It was delivered to the first owner, Mr. Jack Brumby, in La Canada, California. Original components include date-coded chrome seat brackets, date-coded fuel tank, date-coded sending unit, and original Lemmerz spare wheel.

Mechanically, this 1600cc pushrod engine (Type 616/39) with Solex P40 dual carburetors runs excellent with plenty of power, paired with a manual 4-speed transmission (Type 644) and a four-wheel hydraulic drum braking system. European Collectibles did a full service, including an engine-out service, full detail, a new clutch kit, a rear main seal, a balanced flywheel, and a new pressure plate. New Vredestein Sprint Classic 165 R 15 tires are mounted to 15” painted steel wheels with Baby Moon hub caps. The undercarriage and suspension have been stripped to steel and fully detailed to show condition. This is an excellent opportunity to purchase a 356A Coupe that is ready to enjoy in a classic color combination in excellent cosmetic and mechanical condition that is solid and rust-free.
