8/5/201610:08 estFiled to: Porsche 356, Porsche ReplicasBy: Chris Cushing7 Comments

Over the decades, since it left production, the 356 has inspired numerous replicas. While most of the 356 replicas are VW based, this Intermeccanica-bodied car is something entirely different. This Speedster uses the running gear from a Porsche 993. The owner has always owned convertibles, and wanted to combine the best of his classic British …

8/19/20139:58 estFiled to: Porsche ReplicasBy: Roger Garbow5 Comments

The car achieved …
