You dont find many spare wheels like this anymore. Â All the Porsche enthusiasts have been hoarding this stuff for years. Â The Porsche Carrera 2 used a special 4 cam performance engine. Â It seems the Porsche Factory created special wheels for this model with thicker wheel centers to match. Â It even has the correct original parts sticker and stampings that corresponds to the Porsche Factory Service Bulletin.

This is a fiberglass Beck Spyder that has been taken to another level. The builder really did their homework to build this car to get as close as possible to the actual car. They did a very good job. Instead of using a speedster windshield , the builder put on a frameless lexan windshield like the original car. It has the proper looking pea shooter exhaust pipe. The alloy wheels are custom to this car. Not exactly correct but still good looking. I like the attention to detail on the front and rear signal lights. The interior looks well done as well. The steering wheels , turn signal stalk , switches all look great. I like the overall attention to detail. The badging looks correct as well.
