The replacement 1.9-liter flat-four was reportedly installed by Vintage Speedsters in 2013 following an engine fire and is equipped with twin downdraft carburetors, open-element air cleaners, an EMPI oil breather box, a fire-suppression system, and an A-1 Performance Exhaust four-into-one exhaust system. The turn signal relay was replaced in September 2022. The wood-rimmed steering wheel frames a 130-mph speedometer, a tachometer with a 5,500-rpm redline, and a combination gauge indicating engine temperature and fuel level. Features include a wood shift knob, a heater, a chrome passenger grab handle, a carpeted rear cargo, rear seat pads, lap belts, door pockets, and a Retro Sound stereo with Kenwood speakers mounted under the dashboard. The car is equipped with four-wheel independent suspension, and braking is handled by front and rear discs.īucket seats upholstered in tan and brown vinyl are complemented by a matching shifter boot, door panels, rear seat pads, and light brown carpets. Silver-finished 15″ steel wheels were mounted with 165/80 Nexen SB-802 tires in September 2022.
The reverse lightbulb was replaced in September 2022 along with a linkage clip on the windshield wipers. Equipment includes a removable tan soft top, removable soft side windows, body-color bumpers with chrome accents, headlight stone guards, a central exhaust outlet, and Reutter and Porsche 1600 Super badging. The car was completed in 2012 and incurred damage from an engine fire in 2013, at which time the louvered decklid was replaced and the car was partially repainted by Vintage Speedsters. The fiberglass body is finished in Fjord Green (Porsche #5705) and is fitted over a Volkswagen Beetle pan. This speedster replica is offered in Pennsylvania with a tan top boot, receipts, removable soft side windows, Coco floor mats, and a clean California title in seller’s name listing it as a 1968 Volkswagen. Work in September 2022 included cleaning the twin downdraft carburetors, repairing the shift linkage, changing the oil, and replacing the tires, fuel filter, and turn signal relay. Equipment includes a tan convertible top, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, a heater, a polished four-into-one exhaust system, a louvered decklid, a battery cutoff key, an aftermarket stereo with Kenwood speakers, disc brakes, and 15″ steel wheels. Built on a Volkswagen Beetle chassis, the car is finished in green over tan and brown vinyl and powered by a 1.9L flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. This Porsche 356 Speedster replica was assembled by Vintage Speedsters in Hawaiian Gardens, California, and was acquired new by the seller in 2012.
