This gorgeous Aquamarine Blue Metallic 356 Speedster was custom built for a gentleman in Massachusetts 2 1/2 years ago. He drove it about 700 miles during that time and had a nice group of cars in his collection and sold this one to a gentleman here in the Atlanta, GA area about 5 months ago. The current owner put close to 1000 miles on it through the summer and decided he wanted a more modern sports car so he is ready to let it go to the next lucky owner…maybe you?! Great opportunity to scoop up a beautiful build without the wait and enjoy it right away.

This particular build was done in Aquamarine Blue Metallic which was an original Porsche 356 color and it is hard to argue how great this car looks. The metallic glistens in the sunlight and has a beautiful tone in the shade. The fit and finish most likely exceeds the original. one has front and rear bumper guards, a nice set of driving lights and mesh headlight grille guards. The body is adorned with Porsche badging on the nose, rear and dash. It also runs on the vintage 190 polished aluminum wheels with emblem hub caps that look great. With just 1600 miles the paint and body look fantastic with just a couple of very tiny rock chips on the front nose area. I always recommend driving these cars top down but of course it also has a like new dark brown canvas soft top. Window inserts are also provided and a matching boot cover when the top is down for a clean, sophisticated look.
Complementing the Aquamarine Blue Metallic exterior is an equally stunning Baseball Glove interior with Gray German Square Weave carpeting. The Speedster seats are very comfortable. Door panels are beautifully customized with closing document pockets and polished door pulls. Matching dash pad and passenger side grab handle. Period correct VDO gauges with a GPS Speedometer and digital odometer allow the driver to monitor the speed and performance of this air cooled Speedster. Beautiful Woodgrain steering wheel with a Porsche horn button and vintage style turn signal lever adds to the authenticity. This 356 is also optioned with heated seats Vintage Speed Shifter for a crisp, short throw pattern for your driving pleasure. Retrosound Bluetooth stereo neatly mounted for a vintage look with hands free microphone mounted on the steering column. Shelf pad behind the front seats. Current owner added a cup holder that bolts on to the passenger seat frame. Custom set of Coco mats have been added for that finishing touch. Simply gorgeous interior!!!
