This beautiful Silver metallic JPS 356 Speedster was completed in November, 2020 and currently has just under 3000 miles on it. The original owner ordered the car in 2018 and it took close to 2 years to be completed. The original owner really enjoyed the car but had the opportunity to purchase a classic that had been in her family for many years and she only had room for one so she decided to let this Speedster go and I purchased it in 2022. I then sold it to some folks who had an older Vintage Speedster that was air cooled. She wanted the added power the Subaru set up provided so I took her Vintage Speedster as a partial trade. They then decided that they really wanted one of our brand new builds in a different color combination so we put together a brand new build which took close to 3 years. I agreed to take this JPS in on trade towards their brand new build so it is available for the next lucky owner, maybe you! Paint and body look fantastic! Overall fit and finish is excellent and I really could not find any rock chips or other signs of wear on the body. It basically looks close to brand new! Some of the features on the exterior include front and rear bumper guards, tear drop style taillights, rear reflectors, and dual fender mounted side view mirrors, Full convertible top with window inserts and a full length tonneau cover. This Speedster is ready to show and go!!! Built on a completely reconditioned VW IRS chassis, this 356 Speedster is Titled as a 1973 VW.
Complimenting the Silver Metallic Exterior is a beautiful Burgundy leather interior. Authentic Speedster style seats are quite comfortable with pleated leather. Matching door panels and dash. This Speedster has 3 point seat belts. Ice cold under dashes Air-conditioning is just one of the great features. The unit also provides heat and the car is equipped with heated seats for driver and passenger for those of you in the colder climates who want to drive this Speedster year round. Great sounding Kenwood Stereo with Blue tooth is mounted under the dash with speakers neatly installed in the front kick panels. Really nice Mardi style woodgrain steering wheel sets the interior off nicely and a black set of coco mats give it that vintage look.
Now here comes the fun factor!!! This beautiful Speedster is powered by a 180 horsepower Subaru 2.5L SOHC Fuel injected , water cooled motor mated to a custom built 4-speed. Amazing power to weight ratio in this car will set you back in your seat under acceleration and is also set up to be a great highway cruiser as well. Handling is fantastic thanks to the Independent Rear Suspension ( IRS), Gas shocks, and heavy duty front and rear sway bars and a lowered stance. Four wheel disc brakes with 5 lug 15 " chrome wheels with emblem hub caps and wrapped in a like new set of radial tires. LED headlights for safe night time driving. Amazing tone from the A-1 Sidewinder double barrel exhaust under acceleration with a soft rumble at idle. This Subaru powered Speedster is an absolute blast to drive and is ready to go!!!!
