Description: This radical Porsche 356 Cayman is the result of a labor-intensive 3,000-hour build, and reflects that level of quality and attention to detail.
A 2008 Porsche Cayman was used as the platform for the build, requiring a 9-inch section removal from the chassis to accommodate the shorter-wheelbase 356 Coupe body. The Cayman drivetrain and suspension was retained utilizing its 2.7L 240HP flat-6 engine and automatic transmission.
Fitting the 356 body onto the Cayman chassis also necessitated grafting on an additional 8 inches of body width and fabricating a custom windshield frame with special glass all-around. The car features a removable hardtop and a custom canvas cover.
To maintain the 1950s look, a special set of custom one-off CNC-milled aluminum 17-inch wheels were built to mimic the appearance of the stock Porsche wheel of the era. Other custom-fabricated pieces include the widened front and rear bumpers, the air-inlet grille on the rear deck lid and the billet steering wheel with the classic horn ring and center-mounted Porsche crest on the horn button.
Despite its retro-look, this is a modern car with multiple amenities, including climate control, automatic transmission, power windows, electronic instrumentation, Alpine 7-inch touchscreen with Bluetooth connectivity and ARC Audio 5 Channel Amp. The interior is lavishly appointed in beige basket-weave full leather. The classic black exterior is highlighted by the period-correct twin aero-style mirrors, the speedster-style side spears, the rocker panel deco-strips, the classic teardrop tail lights and the horizontally mounted chrome housing containing the backup light and license-plate illumination light.
