Every once in a while, we get a car that excels in all categories, from an exceptional restoration, to incredible drivability, and exceptional documentation. We are proud to present the nicest 356SC Cabriolet that has come through our doors in a very long time. This car benefitted from an extensive, in depth $155K restoration performed by marque specialists Club Sport Racing in Florida, which is documented with each and every invoice for the process. The car was stripped to bare metal and repainted in its factory Red, and the interior was completely reupholstered with new correct materials. The interior presents as new and all the gauges work, including the clock. This is a matching numbers and colors car including both its Certificate of Authenticity and Kardex. This 356SC has perfect panel gaps, and the paint maintains a glass-like mirror finish all around. The black soft top is new and in excellent condition, with a matching black boot cover. The car benefits from a modern day, vintage style radio providing modern connectivity such as auxiliary, USB and iPhone inputs, as well as Bluetooth, while maintaining a period correct appearance. The speakers have also been updated including the addition of a removable set of speakers, providing great sound without requiring intrusive work, allowing the vehicle to quickly and easily be returned to its original form if desired. . The car has driven less than 3500 miles since the restoration and was recently serviced in 2020 including a brake service and a carb tune up. This European spec 356SC starts up with ease and is a joy to drive, thanks to the matching numbers transmission and engine which were both rebuilt during the restoration in 2013-2016. The engine bay is highly detailed with all correct decals and stickers. The underside is so clean you could eat off of it, and the car has absolutely no rust anywhere. We recently re-acquired this 356SC after selling it to a fastidious 356 Collector owner after multiple years of ownership and care. This owner put about 2500 miles on the car, and had the original carburetors rebuilt by the famed 356 Carburetor Rescue, which recently announced the closing of their business. These rebuilt carburetors come in a box with the car, and the set currently installed on the car is in perfect tune. This 356SC is ready to be enjoyed by its new owner and includes Restoration Records, Period Service Records, Tool Kit + Jack, Manuals, Spare Wheel, Top Cover, and service manuals.
