Seller's comments about 1957' Porsche 356
Classic Motor Carriages (CMC) Replica!<br /><br />This beautiful 356 is a high-quality homage to one of the most celebrated sports cars in automotive history. Built on a performance-oriented subframe with a reinforced fiberglass body, this example is finished in a striking Dark Red Metallic that provides a deep, liquid-like luster. This particular build is distinguished by its California BAR (Bureau of Automotive Repair) certification, ensuring it meets rigorous standards for quality and compliance---a significant advantage for collectors and enthusiasts.<br />Technical Specifications<br />Powertrain: Equipped with a VW 1.5L Air-Cooled Flat-4 engine. This powerplant provides the authentic mechanical thrum of a vintage boxer engine while offering ease of maintenance & parts availability.<br />Aspiration: Dual carburetors with chrome pancake style air cleaners for improved throttle response and period-correct aesthetics.<br />Transmission: A 4-speed manual transaxle delivers a connected, analog driving experience, featuring a short-throw shifter with a custom Porsche-crested wooden knob.<br />Chassis & Suspension: Mounted on a shortened chassis featuring a factory-fitted subframe. The engine bay is meticulously detailed with a chrome fan shroud, a doghouse oil cooler setup, and upgraded braided lines. Plus disc brakes in the front with Crager wheels at all 4 corners.<br />Exterior & Interior Features<br />Classic Speedster Styling: Features the iconic low-cut rake windshield, flared fenders, and a single-grille rear decklid. The exterior is accented by chrome headlight stone guards, dual side-view mirrors, and polished wide-five style wheels with chrome center caps.<br />Premium Cockpit: The interior is trimmed in a refined Cream and Crimson color scheme. It features low-back bolstered bucket seats designed for comfort during long-distance touring, paired with matching cream door panels and a color-keyed dash pad.<br />Instrumentation: A traditional three-gauge VDO-style layout including a 150-MPH speedometer, a central tachometer, and a combination engine temp/fuel gauge.<br />Authentic Details: A signature Banjo-style three-spoke steering wheel with a Porsche center crest and gold-tone Porsche dash badging completes the vintage atmosphere.<br />Get in touch for a personalized walk-around video or visit us at 6720 Market St, Wilmington, NC 28405 to see this beautiful machine in person.
