A 1963 Porsche 356 B Super 90 Coupé, originally supplied to the American market via the Brumos dealership in Jacksonville, Florida, and acquired by a naval aviator stationed at Cecil Field. The car's earlier American history remains untraced. In 2020 it was purchased by Norwegian restorer AH Classic Cars, which carried out a comprehensive, period-correct refurbishment returning the car to its factory Black over Black specification, with a fully rebuilt engine, gearbox, and running gear. A Porsche Certificate of Authenticity and factory Kardex sheet accompany the car.
