Thinking about buying a 1954 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe? Youve come to the right place to learn valuable information. Owning a Porsche sports car from the 50s or 60s represents the dreams of many Porsche enthusiasts. These Porsches are loved for their simple mechanics; a competent home mechanic can easily maintain a 356. Nimble handling and responsive controls make the Porsche 356 a joy to drive! The first Porsche 356 dates back more than 60 years. After hand building a run of aluminum-bodied Porsche 356 prototypes, the company would set up their factory in 1950 to produce steel-bodied sports cars. While the first of these rear-engine Porsches were not fast, they had a distinct appeal that was based off of the VW of the era. Porsche would continue the 356 lineup for more than fifteen years before its retirement, with more than 76000 units being produced.

Looking to purchase a Classic Porsche?

Buying a 1954 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe can be very exciting. Thorough research and inspection are needed to ensure you are buying a true original and one that will likely hold its value. Be sure to have a 3rd party inspection performed by a knowledgeable mechanic and search for rust damage, as this is one of the main issues with the classic Porsche 356 models. Next, ask the sellers for a Certificate of Authenticity or to view the engine/chassis numbers so you can verify them with Porsche. Lastly, check for completeness. It should be noted that in many cases the Coupes are in better condition than the Cabriolets because they have seen less exposure to the elements.
