1956 356 Speedster


Up for auction is one of the coolest Porsche 356 Speedster replicas on the market.  This car demands attention!  I’ve owned tons of classic cars and this one gets more looks, pictures, thumbs up, waves, ect than any car I have ever had.  It is an absolute blast to dive!

The 356 was built by Intermeccanica, who make some of the highest quality replicas on the market.  The car has a very original look and feel to it.  In 2012 the car was given a professional restoration and  a complete drivetrain upgrade.  The paint was redone in a base coat / clear coat and looks great!  It was wet sanded and polished to a mirror like finish.  This is a well built car with nice fit and finish, the door and trunk open and close well, the top fits well, ect. 

 The interior has been redone in all black and looks great.  The seats and door panels were profrsionally refinished and have a very nice look and feel.  New German square weave carpet was installed.  The car has a nice sounding stereo.  Mesh headlight covers were added along with leather trunk hold down straps.  There is a small crack on the windshield.  It has working horn, tach, speedo, fuel gauge, wipers, temp gauge, all lights and blinkers.  A cigarette lighter was added to charge your phone.  A set of Crow Enterprize racing belts were added.

The car has all 3 tops, including the boot, a complete cockpit tonneau cover which opens on the drivers side.  A brand new black stayfast canvas top was installed and looks really nice.  The car comes with a set of removable side windows.

The smoothie wheels are powdercoated to match the car and the brand new Coker wide whitewall tires really set the car off.

This car doesn’t just look better than all the other speedster replicas, its also outperforms most as well.  No expense was spared on the motor.  It’s a full flowed 2175 with dual Webers, a full 911 fan and shroud conversion ($2000 option), billet valve covers, billet air breathers, steel braded lines, adjustable fuel pressure regulator, performance clutch, and a ceramic coated merged header and exhaust system.  This little car runs!  It sounds mean also. There is over $10000 invested in the drive train. 

The underside of the car is extremely solid and looks nice!  It received new shocks, new bushings, a rear sway bar was added.  It has an adjustable front beam and the ride height can be changed fairly easily. 

I have a clean and clear title for the car. The numbers on the VIN tag match the numbers on the title. 

I have owned quite a few 356 replicas from every manufacture, along with some real steel bodied 356s, and this is by far my favorite.  This car runs and drives great, it needs nothing and is ready to enjoy.  Lots of money has been spent making this speedster look and run like it does.  This car is an absolute thrill to drive and own.  Hands down the most fun you can have and most attention you get for under $30k!

 

I have been selling on Ebay for 14 years. And have sold many classic cars and trucks with 100% positive feedback.   I am very picky with my cars. I know what I am looking at and know how to accurately describe them.  I have many happy buyers all around the world, and can provide references if needed.

Possible trades considered, email me with what you have.

I reserve the right to end this listing at any time.  If you’re a serious buyer, call me and make an offer.  This car is available for purchase today! I can be reached at 314-393-0565. Please read the entire listing before calling. .

Hyundai, Porsche top J.D. Power APEAL study

Thu, Jul 24 2014

Just as they did in the Initial Quality Study, Porsche and Hyundai have taken the premium and non-premium crown, respectively, for the 2014 J.D. Power APEAL study. This is the tenth consecutive year for that Porsche has been rated the best premium make in the APEAL study, which attempts to figure out how pleased owners are with their purchases. For 2014, it asked 86,000 owners of MY2014 cars to rate their vehicles in 77 different categories 90 days after their initial purchase. The resulting figures were plugged in deliver the APEAL score, which is rated on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average sits at 794 points for 2014, although that's a one-percent decline over last year's rating. In this year's study, premium brands averaged 840 out of 1,000, while non-premium makes average 785. For their part, Porsche netted an impressive 882 points, while Hyundai earned an 804. Interestingly, only four non-premium brands (Hyundai, Ram, Volkswagen and Mini) finished above the industry average for 2014. It's also interesting to see the clear delineation between premium and non-premium brands, with an eight-point gap between the non-premium champ, Hyundai, and the lowest-rated premium brand, Volvo. Porsche and Hyundai weren't the only automakers to take home recognition. Dodge managed to tie Porsche for the most segment awards, with three. The Challenger, Charger and Dart all topped their market. There were a number of two-segment winners, as well, with Audi, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan capturing a pair of segments each. Scroll down for the full press release from JD Power on this year's winners. Automakers Struggle to Impress Owners with Increased Usefulness of In-Vehicle Technologies And Features on All-New and Redesigned Models Dodge and Porsche Each Receive Three Segment-Level Awards; Audi, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan Each Receive Two WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 23 July 2014 - Although manufacturers are putting more and more technologies and functionality in their new and redesigned models, satisfaction with these features is not significantly higher among owners of those models than among owners of carryover models, according to the J.D. Power 2014 U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) StudySM released today. The APEAL Study, now in its 19th year, serves as the industry benchmark for new-vehicle appeal. Owners evaluate their vehicle across 77 attributes, which combine into an overall APEAL score that is measured on a 1,000-point scale.

Porsche in Paul Walker fatal accident was traveling over 100 mph before crash

Fri, 03 Jan 2014

The Porsche Carrera GT involved in the November crash that killed Fast and Furious star Paul Walker and racer Roger Rodas was traveling at speeds above 100 miles per hour before Rodas lost control for "unknown reasons," according to a report from the Los Angeles County Coroner's Office that has been acquired by The Hollywood Reporter.
Once control was lost, the Porsche spun, hit a curb and then impacted a tree and a light post, then it spun 180 degrees and hit another tree before erupting in flames, the report said. Neither Walker nor Rodas were under the influence of any drugs or alcohol at the time of the incident, according to toxicology reports conducted by the coroner.
As for the future of the Fast and Furious franchise, a separate by The Hollywood Reporter claims director James Wan, writer Chris Morgan and Universal Studios will move forward with the seventh installment in the franchise, which was only partially completed when Walker was killed.

$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
