Benefiting from meticulous care, this 356C has received significant attention over recent years. Farland Classic Restoration performed a full exterior and undercarriage detail in 2021, followed by ceramic and hydrophobic coating. The same year, a full 3M clear film wrap was applied at a cost of $6,645. Later mechanical servicing by Rowe Performance in Colorado included a leak-down test (4% to 5% across all cylinders), Solex 40 PII-4 carburetors were installed, the rear flywheel seal was replaced, an electric fuel pump and a new engine sound pad were installed. Most recently, in May 2024, European Collectibles carried out further work, including new S-pipes, a brake master cylinder, the sunroof was serviced with new cables and seals installed, and the transmission was completely rebuilt with new bearings, gaskets, and seals.
