Used 1957 Porsche 356A Speedster Tribute

--Ivory with Red Leather Upholstery, Black Folding soft top. Black top boot, 1.6 Liter Twin plug Engine, 4 Speed Manual gearbox, documented 6 year restoration and custom conversion completed in 2019.

Starting with a clean 356A Coupe the entire car was completely disassembled and utilizing combination of steel and aluminum body panels was converted to Carrera GT Speedster homage. No stone was left unturned during this process and continued through to the interior and mechanically. The interior received speedster solid back buckets, Square weave carpeting, Black rubber mats, red lap belts, Nardi wooden steering wheel, VDO instruments including a central 8k-rpm tachometer, a 120-mph speedometer, and a combination gauge monitoring oil temperature and fuel level, Carrera-style twin ignition coil switches flank the tachometer. Mechanically the upgrades, again, were plentiful including but not limited to the following, 1.6-liter flat-four that was rebuilt with a conversion to twin-plug ignition by Willison Werkstatt and is dressed to simulate the appearance of a period Carrera GS/GT four-cam engine, a dual-mount Type 741 four-speed manual transaxle, a front-mounted oil cooler, a full-flow oil filter, a 356 Enterprises camber regulator, GT-style 60mm drum brakes, Tecnomagnesio alloy wheels with Pirelli Cinturato tires and 12 volt conversion.

There maybe no substitute but there are definite tributes that check all the boxes as this one surely does. Ready for immediate use and enjoyment for a fraction of the price of a 356 Carrera GT or if one was to attempt to build one today in the same manner.
