The Speedster was the brain-child of US Porsche importer Max Hoffman. He saw a need for a cheaper 356,which consisted of a roadster body, smaller and lighter seats and less creature comforts than Porsche originally offered in the 356 models.
There is no doubt that the 356 was a instant success overseas at the time but took a while here in the states for buyers to come around. So it is ironic that the cheapest of the 356's at the time are now some of the most valuable reaching staggering collectability status with prices well in to the $300,000 mark.
This is why the Replica market has really taken off and there are several companies capitalizing on it as well as do-it yourselfers that can buy kits and assemble them to VW chassis. This particular Speedster replica is finished in attractive silver over black interior. It is offered with a built 1600 CC dual port VW and sits on a 1973 VW Chassis that is free of any rot. It starts, runs and drives nicely with plenty of power. It has its speedster top as well as a tonneau and boot cover. All of which are in excellent fitting condition. It also has a fantastic stereo with a hands-free set up.
