Vehicle Detail

Authentic 1956 Porsche 356A 1600 Speedster: Solid floors; excellent body gaps. Garaged California car with black license plates and zero rust anywhere. Older restoration that continues to show well. I found this car in Piedmont California, buried deep in a garage, not driven for many years. Believe it or not, this is 30 year-old paint without a single rock chip or touch-up: No signs of lifting or bubbling anywhere. We dry-ice blasted the floors to bare metal and sealed them with epoxy primer and paint, the finest rust protection process available. Please inspect the factory spot welds on the undercarriage: Note that every spot weld is visible, proving the rock-solid nature of this black-plated California Speedster. Freshly rebuilt 356A 1600s engine: Even compression; optimum oil pressure; runs crisp and powerful. Original transmission 7429, per Porsche’s Certificate of Authenticity. The official Porsche COA is on order, but Vanessa (the COA clerk) offered the following factory information by phone: 1956 356A 1600 Speedster: produced 11-28-1955; original engine 60075; original transmission 7429. Thanks for looking! Please email any questions , and see a slideshow of 226 detailed (and downloadable) pictures below (click to speed up or view entire album): On Mar-05-12 at 20:23:17 PST, seller added the following information: Watch Gino and Ray run the engine. (Please also note that the official COA arrived and has been added to the photo album): On Mar-06-12 at 14:18:46 PST, seller added the following information: Please note: I encountered several major Ebay system errors when listing this Porsche, which caused the text to appear odd, in several different sizes. I relisted the car several times trying to correct this, but the text still appears wrong on computers using the Firefox browser. Please try to ignore this inconstantly-sized text, as I don't want to list the car yet again just to correct it. Thanks!
