Greetings, (NO RESERVE AUCTION!!!!)
We have been building and tuning replica Speedsters and Spyders for nearly 20 years and we have seen it all. I always tell customers in the market for a replica (home-built) to go and check it out in person of have a professional inspect it before they buy.
The difference between a home-built Speedster and a Professionally built could be thousands of dollars and hundreds of hours. Sure just about all replica Speedsters look alike in photos, but the real difference can be startling.
Don’t let your dream car purchase turn into a nightmare that could ruin your dream forever. Buy from a reputable professional.
Here is one of the nicest looking and running Speedster replicas you will find. This is one of those rare replicas that is actually better than it looks in photos and really drives flawlessly. Although we were not the original builders, we have gone through this car from bumper to bumper and made everything as perfect as can be. You won't find anything wrong, nor does this car need anything worked on. It's a pleasure to drive and will bring you many miles of driving pleasure. If you would like to schedule a test drive please call me.

No Maintenance steel reinforced fiberglass Speedster body that won’t dent or rust and will look this good for many years to come. No worries of dreadful parking lot door dents.
Stunning High dollar Custom Ivory paint throughout. All the gaps are perfect. Everywhere you look, inside the door jams under the hood and deck lid, all you see is clean perfectly finished paint. Please note this is car has less than 4,500 total miles and is a driver with one tiny touched up paint chip at the front of the hood (size of sesame seed) and a minor scratch on the right front bumper edge (half inch long) and has been touched up but is slightly noticeable.
