This auction is for a 1957 Speedster California Wide-Body 356 Porsche (Replica/Kit Car) recently completed and titled. Here is your chance to own a very special car. The Replica was purchased from Innovative Street Machines (Street Beasts) in September of 2004. Delivery was taken in December of 2004, and I have been building it ever since. This is a retro-rod with a vintage look and an updated appearance, including disc brakes and large wheels. I have spent over $32,000 on this car. Now, it’s time for it to go. Reserve is set way below the cost of building this car. I have enjoyed driving it, and there have been easily over 100 photographs taken of the car on South Beach while cruising or leaving it parked.
