Vehicle description
This is a REPLICA of the beautiful timeless classic 1957 Porsche 356 hand crafted and built by Vintage Speedsters of Southern California.
Take this opportunity to own and drive one of the most iconic vehicles on the road today. No need to shelter this awesome vehicle in a museum or showroom this could be a daily driver in fair weather, its speedy nimble and so fun to drive. - - Turn heads and stop drivers as you pass by in timeless elegance of this vehicle.
We have enjoyed this vehicle ever time its been driven and marveled at its beauty whenever we open our garage door. I consider this the best and most elegant piece of art that we will ever own, yet we can fire it up a zip down the Pacific Coast Highway wind in our hair with reliability and near zero maintenance costs. Insurance is ridiculously cheap (AAA Classic Car) and parts unlikely needed are easily available. Yet to 99% of the population this is indistinguishable or better looking than the original and for 5% of the cost orf ownership and 1% of the annual running costs. This Model was built to be driven its not in showroom condition, it has very minor blemishes which disappear in deep black gloss gelcoat. Comes with both convertible cloth roof and clip in side panel windows, a full Tonneau cover and an additional smaller top boot. Twin Carbs, stainless steel air intakes, two seeing wheel options included; beautiful Vintage Nardi wood replica and a white 3 spoke, New Coco Mats
Sadly we must make way for our next project after nearly 10 years of ownership. Titled as a 1965 Volkswagen- Exempt from Smog testing

From the manufacturer: www.vintagespeedsters.com The speedster replica was born in the 1970’s. Early manufacturers used a shortened VW pan and did not adequately reinforce the body. This led to the infamous “jack test”. If one were to lift the car with a jack, due to the body flex, the car doors would no longer close properly. Vintage Speedsters engineered a new type of structure starting with our first speedster produced in 1988. Vintage Speedsters uses a custom built, jig welded, 2×4 inch 11-gauge steel frame. An original VW pan is restored, shortened and welded to the new steel skeleton. The rigid new structure retains the original VW pan design and integrates the largest frame possible. All of our custom built speedsters easily pass the “jack test”. In addition, the steering wheel is offset slightly, just as an original speedster. While some manufacturers will lead the customer to believe the use of a VW pan is inferior, it’s hard to argue with some facts.
1) Volkswagen produced over 21,000,000 cars using the pan design.
2) Vintage Speedsters hand built over 3300 speedsters as of 2016.
3) We build more than 90% of the speedsters being sold today. FAQ https:/ www.vintagespeedsters.com/options-2/
