Porsche 356 Speedster Replica Left Hand Drive

Vintage Speedsters finish these cars down to the last detail ensuring a tremendous finish and attention to every aspect of build for a replica car. These cars are built using a 1960's VW Beetle chassis thus ensuring their original classic car status and as such are road tax exempt.

The fibreglass body is moulded from an original 1950's Speedster. which means the panel gaps and finish are nothing short of excellent.  

There are currently two companies that sell Vintage speedsters in the United Kingdom. McGurk Performance Cars and Oysternet International. which market these fantastic cars at between £26. 50 for RHD and £29. 95 for LHD

This Vintage Speedster was built around 1997 and imported to the UK in 2008 and I bought it shortly after it was imported. Owning this beautiful car has been a pleasure and I never thought I would sell this stunning vehicle. but it's time to make way for another project. Wherever you go it gets admiring glances and draws a crowd.  when parked it sparks conversations. whether just down the shops or at a car show.  

What sets this car apart from other Speedsters for sale. is that it has excellent panel fit and correct details. It's left hand drive. as 99% of the originals were and were exported for the California market. which has all those who see it convinced it's the 'real deal'. Since I bought the car I've spent £000's refining the little details and making it as close to the £150. 00 original as possible. this includes:

New CB performance adjustable front beam

New CB performance wide 5 disc brake conversion 

New 4. 5" chrome front wheels and tyres (Firestone F560)

New rear tyres (Firestone)

New inner door levers

New trunk carpet set. coco cover mats. luggage rack all supplied by Vintage Speedsters California (imported at great expense)

New leather luggage straps (imported from the United States)

Stainless steel exhaust with tail pipes supplied by Hoffman Speedsters Germany 

Camber compensator as fitted to the original Porsche 356 and limits the wheels tucking in at speed around corners 

Original Porsche 356A steering wheel and reproduction Flat 4 horn push - follow the link below to get an idea of the price of original Porsche steering wheels £1. 00+

So the quality. panel fit and details synonymous with Vintage Porsche Speedster Replicas as supplied by McGurk and Oysternet. but with the addition of the above finishing touches and that all important patina. making it indistinguishable from the real thing. but not at the £150. 00 price tag of the original or up to £29. 95 for a new Vintage Porsche Speedster. but for

£21. 00
