This is a 1959 Porsche Speedster replica out of Vintage Speedsters in Hawaiian Gardens, CA. In 2006 the car was partially assembled at the Vintage Speedsters shops on a restored 1959 Karmann Ghia pan and then transported to TPC Racing in
Jessup MD., for completion, upgrades and sale by Automotive Legends in California. It carries an 1835cc dual port motor with Kadron 40 dual carbs. It has an upgraded, ceramic coated, cip1 dual exhaust, newer Michelin XZX tires, chrome cip1
wide-5 wheels, Koni red gas shocks and an adjustable and lowered front beam. The interior has a wood/polished Nardi steering wheel, Coco mats, a chrome fire extinguisher, mp3 stereo and upgraded carpets with original Speedster seats.
The car has been cherished, garaged and well maintained it's whole life. It has only covered 6047 miles. No rust, wear or interior flaws. It recently slid off the road, at low speed, into two poles on a back road in Northern Virginia. The damage
was all cosmetic. The pan, suspension and tube frame structure of the car sustained no damage. The catch is that the insurance had lapsed and damage won't be covered. I'd rather not part the car out as it is quite repairable. The problem is
with one child just starting college and another about to, I don't have the time or money to do this. Let me know what you may want to do. Open to suggestions and offers. Parts alone on this are worth quite a bit of $.
