1957 Porsche 356A T1 Super Speedster
• VIN 82865
• Engine No. 748009
• Transmission No. 65774
• Completed December 21, 1956
California Speedster has had an extraordinary history for the past four (4) decades. Finished in a classic color combination of Silver Metallic (5706) with a Black leatherette interior. This is the 14th Speedster, built in 1957 with beehive taillights and European bumperettes. The paintwork is in superb condition and is complemented by the chrome brightwork and Speedster trim. The interior has been reupholstered including the dash, Speedster seats, canvas soft top, and boot cover with correct German materials. The factory VDM steering wheel, horn button, and VDO instrumentation are in great condition. New Vredestein Sprint Classic 165 HR15 tires are mounted on painted 4.5” x 15” rims with Baby Moon hubcaps.
Mechanically powered by a 1600cc flat-four engine (Type 616/39) with Solex P40 carburetors producing 100 horsepower plus and is paired with a smooth-shifting manual 4-speed transmission (Type 741) with a four-wheel drum braking system that has been completely rebuilt. This Speedster is very enjoyable to drive with plenty of power. The electrical system has been upgraded from 6 volts to 12 volts. Complete with spare wheel, side curtains, boot cover, and Porsche Kardex—an excellent opportunity to acquire a beautifully restored Speedster that is finished in a very desirable color combination.
