On the outside, the C series and the B series looked identical. The reworked wheels stood out, featuring flatter hub caps devoid of the Porsche Crest. Since disc brakes are now standard on all 356 variants, the redesign of the hub caps was inevitable. A spherical outside mirror was another characteristic of the B type.
In May of 1966, the final Porsche 356 C was delivered.
As far as restored vintage cars go, this one is in excellent condition. All systems are operational and functioning well. On Sundays and when I have events, I drive it around town. Cars are fun for me to drive and enjoy. The engine is not compatible. Is a 100-horsepower, 2 liter engine from a 1965 Porsche 912.
