Black dolphin: 1964 Porsche 356 C Coupé

Sometimes, it’s not necessary to have a six-figure budget to get your hands on a Porsche 356; you just need to look around carefully.

This particular car was originally finished in the rare and sought-after Dolphin Grey (code #6410). Dolphin Grey was a factory color available for only two years in Porsche’s storied history. This 356C has spent over 15 years in storage, preserving its original character and potential. The seller says that the body remains solid and straight, showcasing its original glass, rubbers, and bumpers. Despite some rust near the front pan and nose, it stands as a structurally sound, no-hit car—an excellent foundation for a passionate restoration project. Under the hood, you’ll find a period-correct 616/15 engine with serial number #731568. While it turns, it will need some attention to bring it back to its former glory. Complementing the engine is a matching transmission with serial number #83088.

As it sits, this 1964 Porsche 356C is poised for revival. With a little effort, it can be returned to driver condition, allowing you to enjoy the classic Porsche experience on the open road. Alternatively, it holds the potential to become a show-stopping custom build that turns heads and captures hearts at every car meet. This Porsche 356C comes with all the original parts intact, including the glass, rubbers, and bumpers, providing a solid foundation for any restoration path you choose. Find it for sale at $32,900 here in Las Vegas, NV.
