Before the onset of the World War II in 1939, Dr. Ferdinand Porsche designed and built three Type 64 cars for a Berlin to Rome race in 1939 that was never run. Not until after the war and a few years of needed rebuilding to German infrastructure was the next Porsche automobile built, a mid-engine tubular chassis prototype called āNo. 1.ā This has led to some debate among devotees as to the āfirstā Porsche automobile, but the 356 is considered by Porsche to be its first production model. Its reputation as a lightweight and nimble handling rear-engine rear-wheel-drive two-door sports car available in Coupe and Cabriolet configurations with a reliable power-train led Porsche to a resounding success from start to finish. In addition, design innovations continued during the years of manufacture contributing to its motorsports success and popularity.Ā
In developing the 356, Dr. Porsche created the cornerstone of the iconic company that would bear his name; though leaving the business in the hands of son āFerry,ā he remained the patriarch of a race-winning model lineage until his death. Production of the firmās first automobile began in the late 1940s, with the first 50 cars having been built almost entirely by hand and initially relying heavily on Volkswagen components. Ferryās 356 had an integral body and chassis that utilized unitary construction techniques rather than placing the body on a frame. From the start, Porsche sales outstripped even Dr. Porscheās most optimistic sales forecasts, and with increased sales came opportunities to build more and more of the 356 in-house (as opposed to having them built by ReutterĀ Coachworks), as well as the chance to expand the model range.Ā
