1959 Porsche 356A Speedster $16,500

(949) 637-8091
My intent was to create a "Preservation-Class Replication" Speedster, this is not like any other Speedster available anywhere. Unlike traditional builders I wanted my car to look like a "survivor" car a to come closest to the way they looked and functioned when new but have not been restored. Cars begin to deteriorate once they leave the factory and I wanted to create something that looked age appropriate. So I started with a factory built car (not a backyard build/ huge difference) the pan is excellent the fit and finish are a "10". The end result is a car that still cleans up and looks like a Million bucks standing still but has zero pretence, she attracts crowds wherever she is driven and tons of smiles and waives!

"Reliability": "A complete mechanical rehab was commissioned, currently less than 200 miles on Engine, Carbs, clutch!" Yes Freeway flyer 388 gears
1650 Dual Port 
German Balanced Pistons
Electronic Ignition
Dual 40mm Weber Carbs (rebuilt)

Many other new parts - Receipts 
Everything works on this Speedster- from the Driving lamps to the license plate lights!
