This 1956 Porsche 356A Speedster is an early example.
Subsequent refurbishment included minor body repairs and a repaint in the original red, as well as the installation of a 1,750cc flat-four sourced from a 912.
Receipts and photographs document some of the restoration work performed by Ed Pimm of EPR Porsche Restorations, Denis Moore and Bill Kemper of Panelwerks, and Vic Skirmants of 356 Enterprises.
A repaint in the original shade of red (5602) was performed in the mid 1990s following some dent and rust repair.
Stone guards protect the sealed-beam headlights, and the car retains its early quadruple beehive taillights.
Body-colored bumpers are equipped with chrome overriders, and factory 15” wheels wear polished moon caps and Nankang CX-668 tires.
Speedster bucket seats are trimmed in black leatherette, with rubber mats and squareweave carpets covering the floors.
A 2-spoke factory wheel is retained, and VDO instrumentation includes a 120 mph speedometer and a tachometer with a 4,500 rpm redline.
Under 41k miles are shown on the 5-digit odometer.
