PORSCHE 356 SPARE PARTS:
Original used components for your classic car

Welcome to the Porsche 356 used spare parts section, a treasure trove of original parts for enthusiasts and restorers of this iconic model that started the Porsche legend. Since 1997, Vintage Toys has been selling spare parts for all 356 models and for all restoration needs.


THE IMPORTANCE OF ORIGINAL PORSCHE 356 SPARE PARTS


The restoration and maintenance of a Porsche 356 requires components that respect the technical characteristics and the technical and aesthetic reliability of the original model. Some spare parts that are no longer available on the market are faithfully reproduced or sold used as originals from the period. This is often the only solution to maintain the originality of these historic cars, especially when it comes to components that are no longer in production or difficult to reproduce with the same quality.

Our catalog includes components for all versions of the 356 produced from 1951 to 1965, from the rare “Pre-A” to the most recent 356C. We offer mechanical parts, electrical components, bodywork elements, interior finishes and much more.

RARE PARTS FOR SPECIFIC VERSIONS

The Porsche 356 has undergone numerous evolutions during its production cycle, each with different technical features. Our inventory includes:

  • Exclusive components for 356 “Pre-A”, which are extremely rare on today’s market
  • Spare parts for the different versions A-T1, A-T2, B-T5, B-T6, C and SC in both the Coupé and Cabriolet versions
  • Unique parts for special models such as Speedster, Convertible D and Roadster

Our experience and decades-long passion for these cars allows us to quickly identify any request you may have.


PORSCHE 356: AUTHENTICITY AND VALUE


For the most demanding owners and collectors, using original Porsche 356 parts is essential to preserve the value and authenticity of the car. Original Porsche 356 spare parts have unique characteristics that modern reproductions cannot always faithfully replicate:

The quality of the materials and workmanship of the time gives original spare parts mechanical and aesthetic properties that are impossible to duplicate. The production techniques used in the 1950s and 1960s created components with a particular resistance and perfection that only vintage parts can offer. Furthermore, the markings, production codes and finishing details present on original spare parts are essential elements for a meticulous restoration.

ORIGINAL MECHANICAL COMPONENTS: THE HEART OF YOUR 356

The air-cooled boxer engine and transmission of the Porsche 356 are a masterpiece of engineering that deserves components that are up to par. Our inventory of original mechanical parts for Porsche 356 includes:

Crankshafts and every other part as visible in the cross-sections on our site.
