Southern California black plate 356A T2 Speedster is finished in a desirable color combination of Black with Red upholstery, and matching engine and transmission confirmed by its Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Imported by Hoffman Motors of New York, equipped from the factory with sealed beam headlights, coupe seats, and U.S. overrider bumpers. The open-air character made the Speedster one of Porsche’s most celebrated models.
The paintwork reflects an older restoration with excellent gaps, panel fit, and patina. The deck lids are matching and retain the “549” stampings—the interior features an Nardi wooden steering wheel, VDO instrumentation and courtesy lamp under the dash . The front trunk compartment retains a date-coded fuel tank and sending unit. Date-coded KPZ 4.5 x 15 painted wheels are mounted to Vredestein Classic 165 HR15 tires. The undercarriage is well-preserved, in original condition, and is solid and rust-free. A new black canvas soft top and boot cover were recently upholstered and also comes with the original red vinyl boot cover, full black tonneau cover and side curtains.
