356 Speedsters in AZ

First, I just found this site today. WOW I'm impressed. I have owned three 356 coupes in the past and now that the kids are gone, I get to have another toy. Anyone know anything about a company called 356 speedsters in Tucson, AZ?

Troy,

I believe they are a Vintage Speedster reseller. They advertise a lot on E Bay. You'd probably be money ahead going direct to Vintage Speedsters or JPS Motorsports, both in the LA area. We are having a Speedster/ Spyder show at Knotts Berry Farms in Buena Park, CA on April 24-25. Go to this home page and click on the Replica Rendezvous logo for all the details. Probably the best place on the planet to talk to owners and builders and check out the cars. If you are on the East Coast, they are doing a similar meet at Carlisle, PA. Again, go to the home page and click on the Carlise logo. Can't go wrong with either show.

Bruce,
They make them there is Tucson, See 356speedsters.com. Looking at the pictures on their web site, I am not really impressed by the seats they use. They seem a little higher priced than the two So. California makers but then I would not be paing sales tax in AZ.

Troy,
They are a reseller of Vintage Speedsters, the photos on their site are of the Vintage Speedster shop in Hawaiian Gardens CA. One of the photos on the front page, is a photo I took of a Vintage Speedster. They look like they order directly from the factory and resell. JPS on the other hand uses Vintage Bodies, but actually assembles the car themselves.

Take a look at the Makers section in the top menu here. We list only manufacturers, not resellers. If you search the internet you will find many, many different "356 creators", they are all selling a Vintage Speedster manufacturered car. Some are very up front about this, many are not.

Seats are an option, there are a few different styles with all the manufacturers.


Oh, and this is really funny. The following picture appears on their site. The guy in the background is wearing a Vintage Speedsters logo T-Shirt.

Theron,Thanks for the information, I have spoken with a guy named Michael Burdett (VP customer service)and he claimed they were the manufacturer. In fact if you look at their web site they show pics of what is supposed to be their manufacturing area. Seems a little sleazy to me. Anyway I really appreciate your information. I have been looking around for a few months and will be buying one at the end of the year. Really happy to have found you folks.
