The Appeal
The Porsche 550 Spyder is one of the most revered sports cars of the 1950s, and Paul Banham's replica conversions have long been recognised as among the most sought-after recreations. Based on a Skoda Estelle donor, this 1989-registered example uses the well-known Banham body kit and comes with the delivery note from Paul Banham's to verify its provenance.
The previous owner purchased the body directly from Paul Banham's and carried out the conversion, with the current owner continuing the build over the past three years. The bodywork is currently in various shades of primer, presenting a blank canvas for the next owner to choose their preferred colour scheme and matching seats. The car starts and drives, though it has not yet been on the road since the conversion. This is a project requiring its final touches: paint, seats, and finishing details, to become a faithful replica of one of motoring's most celebrated shapes.IMG_3187 Chris bate.jpeg2.59 MB
