Legendary Porsche-Designed Type 64 Up For Auction

The Type 64 was designed by Professor Ferdinand Porsche to compete in the 1939 Berlin-Rome race. Porsche can trace back its origin to the very first 356 ever built over seven decades ago, but some argue that the Porsche timeline actually stretches back further. Commissioned to design and build a car for the 932-mile Berlin-Rome race of September 1939, Professor Ferdinand Porsche created a car known only as the Type 64.
