Description of 1962 Porsche 356B Notchback

I am pleased to offer this 1962 Porsche 356B/1600 S T6 Karmann Notchback hardtop. This car is presented in its original color combination of black with red leatherette. VIN # 202248. Mileage shows 82,XXX but exact mileage is unknown.
Current owner has owned the car for approx. 10+ years and notes that it's the best driving 356 that he has ever owned (and he has owned many). "Powerful, straight and drives like a champ".
This magnificent 356B notchback coupe featured here is fitted with many options including luggage rack and reproduction Rudge knockoff wheels as well as repro tool kit. This investment grade numbers matching 356B notchback has been beautifully restored by Porsche specialists in 2010 and then repainted to original color combination some time afterwards.
Some history: A unique “Karmann hardtop” or “notchback” 356 B model was produced in 1961 and 1962. The 1961 production run (T5) was essentially a cabriolet body with the optional steel cabriolet hardtop welded in place. The 1962 line (T6 production) was a very different design in that the new T6 notchback coupé body did not start life as a cabriolet, but with its own production design—In essence, part cabriolet rear end design, part T6 coupé windshield frame, unique hard top. Both years of these unique cars have taken the name “Karmann notchback”.
