Vehicle Description
1958 Porsche 356A T2 Speedster * VIN 84549 * Engine No. 68610 - Matching * Transmission No. 18346 - Matching * Certificate of Authenticity * Completed February 10, 1958 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. Powered by its matching driveline, a 1600cc flat-four engine paired with a manual 4-speed transmission (type 644), and four-wheel drum brakes. European Collectibles did a full mechanical recommission focused on reliability and drivability while preserving its overall originality. The service work included a complete rebuild of the braking system, replacement of the fuel hoses, installation of a fuel filter, new spark plugs, and a speedometer cable. Fresh fluids were done on the transmission and engine, along with a valve adjustment, oil filter, replacement of the fuel sending unit, and an engine tune. The compression test readings were 110, 120, 110, and 110 psi across the four cylinders. Complete with a toolkit, jack, original key, spare wheel, a copy of the Porsche Certificate of Authenticity, and a Porsche Kardex. This numbers-matching Speedster offers a compelling opportunity to acquire a very desirable, rare 1958 T2 Speedster in exceptional mechanical condition, that is ready to enjoy. |
