Convertible D Roadster
Coachwork: Drauz
Chassis Num: 86765
 
Built for just more than a year over 1958 and 1959, the Convertible D was Porsche's follow-up to the famed Speedster. It was considered a bit more 'grown up' than the Speedster; for example, a taller windshield and wind-up glass side windows contrasted with the Speedster's cut down windshield and side curtains. Bodies for the just over 1300 Convertible Ds were hand-built by the coachbuilder Drauz in Helbronn. Thus the 'D' moniker; 'Convertible Karosseriewerke Drauz' would have been a bit long.
