The 1958 Speedster type T2 is the most desirable, sought after, and
best to drive of all the Speedsters from 1954 to 1958 with the ZF
steering box, high bow top frame, and a better shifter position
that was moved closer to the driver. Finished in its original
exterior color Meissen Blue (color code 5703), the condition is
simply stunning! The interior is upholstered in red wine vinyl with
leather front seats, German Oatmeal square weave carpets, black
canvas soft-top, and black boot cover. Very straight body with
excellent gaps & panel fit. The undercarriage is nicely detailed
including the suspension, engine, and transmission.
Mechanically, it is in excellent condition. The engine is a
period-correct 1600cc Normal that is only 50 numbers off from the
original and it performs very well with plenty of power. The
matching manual 4-speed 644 transmission shifts through all the
gears with ease. The drum brakes have been rebuilt with all new
wheel cylinders as well as a master cylinder. Complete with tools,
jack, owner's manual, side curtains, and boot cover, this Speedster
is fully sorted and ready to enjoy. Rare opportunity to find a T2
Speedster in this condition.
