By far, most Porsche bodies were built by Reutter, of Stuttgart. Karosseriesfabrik Reutter & Co. had a long alliance with Porsche. Established in 1906, the firm was an early user of aluminum and also pioneered lightweight bodies using Weymann fabric patents. They had built prototypes for Ferdinand Porsche in 1932, for the genesis of the Volkswagen, and they also bodied BMWs and Mercedes in the thirties. When the Porsche Company returned to Germany from Austria in 1950, Reutter leased them some factory space for car production, and they built the early bodies, including coupes, cabriolets and speedsters.

This restored Porsche 356B Coupe is presented in black, a very desirable color. The black paint is accented by factory chrome wheels, and polished trim all around the car. The interior contrasts the exterior by being finished in red. The seats are upholstered with vinyl and the dashboard is adorned with VDO instrumentation including a tachometer. The Coupe is powered by the famous 1,600-cc flat four-cylinder engine that is married to a smooth shifting four-speed manual transmission.

This is a very unique opportunity to own a very desirable Porsche 356B Coupe bodied by Reutter, in very desirable colors.
