Wherever I take this car people always ask questions about it and even take their pictures in front of it! It’s definitely a head-turner with a “one of a kind” feel. Titled as a 1969 VW from its donor floor pan the car has just under 7500 miles on it with less than 650 miles on the new motor!
Hand built by Vintage Speedsters in 2007 this low mileage one owner Porsche 356 Flared Fender Replica runs as great as it looks! The engine transaxle fuel system (with an electric NOT mechanical fuel pump) and exhaust have all been upgraded from the “factory equipment” to its present day configuration.
The 2.4L high performance motor was assembled built and tuned by Aaron at Bob Hindson Racing in Kansas City MO. The close ratio 3.88 transaxle was assembled and built by Mark at Strictly Foreign in Grants Pass OR. The turbocharger fuel system (fed with a Holley 500cfm carb) and exhaust were all custom fit by A. J. Sims in Orange CA. Its sporty trailing arm suspension and Nexen tires grab the road with low profile 225/45ZR17’s in front and 255/40ZR17’s in back nearly a foot wide! And the wheels are 5 bolt polished aluminum.
This 356 has front disc/rear drum brakes. The stock oil filter has been replaced with a canister mounted MOBIL ONE filter that sits tucked away behind the driver’s side rear tire. Behind the passenger side rear tire sits the thermostatically controlled external oil cooler. And in your hands as you drive is a genuine Nardi wood steering wheel.
The Black paint is in great condition with very minor normal use wear. The car has never been wrecked or had any repair work done to its fiberglass body. The tan top is in perfect condition (and comes with side curtains) should you ever decide to drive with it up!
The interior is a tan leatherette and it has an original style Speedster Gauge set up with Reproduction VDO Gauges and a detachable faced AM/FM CD Stereo. And the perfect fitting coconut front floor mats will keep the carpet protected for years to come!
