Banham Spyder 550 – Panamericana Racing Look – Unique Collector’s Item

For sale: a Banham Spyder 550 in the legendary Panamericana Racing Look – a tribute to one of the most iconic cars in automotive history.

The Porsche 550 Spyder became famous as a race car in the 1950s and gained tragic notoriety as James Dean’s “Little Bastard.” The original is now an invaluable collector’s item – with recent sales reaching over 4 million euros for an authentic 550.

This vehicle is a perfect homage to the golden era of motorsport, featuring a classic design with a low, aerodynamic build, a purist cockpit, and the unmistakable Panamericana Racing Look.

• Completely rebuilt Type 4 engine by Oratech (120 HP)
• Electronic ignition
• Two dual Weber carburetors for a powerful sound and an authentic driving experience
• Porsche gauges
• Lightweight body for a pure driving thrill
• Perfect road handling and a direct connection to the street

This car has been meticulously maintained and optimized with great attention to detail. It’s so beautiful it could belong in a living room – but it’s far more fun on the road!

Reason for sale: Collection liquidation – a rare opportunity to acquire such a vehicle.

If you have a serious interest, I am happy to provide further details and arrange a viewing.
