Early prices 356-001 changed hands for?
Karl Ludvigsen has a good story on 356-001 in Excellence (also on their website) but I wish he would have told the prices paid each time it sold for before Porsche realized their mistake and bought it back. He does have some, though. 'Preciate any prices if anyone has other stories ,more obcure.
Here's my list plucked from Ludvigsen's artice: 356-001’s first owner after Porsche was Riesbach Garage in Zürich. Josh Heintz, the garage’s owner, 7,000 Swiss francs—about $1,750—in September of 1948; Owner 2--Peter Kaiser, 7,500 francs—as more or less a favor to Heintz. Owner 3, to Zurich importer for 4,500 francs. Owner 4 Rosemarie Muff of Zürich acquired the Porsche for 10,000 francs. Owner 5 Hermann Schulthess bought for 3,000 francs, in 1951. Owner 6 Zürich baker _____(first name?) Igoris. Trade for his Porsche 356 1300 coupe Owner 7 Franz Blaser of Lachen, Switzerland no price named Owner 8 1958 Porsche factory traded for new Speedster If nyone has any od the missing prices, glad to hear them. I was surprised it took Porsche 10 years to realize their first 356 was important |
