The question is - Is your Porsche repairable? And the answer is - absolutely! Unless the car is a complete right off every Porsche has the potential for being rebuilt from the ground up as long as your pocket book can handle it. And the 1953 550 Spyder is one of the best choices there is. This was the first real competition Porsche to actually hit the market. It was a two seater with an aluminum body and tubular frame which made it light weight. The original 550 dominated its class at the Le Mans race finishing in first and second places and eventually going on to win the Pan Americana Mexican race. Future 550's had the four cam Carrera flat engine and they became the most sought after car in its class both on the track and on the street. Porsche drivers were quick to recognize the potential of this peppy little car. The 1956 model has some small modifications but they were enough to see it win the Targa Florio road race hands down.

For the next 5 years the 550 continued to win and it continued to draw more attention than any other car on the market during that time.
