Seller States:

Porsche Carrera GT coupe reproduction as clone of the famous Carrera Panamerica racers successful in the late ’50′s. This very rare and spectacular coupe has a GRP/fiberglass/steel reinforced body produced by the 356 “A” coupe manufacturer, JPS Motorsports. Exterior paint in genuine Porsche Glasurite Slate Grey with red Speedster seat interior and a Nardi-style polished wooden steering wheel . The frame is a strengthened 1963 VW with new disk/drum brakes, shocks, a 12 volt electrical system throughout, very bright halogen H4 headlights with “flasher” capability, new dual master brake cylinder, a new and balanced 1776 cc VW engine with forged crank producing over 95hp, mated to a tall-gear 4-speed transmission for highway cruising in excess of 100 miles per hour!. A high-capacity ceramic-coated stainless steel heater/defroster is installed as is a central rear exit stainless steel Carrera “stinger” exhaust, Carrera louvered engine lid with a correct single “A” coupe chromed engine grill and new radial tires on 15″ chrome rims. The distinctive twin “bee hive” stop and directional tail lights signify the unique 1956-look!
With only 1300 miles, this Porsche coupe is unmarked and virtually brand new with a clean underside! The car is very fast and a blast to drive! Porsche owners are constantly blown away by the superb quality detail and accuracy of construction and many are fooled thinking this sexy-looking Carrera Panamerica GT clone is a genuine 4-Cam-ed Carrera and worth well over $100,000.00! And the twin fared-in chrome driving lights, set off by the leather bonnet straps, certainly add to this car’s exciting “period” appeal!
Because the body is hand-rolled fiberglass, no rust will ever occur, a common fault with a genuine Porsche
You and your “significant other” will arrive at the car show, the golf club or your local bar room to admiring and envious glances with not a hair out of place! What a feeling, what a look!!! What a guy…what a girl!!! Those convertible Speedsters one sees everywhere are a dime-a-dozen! Not so, these spectacular and very rare coupes! And this Carrera Panamerica GT race car clone is rarer-than-rare! Just look on any e-bay ad to see loads of those common convertible repro’s!
