I'm calling BS on the Speedster video part way through the link above. That's a Vintage built Super Widebody if I ever saw and I've seen a few. There is no way it was built by the Brazilian company being discussed in the link.

I don’t think so Troy. I looked at all of their videos and they’ve rep’d Rolls Royce, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Corvettes, and a Shelby Cobra with a build quality that rivals the real deal. I don’t think it’d be hard to rep a 356 for them.
No way Robert. If it is, they replicated a Vintage Speedster. Right down to the the coiled alternator wire, the dash trim stopping short of the dash edge and especially the wheels! Those wheels were custom made for Kirk and virtually impossible to get from the manufacturer. If they wanted to replicate a Speedster why not replicate an actual Speedster interior and then just flare it.
I agree with Troy. I'm 100% positive that is a Kirk built Vintage Speedster. I could list at least 20 things that make it a Vintage. Even down to the dash wrap not extending to edge of the windshield.

I'll chime in with Troy and Theron as we probably have had our hands more Vintage Speedster's than anyone here. Noted are the : 1 x2 Door top rails, door panels, carpet style at forward door jambs, custom made wheels ( Mexico City ) dash vinyl fold at windshield posts, curled alternator wire, deck lid grill, the higher chassis stance too. No question it's a VS.
I reviewed their website and Instagram account. I believe the Ferrari's, Lambos, and gullwing mercedes' are their recreations. I don't believe the speedsters are. One of their speedsters was recently on BaT and (I believe) built in SoCal.
