1955 Porsche 356 Pre

This 1955 Porsche 356 is a pre-A 1500S Speedster that was refurbished under prior ownership and was previously listed on BaT in March 2019 . Work has since involved servicing the brakes and replacing the clutch, starter, distributor, ignition wires, fuel lines, and battery. The car is finished in Signal Red over black and is powered by a 1.5-liter flat-four paired with a four-speed manual transaxle. Features include a black canvas soft top, a top boot, 15″ steel wheels, body-color bumpers, headlight grilles, and bucket seats.
