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 originally built in the 90s by an aircraft engineer.  The car was very well built.  It 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. .

Recharge Wrap-up: Big Oil fails at renewable fuel, scientists study air with EVs, plug-in Panamera sales

Thu, Jul 10 2014

Big Oil companies help keep renewable fuels out of your tank, a new report shows. No surprise there, right? The Renewable Fuels Association published a report card grading the country's largest retail gasoline chains on fuel offerings like E85 and E15. The report gave failing grades, with less than one percent of stations offering E15 or E85, to "Big Five" companies Exxon, BP, ConocoPhillips, Chevron and Shell, among other oil company and convenience/grocery store brands. The only major oil companies that didn't get an "F" were Valero (D), Cenex (B), and Marathon (A-). The eight companies that scored an A+ had at least 25 percent of their stations offering E85 or E15.

Beginning July 4, University of Leicester researchers began driving electric vehicles kitted out with special sensors to monitor air quality throughout the city (similar to how California does it). Now their emissions-free daily driving duties double as data collection for their studies. "By monitoring air quality as a seamless part of our daily transport system, we are providing a cost-effective way to help inform future policy and operational systems," says the University's Dr. Roland Leigh.

"There is no doubt electric cars are the future." – Nissan's Andy Palmer Nissan is exploring the idea of taking its Leaf EV to India, but a lack of charging options is an obstacle. According to Nissan's chief planning officer Andy Palmer, "There is no doubt electric cars are the future. The product is there, what we need is infrastructure. Charging is a big challenge." Though Nissan stopped short of saying it (this time), this could possibly mean working with Mahindra, which said it is open to collaborating with other companies concerning EVs. Learn more in this article from the Hindustan Times and know that India is rolling out a plan to encourage the production and adoption of EVs. The National Electric Mobility Mission Plan will get over $2 billion in funding, and some of that will go toward creating a charging infrastructure (you hear that, Nissan?). This is good news for EV manufacturers, India's economy and people who enjoy breathing clean air.

Porsche 918 Spyder recalled over bad wiring harness

Fri, May 22 2015

An investigation of customer concerns has led to a global recall of the Porsche 918 Spyder, including 223 units in North America. The carmaker said that a carbon fiber component can damage a radiator fan wiring harness, so it is contacting owners directly to have their cars brought in for a service inspection. The issue affects cars built through the end of April 2015; cars built after that use a revised design. Dealers will remount the wiring harness, a process that should take half a day. You'll find more information in the press release below. Related Video: Porsche recalling 918 Spyder models for service inspection Precautionary recall: affected customers will be contacted directly Atlanta. Porsche has issued a global recall for 918 Spyder models that have already been delivered. This precautionary recall for a service inspection affects 223 vehicles in the United States. This is because the electric wiring harness for a radiator fan in vehicles manufactured up until the end of April 2015 could be damaged by a carbon-fiber component. The wiring harness will be examined and optimally remounted in the work shop. The cause was identified following a detailed examination of inquiries. Corrective measures have subsequently been taken in manufacturing. The owners of the affected vehicles will be contacted directly by Porsche Cars North America. The service visit, which will be free of charge, will be arranged as quickly as possible and the inspection will likely require the vehicle to be left in the shop for half a day.

Best plug-in hybrid cars, SUVs and minivans for 2024

Tue, Aug 6 2024

We’re fans of electric vehicles, but they have their shortcomings. TheyÂ’re not available in as wide of a range of body styles as gas-powered cars, and theyÂ’re still limited by range and charging infrastructure. Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) offer a great compromise, though, allowing for all-electric driving, but also having a gas engine for when you need more power or to travel long distances. Choosing a plug-in hybrid vehicle also allows more options; for instance, you canÂ’t get an all-electric minivan in the U.S. Â… yet. But with those extra PHEV offerings, it might be difficult to know where to start shopping. WeÂ’ve narrowed it down a bit, bringing you the best plug-in hybrids for 2024, as voted on by Autoblog staff, in various segments to help you pick a great PHEV based on your budget and needs. Best luxury plug-in hybrid large/midsize SUV: Volvo XC90 Recharge Despite showing its age, the Volvo XC90 remains an excellent three-row crossover in terms of design, comfort and safety, and the XC90 Recharge plug-in hybrid only improves the formula with both power and efficiency. Interestingly, with the gas motor powering the front axle and the e-motor powering the rear, the XC90 Recharge operates as a rear-wheel-drive car when only using electric power, and front-wheel-drive when only using gas. The powertrain is good for 455 horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque, with a 5-second 0-60 time. It can travel 32 miles on electricity alone. Runner-up: Porsche Cayenne E-Hybrid   Best mainstream plug-in hybrid large/midsize SUV: Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe Do you want an American PHEV with style, refinement and off-road capability? The Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe combines all that with a turbocharged 2.0-liter and electric motor good for 375 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, as well as an electric range of 26 miles. That means you can enjoy your favorite trails in near silence and make fewer trips to the gas pump on the way there. Runner-up: Kia Sorento Plug In-Hybrid   Best luxury plug-in hybrid compact/subcompact SUV: Volvo XC60 Recharge Volvo borrows the formula from the XC90 and places it in a smaller package to get the XC60 Recharge. It has the same 455 horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque, but it drops the 0-60 time to 4.5 seconds while offering 35 miles of electric range. You can even pony up for the Polestar Engineered trim to get the Ohlins suspension, Brembo brakes, 21-inch forged wheels and unique styling.
