Here is a nicely freshened up and sorted out Vintage Speedsters Brand 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster, with a very reasonable reserve. The car has kmh speedo, and it shows 19,450km, which translates to 12,140mph, and I have left it that way purely for the look. Everything on the car works great, including all the lights and accessories. The car sat in a building for awhile, and during the freshen up the Motor/Transmission was completely gone through about 2,000 miles ago, and at the same time the trans syncros and all the shifter bushings and motor mounts were changed, so this thing Shifts with ease with no trying to find gears. It has had the brakes gone through, and is a Front Disc Brake car, so stopping is not an issue. The Canvas Convertible top is only about 2 weeks old, so there isnt any fading or shrinking, so everything on the car looks very fresh. The paint is about 6 months old, so there isnt any rock chips or door chips in the paint, so it looks pretty fresh also. As you can see in the supplied YouTube video below, it is very hard to video this car, because it is to clean and bright, but I will try to make another video one morning or evening when the sun is lower. Since it has warmed up in our area, I have been driving this car as a daily driver, and it is a very solid car. I live in a rural area, so from town to town is normally a 50 mile round trip, and the car cruises great down the interstate at speed. The Steering and Suspension is very tight, and the body is very solid with no squeeks or rattle, and I guess that is due to the reputable quality of the build brand. It has a nice CD/Stereo and is a very comfortable ride, so it has been a pleasure to drive. I have had alot of cars over the years, along with several various kit cars, and I have to admit these 356 Kits are very well sorted out, so you dont feel like you are driving some sort of piece together piece of crap like the old Bradley's and others.. LOL The car is currently registered and titled as a 1969 VW, so all the paperwork in current and in order. Here is the YouTube video Link I have now, and I will try to get another one done and posted, possibly this evening when the sun goes down a bit.. This car is Clean and Bright, so I will have to catch right before dusk, in order for my Camera to not pick up all the glare. http://youtu.be/ED5IHUa4IX4 This car is ready to go, and is ready to enjoy. I have a very low reserve on this car, and it thousands below what I have seen other lesser cars sell for on here, so it should sell.. I also have it advertised locally, so the auction can end at anytime.. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, or need any additional information or pictures, because I want to represent this car as honestly as possible. I personally drive the car daily, so I can tell you exactly what I know about this car. I also have a very reputable and reasonable auto transporter I use, who is normally about half what Ebay Transporters Charge, and I will be happy to share that information with serious buyers, so you can get a shipping quote that will allow you to final total this sales transaction.On Mar-13-13 at 18:20:10 PDT, seller added the following information: Here is another video that was done in the evening, so there isnt as much glare.. http://youtu.be/qBDPKY3RNZ4On Mar-14-13 at 19:00:02 PDT, seller added the following information: I have had questions about the reserve on this car, and it is very low, in comparison to what is listed. I see a couple of other cars on here that are bid higher than 17k and the reserve has not been met yet, but that is not the case with this car.. We are very close to reserve at this point, and this car will be bought worth the money, so do keep an eye on it. My reserve is 14,500 dollars, which is lower than some of the comparible cars are at now, and their reserves have not been met at this time.. Feel free to ask questions, and dont miss out on a solid car.On Mar-14-13 at 19:08:38 PDT, seller added the following information: Forgot to add, I will not take 14,500 for the car in a Buy it Now situation, because I am fairly confident it will do much better, because it is a clean and solid car.. I just wanted to let the people that are asking questions know there is a realistic reserve on this car, and that this car will not be bid up to never meet reserve, so it should sell to someone the first time with out a relist.
