Buying a 1950 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe

1950 Porsche 356 Pre-A CoupeThe unusually rare 1950 Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe was the hallmark of Porsche’s 50th anniversary. These sleek and diminutive steel bodied vehicles were the first German-produced 356 ‘split-window’ coupe and marked a new era in styling and design. Only forty-three of these cars were hand-built during 1949 to 1950 and the 356 was the first vehicle produced in the new Porsche location in Stuttgart. By November of 1950, only eighty cars were being crafted per month. The 1950 model uses the VW 1086cc engine with the Porsche cylinder head. The engine is a Porsche modified, 1.1 liter, air-cooled, rear-mounted flat-four with non-synchro four speed. Even in 1950, the demand for the Porsche 356 Pre-A Coupe was greater than the company was able to deliver. A challenge to locate on the classic car market, this was the first production car to bear the legendary name of Porsche. Have no doubt that there are buyers waiting for this highly prized vehicle. If you’re thinking about buying a 1950 Porsche 356, you understand the appeal.
