This Speedster has my favorite
color combination of Midnight Blue with a Lite Sand interior. In fact, the Midnight
Blue paint on this car is so deep that it looks like you could reach into
it! Just look at the reflections in the pictures and video below.
The amount of attention this car will get can actually be a little bit embarrassing when everyone is gathered around your car at the country club and the guy with the six figures Ferrari or Lambo is almost ignored. You will actually feel sorry for them, especially when you consider the cost of their cars compared to what you paid for this classic beauty. It's no BS, just ask any Speedster owner.
*Fair warning, don't buy this car if you can't handle all the attention and questions you will get.*
If you're looking for fun and excitement and you like the idea of "the wind in your hair," but think a motorcycle is too dangerous or, you already have a motorcycle, but your significant other is tired of riding on the back and you want something that is just as exciting, but more comfortable and way more classy, then this car is for you!
More fun and much more comfortable than a motorcycle, costs less than some Harleys, you can't fall off of it and there is
NO HELMET REQUIRED!!!
This classic Speedster replica comes with a stunning, Midnight Blue paint job,
which is in excellent condition. It has a beautiful lite Sand Allante interior and was factory built by Vintage Speedsters
BEFORE the company was sold and moved to Arizona, so you know it
was done right. This Speedster has only been driven a little under 3,200 miles since it
was built. It has never been driven in the rain and the exterior, interior, top
and side curtains are in excellent, like new condition. The chrome wheels with
Porsche crested Baby Moon hubs are simply spectacular and the Pirelli P4 tires still have the little
"nubs" on them.
The gold Porsche script on the
dash, front and rear, the Speedster script on the front fenders, the Porsche emblem badge on the hood handle, the Reutter
badge on the side, the headlight stone guards, and the USA and Germany grill badges add the finishing
touches, but there is more. This Speedster comes with very rare
Wind Wings and luggage rack with period correct vintage suitcase, retro
travel labels, a vintage fly fishing rod, reel, net and creel! If
that doesn't get you the Best of Show award at your local car show, I
don't know what will.
This beautiful Speedster is
built on a 1965 VW pan and has current California registration good until July,
2021. It is registered as a 1965 VW, with no
smog certification requirements. When comparing this Speedster with Speedsters
from other manufacturers, pay very close attention to the quality of the build.
Check that the doors, hood and trunk all fit smoothly and are aligned properly,
with no gaps.
The engine is a big 1915cc VW with dual Kadron 40mm carbs. It starts every time with
just a turn of the key, sounds great, pulls well and runs VERY strong, just
watch the video below!
