Description
This is a 1957 356 Speedster Replica finished in Arctic Silver over a Burgundy interior. It is powered by a 1.6-liter flat-four VW engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Special features on this car include a body-matched painted dash, a cherry wood steering wheel, a third brake light, twin dual exhaust, and a front trunk. This stylish Intermeccanica is currently registered in British Columbia with a clean and (Normal) status. The odometer reads approximately 4k-kms (2.6k-miles).
For US bidders, this Speedster Replica is directly importable without modification as it is EPA & DOT exempt. For more information on transport/import please visit our Transport/Import page here.
The 356 Speedster used the Volkswagen Beetle chassis as a starting point, but the exterior was made to be more aerodynamic, and the resulting product was lightweight and agile, by the standards of the day, at its 1950 release. It has a racy, cut-down windshield and distinctive torpedo-like fenders with large round headlights encircled with chrome. A thin chrome character line runs the length of the car, with Speedster script placed above the front fenders. Fender skirts partially conceal the rear wheels, and the car has a black soft top with a zip out rear window.
The rear-engine boot lid has vertical vents and a Porsche emblem. European teardrop shaped tail lights with amber turn signals sit above a body-coloured rear bumper with chrome and rubber strips. Twin dual sterling exhaust tips appear at either end of the third brake light. This Speedster replica rides on 15” chrome wheels with Porsche Super 90-style hubcaps. The wheels are wrapped in radial tires, Firestone F-560 165/R1586S at the front and Nankang CX668 165/R15/80 at the back.
Inside, the Roadster-style front seats and a back bench seat are upholstered in Burgundy vinyl. A Grant cherry wood steering wheel fronts period correct instrumentation with a 7K rpm VDO tachometer to the left, a 120 km/hr VDO speedometer to the right, and oil pressure and temperature gauges in the centre.
A fuel level indicator and an analog clock are mounted on the dash to the driver’s right, with a 356 emblem placed in between.
The shifter and emergency brake are black, and centred on the transmission hump. The floor is covered using burgundy carpeting. The car’s fuel tank and battery are placed in the front trunk.
This rear-engine, rear wheel drive 356 Speedster replica by Intermeccanica is powered by an air-cooled 1.6-liter flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. This is rated at 100 horsepower and 100 lb-ft of torque when new. The Speedster has four wheel independent suspension with trailing arms and torsion bars, gas shocks, inboard rear ride height adjustment, and the front suspension is also mechanically adjustable.
