Overview of 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster Replica For Sale by Owner

The first ever production car from iconic German automaker Porsche was the 356. It was made between 1948 and 1965, and was the brainchild of Ferry Porsche, son of Ferdinand Porsche. Over 76,000 were made, and today, it’s estimated that approximately half of that contingent survives. However, getting your hands on an original 356 is quite tough, not to mention expensive. These cars regularly move for six-figure sums of money. That’s why replicas are a great way to get in on the action if you really want a 356, but aren’t too fussed about originality. Here, we have a 1956 Porsche 356A Convertible Replica that’s reportedly built in 1969. The work was completed by Hicks VW Services, because the Porsche 356 and Volkswagen Beetle have some commonalities.

Exterior and Interior

Dressed in black which was a fitting color at the time, this 1956 Porsche 356A Convertible Replica sits slightly taller than a typical 356 would because its Porsche-style wheels appear to be draped in P235/60 tall-profile tires. Despite the higher-riding stance, the body of this replica looks very close to the original, and only a few things such as the colored Porsche crests give away the fact that this isn’t an original. We’re told that the convertible soft top of this car is an updated unit and it comes in black to match the body. The interior of this 1956 Porsche 356A Convertible Replica is reportedly new and features red leather upholstery. There’s a wood and chrome steering wheel, a black gear shift knob and some interesting, feline-themed floor mats. You’ve also got a Pyle stereo fitted in the rear of the cabin, driving a set of footwell-mounted speakers. We’re told that the speedometer and tachometer are currently not functioning, but this should be a pretty easy fix.

Engine

This 1956 Porsche 356A Convertible Replica is powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine. The engine is an air-cooled unit, likely from a Beetle by the looks of it. It’s paired with a rebuilt 4-speed manual transmission and spins the rear wheels. We don’t know much about its power output, but suffice to say you’ll have a lot of fun driving this iconic classic replica, even if you barely break the speed limit.
