    FS: @The Samba: 550 Replica . . .

    . . . . .

    . . . The Spyder is the epitome of Porsche racing. Built by the prestigious Fibersteel in California, this 1956 Spyder slmost perfect. This is a close recreation of the VIN 0018. The body is a work of art with extensive aluminum work which was done by Fibersteel of California. From the cockpit, engine bay, gas tank, wheel wells, and brake ducts, it shows the fine craftsmanship. Only one of seven; Fibersteel no longer offers this service making this example all that more rare. The wheels are authentic with Vintage Dunlop Racing bias ply tires, period correct, and are blemish free. Complete leatherette interior with correct style shifter and emergency break, billet aluminum pedals, and original brand new Porsche 550 Gauges. The car appears perfect due to its $15,000 paint job that took months of work with block sanding and gap filing. Also added is a real venting modification for the carb access doors which are usually painted black (which aren’t usually functional on most replicas.) Bilstein shocks, all the way around that give the car excellent balance and handling. The engine is built by CB Performance of California. This 165 HP engine gives this lightweight Spyder, (1600 Lbs. Gross) excellent acceleration and drive ability. The car is truly amazing and appears as new and stops traffic everywhere it goes. It’s ready to drive or show at the highest level. The car needs nothing and is complete in every detail.
