In 2010, I met a chap named Adam Hughes from Vintage Motorsports of Oregon through an online Porsche forum. Adam is well-known in the VW community for building Volkswagen buses and the occasional 356 project. I struck a deal with Adam for him to build a 356A Speedster that would be powered by a 911 drivetrain. I supplied most all of the parts and he did the metal fabrication. The 356A chassis was strengthened with a semi-hidden tube frame to help support the additional weight of the six-cylinder engine and 901 transmission. I also provided two original speedster doors and a rear deck lid along with a reproduction speedster dash from Trevor's Hammer Works. The body received all new sheet metal. Deep Fuchs 15x5.5 fronts and 15x6 rears were squeezed into the tiny wheel wells of the speedster body. I have a few different engine options, but keeping with the "vintage-spirit" of this project I'm leaning towards using an early (1966) 911 aluminum 2.0 engine case with oversized pistons and cylinders. Utilizing 2.7 cylinders and the early 66mm crankshaft would yield about 2.5 liters of fun. I've built these engines for 911's before and they sound and run great! The front suspension has been modified to accept 944 turbo spindles to allow for disc brakes. My current thoughts for exterior paint are Golden Green, Pure Blue or Canary Yellow. Lots of mechanical work has to be done first though! Adam talked me out of putting flares on the 356 like the ones in the movie "King of the Mountain"... said the car would scream "fiberglass kit car!"
