylish and elegant look.

The interior of the 356 C Coupe was simple and functional, yet stylish. The cockpit was designed with the driver in mind, with all the gauges and controls within easy reach. The seats were supportive and comfortable.

The 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupe was a joy to drive. It had precise handling and excellent feedback, which allowed drivers to feel connected to the road. The suspension was well-tuned and provided a comfortable ride, even on rough roads. The brakes were also powerful and provided excellent stopping power.

Today, the 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupe is highly sought-after by collectors and enthusiasts. Its classic styling, excellent performance, and legendary handling make it a true icon of the sports car world. Prices for a well-maintained example can range from 80.000 EUR to 150.000 EUR depending on its condition and mileage. If you have the opportunity to drive one, you will not be disappointed. The 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupe is a true masterpiece of automotive engineering that will always hold a special place in the hearts of sports car enthusiasts.

This 1964 Porsche 356C coupe was built in September 1964 and acquired by the last owner approximately 28 years ago. Finished in original colour of Dolphin Grey over red leatherette, the car is powered by a numbers-matching 1.6-litre flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Equipment includes a 12-volt electrical system, an aftermarket exhaust, KYB shocks, a wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel, rear luggage rack, and four-wheel disc brakes. Fluid changes were performed in preparation for the sale, and additional work carried out during last ownership included a repaint, interior refreshment, rebuilt Dellorto carburetors, and a replacement clutch. This 356 C coupe is now offered with a Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, a partial set of tools in a leatherette bag, manuals, an uninstalled front bra, spare parts, service records beginning in 1983, and a clean New Mexico title in the last registered owner’s name.
Finished from the factory in Dolphin Grey (6410), the body received a two-stage repaint and the front hood hinges were replaced. Equipment includes a retractable antenna, body-colored bumpers with polished overriders, and a chrome rear luggage rack. The trunk floor was replaced during current ownership due to rust, and the seller notes previous repairs with evidence of body filler in the front fenders, driver’s door, and lower front fascia.
The polished 15” steel wheels feature matching hubcaps with colored Porsche crests and are wrapped in 165-width Michelin XZX tires that were installed since the photos were taken. The seller states that the master cylinder and wheel cylinders have been rebuilt, and the brake fluid was changed in April 2021. Additional maintenance during last ownership has included the installation of a replacement steering damper, coupler joint, and KYB shocks. The removed Koni shocks are included in the sale.
Originally trimmed in black leather, the cabin was refreshed by Autos International of Escondido, California and features bucket seats with headrests reupholstered in red leatherette along with a gray dash pad, door panels, and square-weave carpets lined with a black rubber floor mat. Replacement speakers and an auxiliary cable have been installed and it comes with a Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio. Two aftermarket headrests and additional red leatherette material accompany the vehicle.
A wood-rimmed Moto-Lita steering wheel with a Porsche crest center cap sits ahead of a matte black-painted metal dashboard housing VDO instrumentation. An oil pressure gauge has been fitted in place of the outside temperature display, though the removed unit is included in the sale. The five-digit odometer shows just over 74k miles, around 19k of which have been added during last registrated ownership, the total mileage should be accurate.
The air-cooled 1.600 ccm flat-four has been overhauled and is equipped with twin Dellorto carburetors that were rebuilt in 2017. The electrical system has been converted to 12-volts, and an upgraded starter motor, a PerTronix distributor, and an aftermarket Abarth-style sport exhaust system have also been installed. An oil change was performed in January 2021.
Engine stamping *715188* shown in the gallery matches the number displayed on the Certificate of Authenticity provided also in the gallery. The transmission number (81926) is also matching.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transaxle that was fitted with a replacement clutch, throwout bearing, fork, cable, and shifter bushings. Undercoating has been applied to the chassis. The Porsche Certificate of Authenticity shows the factory colors, optional equipment, and identification numbers.
