Porsche 356 Speedster - One of a Kind and Gorgeous

Price: US $33,500.00 Item location: Los Angeles, California, United States
Description:

1957 Porsche 356

One of a kind Speedster replica custom built to spec by Vintage Speedsters in 2015. 5000 miles on the new engine. I opted for every upgrade offered by Vintage and then commissioned custom 18 karat gold work as described below.
Deep blue exterior paint (a few paint nicks that I will post later). Custom 18K GOLD finishes including gold side runners, handles, side rearview mirror, engine grille, tail pipes, and front fog light grilles. Just the right amount of gold touches to absolutely stun the eye while remaining tasteful in overall appearance.
Bluetooth stereo/phone connectivity to easily stream music and calls from phone, great sounding new digital stereo with retro face.
Upgraded 1915cc engine punches with power, 4 speed manual transmission, disc breaks on all four wheels, upgraded two tone interior (tan and cinnamon with thick piping). 3-point harness seat belts. Upgraded Pirelli tires. Full Tonneau tan cover.
It starts and runs perfect every time. All parts are new. Handles like a dream on the curves of Mulholland Drive. Truly a dream car that turns every. single. head. on. I believe it's fair to say this is the most beautiful car in Los Angeles, which is saying something.
I am selling it because I don't have anywhere to keep it and we are remodeling the house (need cash). I would like to buy another one in different colors in a few years when my situation should be a little different.
Inspections and questions welcome. Thanks for looking!On Feb-20-16 at 21:29:20 PST, seller added the following information:

UPDATE in response to various questions:


It was built by Vintage Speedster using custom paint and custom gold parts that were completed by specialist. 3:88. Full Tonneau tan cover. Interior is tan and cinnamon with custom extra thick cinnamon piping. Not sure if it's a dual carb as someone asked. Engine is brand new, new pics attached including engine shot.
I don't have pics with the top up. I live in SoCal! It snaps on easy if you want to use it.
I will post a video when I can make one. You will see the car starts and runs perfectly. Also it sounds great, lots of base and bite.
Serious buyers only. Any winner who can't perform will be reported and I will advertise it on the relisting.
Will post additional answers as questions roll in. ThanksOn Feb-20-16 at 21:51:05 PST, seller added the following information:

Added a few more pics including additional shots of the 18K gold accent work, shots in the sun, and a shot of the digital radio face that looks period-correct. Also below is a link to a video of me starting the car up (first time easy) and taking her for a quick spin. Shot on an iphone so not the best video quality.
