This 1955 Classic Motor Carriages Speedster C pays homage to an iconic sports car with its sleek, red exterior. The wide-body fiberglass shell captures the essence of the original, accentuated by color-matched front and rear bumpers. Custom wheels fill the fenders, wrapped in 205/60R15 tires for a planted stance. A black cloth convertible top with a plastic rear window adds versatility, while drop-in plastic side windows maintain the classic profile. Polished mirrors and sun-oxidized windshield wipers complete the exterior package, creating a striking blend of vintage aesthetics and modern craftsmanship. Inside, black vinyl low-back bucket seats offer a snug fit for spirited driving. The dash, painted to match the exterior, houses an array of gauges including speed, voltage, fuel, RPM, oil temp, and pressure. A digital head unit mounted in front of the passenger adds modern convenience. The wood-rimmed steering wheel and beechwood Momo shift knob provide tactile pleasure, while the e-brake and shift boots sport red stitching for a pop of color. Kicker speakers in the lower kick panels and aluminum sport pedal covers round out the interior upgrades. Small rear seats increase practicality without compromising the roadster feel. Powering this Speedster replica is a freshly rebuilt 1835cc flat-four engine, completed by Wedge VeeDub in Phoenix. The powerplant features new head castings bored to 94mm and an Englello camshaft for improved performance. Dual two-barrel carburetors feed the engine, while a new clutch assembly transfers power through a Volkswagen four-speed transaxle to the rear wheels. The suspension utilizes independent setups front and rear, with upgraded disc brakes up front for confident stopping power. A custom exhaust system with dual tips exits below the rear bumper, providing a fitting soundtrack for this classic-inspired machine.
