DESCRIPTION HAS BEEN UPDATED

This 1957 Porsche 356 Speedster Re-creation is powered by a VW 1250 Scat engine, producing approximately 130hp, with twin Weber carburetors and Bosch ignition and fuel pump, mated to a 4-speed VW manual transmission with upgraded suspension. The car was purchased as a rolling chassis with no engine from Rock West Racing in San Diego, CA, and was then worked on by the consignor and Palumbo Automotive. Many of the parts supplied by Rock West had to be replaced, including the pedal assembly, brakes, throttle linkage, fuel pump, fuel filter, battery cables, fuse box and tires. This car was sent back to California in 2016 to have the top fitted and installed, where it also received a service and adjustment on the carburetors, which were not working properly. The carburetors were rebuilt in 2022 and are now working properly. This car was bought to be a project for the owner and their high-school-aged daughter to work on together. It was featured in ReinCarNation Magazine in November 2017. **TITLED AS 1974 VOLKSWAGEN SPECON** **TITLE IN TRANSIT** **SOLD ON BONDED TITLE**
