Description of 1955 Replica/Kit Makes |
THE ABSOLUTE ALL ALUMINUM 550 SPYDER: History:Constructed with a curvaceous aluminum body wrapped around a tubular steel ladder chassis that has a 1. 5-liter air-cooled mid-engine. the 550 weighed 550 kilograms (1. 13 pounds). With its 135hp engine in such a lightweight. superb handling machine. the 550 beat every other vehicle within its own class and could run with much higher-powered (but heavier) machines. Only a limited quantity of 4-5 units/year will be available for those customers who understand exclusivity and timing. Our cars are built to exact specifications as in 1955. The 550 Spyder is considered one of the most desirable and legendary sport cars of all time. Four years of development: In 2008 Alloycars has taken the initiative to handcraft the aluminum 550 Spyder using exact 3-D scan data of an original car as well as over 800 blueprints/sketches. drawings and hundreds of photos taken from each component of the original dismantled car. Each of those components was re-cast and re-created as a mirror image of the original. These intricate components (most hidden under the body) make it impossible for even a seasoned expert to tell it apart from an original 550. Alloycars is the only firm dedicated to re-create this car in every little detail since 2008.
