The Kitman Motors 356A Speedster Pro – Premium Pre-Hung Replica Kit
Experience the thrill of the iconic Porsche 356 Speedster with our flagship Speedster Pro replica kit. Introduced in 1954, the original Speedster became a legend on American roads and racetracks. Our Pro version faithfully captures that heritage while delivering modern engineering advantages that make building easier and more enjoyable.
Key Premium Features of the Speedster Pro:
- Fully pre-hung doors with professional hinges and latches installed
- Pre-hung hood and decklid – fitted and ready
- Integrated bonded subframe for superior rigidity
- Block-sanded and primed body – save 40+ hours at the paint shop
- Front and rear bumpers, under-dash closeouts, and all mounting hardware
- Available in LHD or RHD configurations
- Total body weight approximately 290–310 lbs
The Speedster Pro is engineered for a shortened VW pan chassis (we partner with Washburn’s Metal for a discounted, perfectly matched shortened pan when purchased together). This setup uses a stock VW ball joint beam upfront and IRS transaxle in the rear. Perfect for air-cooled VW engines or modern 2.2L Subaru conversions.
Why Builders Choose the Speedster Pro Over Standard Kits Unlike base models, the Pro delivers a true turnkey body experience. No more struggling with door alignment or hinge fitting – everything arrives pre-assembled and gap-perfect. This premium approach is ideal for builders who value time, precision, and professional results without sacrificing the hands-on satisfaction of a DIY Porsche replica.
