For sale: 1959 Rometsch Lawrence Coupé – Fully restored, rare, with Vintage Speed styling
We are pleased to offer, on behalf of its current owner, this magnificent and rare 1959 Rometsch Lawrence Coupé. A unique car, not only due to its rarity – only 115 examples produced – but also because of its exceptional condition. According to the official Rometsch register, only 34 examples are still known worldwide today.
This Rometsch has undergone a full “body-off” restoration, with no compromise on quality or budget, to reach the highest level of finish.
The bodyshell was entrusted to the famous Grundmann family, a genuine authority in Rometsch restorations.
The mechanics were completely overhauled by Richarzzz Speedshop in Germany, with extreme attention to detail and reliability.
All work is carefully documented by a large number of invoices and supporting documents.
Vintage Speed with character
At the owner's request, this Rometsch has been customised in an elegant Vintage Speed style, including:
Adjustable front axle
Okrasa engine from Wolfsburg West
Additional 30hp oil sump
Vintage Speed stainless exhaust
Powder-coated steel wheels
This blend of original elegance and discreet sportiness makes this coupé as rare as it is unique.
History and documentation
The car comes with several period and original documents, including:
Period brochures
Copy of the Fahrzeugbrief (original German registration document)
TÜV inspection reports
California title
The Rometsch Lawrence Coupé is a true rare icon of the 1950s, built on the chassis of the Volkswagen Beetle. While acclaimed for its design, it was too expensive at the time to compete with the Karmann Ghia, which limited its production – making surviving examples even more precious today.
A car of this rarity is very rarely offered for sale. It is now available for a fraction of the total cost invested in its restoration.
