Known History
The car came to Texas with the previous owner in 1982 and has been serviced at the same shop since. In about 1985 the owner started a restoration. The current owner purchased the car during the restoration and finished it in 1988 (replacing his other 356). He found the air conditioning in his 928S4 more suited to south Texas and the 356 was rarely driven.
Modifications
Electric fuel pump
