Reply to "'57 Speedster on BAT"

There's a guy here in Massachusetts with one of those: A late '56/early '57 with the Pre-A beehives and a 3-gauge dash. There's also a mix of Pre-a and A stuff throughout as they were finishing up the parts bins. He calls it a Type 540 (says so on his license plate) and as I understand it from him and Rich MacKoul (the guy with the '55 Speedster), Porsche built, like 43 or so of them, making them pretty rare (don't quote me on that number).

Almost as rare as a Pre-A with the hood handle centered, rather than being off 1/4" to the right.
