Description

1956 Porsche Speedster Cream with Butterscotch Interior Chassis No. 82775 Engine No. P*65338* Black Plate California Car We are pleased to offer this mechanically and cosmetically restored Porsche Speedster. Having remained in California for the majority of its life, this extremely straight and tight example has benefited from Californias temperate climate. The current owner bought this car in Southern California with much of the cosmetic restoration already competed. During his ownership he commissioned a comprehensive mechanical restoration with German Competition Motors in Hayward, CA, who rebuilt the motor, brake system, and steering components, totaling over $35,000. In interior has been fully restored. The seats, door skins, and dash have been reupholstered. The carpets have been replaced with the correct material. The floor mats are new and correct. All the interior chrome has been refinished, and remains in excellent condition. The exterior has also been restored. The car has seen an extremely high quality repaint which remains fresh in feel and appearance. All the gaps are tight and even, and the gaskets are new throughout. The black canvas top has been replaced (with correct fabric, inside and out) and the top frame restored. The exterior chrome has been refurbished and is free of corrosion. The underside has zero rust or evidence of damage. The car has been driven only in dry weather since the restoration. The battery box and floors are straight and rigid. The rocker panels are straight and Bondo free. All the underside hardware is new, along with the soft brake lines, shocks, and heater tubing. There no leaks or seepage from the pan or gearbox. The engine compartment is clean, and has been detailed to show quality. The front compartment is also detailed and finished in the correct flat black. Fantasy Junction is currently sourcing a spare wheel, front rubber mat, and spare tie down strap as these items were not present with the car arrived. With the car are the side curtains in good, unrestored condition and copious records to support the restoration work. The car currently shows 88,120 miles.
