The bodywork was finished from the factory in Champagne Yellow (6405) and was repainted red in the mid-1980s. Exterior details include body-color bumpers with chrome guards, twin rear decklid grilles, a left side mirror, and gold Porsche and SC badging. Various chips and scratches are evident, as is pitting on the front bumper, guards, and windshield frame. The seller notes that the driver’s door does not sit flush with the body. The doors were repaired in 2023, and additional body repairs over the years are shown on receipts provided in the gallery.
Chrome-finished 15” wheels wear matching hubcaps and are mounted with 165/80 Nexen SB-802 tires. A full-size spare is found in the front storage area. Braking is via discs at all four corners, and the car rides on Koni red shock absorbers.
The front seats have been reupholstered in black leatherette and are joined by color-coordinated rear seats, door panels, and carpets. Appointments consist of a Bendix Sapphire II AM/FM radio, a black rubber floor mat, dual flip-down sun visors, and lap belts for front occupants.
A three-spoke steering wheel sits ahead of a body-color metal dashboard housing VDO instrumentation that includes an 8k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and a combination gauge. An oil pressure display is mounted in the center of the dash. The speedometer and tachometer were repaired in the early 1970s. The five-digit odometer shows approximately 70k miles, though total mileage is unknown.
The 1.6-liter flat-four is equipped with dual Weber carburetors and was rebuilt in the late 1970s. Recommissioning following removal from long-term storage in late 2022 consisted of an oil change, installation of a replacement battery, and a carburetor adjustment.
Engine stamping P☆710358☆ matches the number shown on the Kardex. A photo of the transaxle stamping is provided in the gallery below.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transaxle. The transmission fluid was changed in November 2022. Rust on the battery box floor is shown in the gallery, along with additional underbody images.
The copy of the Kardex lists factory colors and drivetrain serial numbers, along with delivery to Competition Motors and a production date of September 2, 1963.
