Paying tribute to the classic Porsche 356 Speedster, this custom-built replica is finished in yellow over tan interior upholstery. Manufactured in 2015 by Custom Coachworks, this example is powered by a 1,600cc flat-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transaxle. This Speedster recreation is now being offered for auction by its seller out of California.
The fiberglass bodywork is finished in yellow, reminiscent of Porsche’s period-correct shades offered in the early 1960s. Exterior details include chrome trim, dual mirrors, gold badging, and chrome 15” slotted wheels with Porsche-crested hubcaps. A tan snap-on tonneau cover is included, noted to have a repaired section following a tear. Minor paint imperfections are present and consistent with age. Detailed images are provided in the gallery.
Inside, tan vinyl upholstery covers the low-back bucket seats, door panels, and upper dashboard. Interior features include a wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel, vintage-style VDO instrumentation, a passenger-side grab handle, chrome accents, and tan square-weave carpeting. The seller states the odometer has been replaced and does not reflect the vehicle’s actual mileage. Minor wear is noted on the carpeting.
Power comes from a 1,600cc flat-four engine driving the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transaxle. The seller states that a new engine was installed approximately 1k miles ago, and no outstanding maintenance items have been reported.
This sale will include a clean title.
The seller would like you to know: “Great, fun car to drive. Functions and rides like it’s a sports car. Looks fantastic, head turner.”

Hello ProducerJohn, tachometer needs calibration, the tape is covering a gauge that is not in usage, COMB is also for Fuel, but we also have another gauge for fuel and it is fully functional.
Bid in the amount of $7,501
Why is the tachometer sitting at 3700 rpms when it's clearly only idling and why is tape covering teh temp gauge?
Bid in the amount of $4,356
Carguy 74 it’s drivable with no known issues. I have driven over 200 miles with no issues. Lights work. Tires are newer about 3 years old no weather exposure. Gear box seems fine.
It’s registered in Montana to avoid paying yearly DMV fees and I have a company there so it’s tax free for my cars and equipment I purchase for my business.
So the question to the seller: Could I drive this up to Seattle with no problems? How old are the tires and what is the state of the gearbox and motor? All lights work? Thanks
Bid in the amount of $3,560

Hello JTP, I believe it was built by an individual, I believe it is a custom tubular steel frame.
Do you know what type of frame and was it built by Coachworks or an individual
