1957 Porsche Speedster Replica a one-of-a-kind with a 1966 Chevy Corvair 2.7L turbo that generates 165hp. Car comes with a Clear title as a 0000 SPCN built in 1993, now under SB100, and is smog EXEMPT . The car sits on a VW Pan. Looking on thesamba.com, the pan/chassis matches March 1970. The clear title is in my name, and I have been able to successfully register it. Again, the car is registered under SB100, so it does NOT need to be smogged.
Car was purchased with a VW motor, but the previous owner didn't think it was enough HP. Replace the VW engine with this Corvair monster. I have all documentation of the work performed and engine rebuild. The engine is matched with a 4 speed VW gear box and a quaife differential. 12k tested/true miles on the corvair engine, 24k miles on the body. The speedster sits on its performance Motegi racing wheels (aka Traklite 2), Wilwood disk brakes all around. Fairly new front and rear tires. Brand new brake pads in the front, and the rear. The stance is perfect, drop spindles in the front and adjusted torsion springs in the back (paired with air shocks to adjust rear stance/handling).
I recently added fog lights, LED headlights, and put better hood straps, electronic choke, and RF horn button. The remote horn is a custom on-off. The steering wheel has a quick disconnect, and you can still operate the horn detached from the steering column. It's an awesome trick, and always gets people wondering WTF, just like the Corvair engine in the back. I also added a convertible top and side curtain windows to prepare yourself for winter driving. It's a low beam convertible frame, so the car looks chopped with the top up. Car looks good with both the top down AND top up. You can't say that about all speedsters...
The car gets tons of attention wherever you go with it, and people are always scratching their heads when they look.
