http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Other-Makes...=item2c6456359e Rare Early Enzmann VW Coachbuilt sportscar As much as I hate to do it, I am selling my 1961 Enzmann sports car. These cars are beyond rare. Only 67 were ever produced and only 19 were still known to exist until this car was rediscovered. Here is a little history on the Enzmann's. The Enzmann family designed and built the Enzmann 506 bodies in Switzerland , then bought Volkswagen Beetles directly from the VW Factory and had the car shipped to thier shop back in Switzerland. The bodies were removed and the Enzmann bodies were then installed. You could get the car in many different performance packages, the best was with the 356 Porsche Engine and 356 brakes. With this set up, the Enzmann's used to give the Porsche 356's and 550 spiders fits back in the day....they had the same drivetrains , but due to their weight, they used to leave the Porsche 356 and 550 spiders in the dust in road racing on the European race circuits . The Porsche 356's weighed 1700 plus lbs and the Porsche 550 Spyder's came in around 1346 lbs. The completed Enzmann weighs only 1102 lbs. The dimensions are very slightly over 156 inches long, 48 inches wide, and 36 inches high. Thus, the Enzmann has a greater performance potential than either. My car is all there less motor. The body is in pretty good shape. This car was recently discovered in Southern California, where it has spent the bulk of its life. The car looks like it was built for road racing....it has early Porsche 356A brakes all the way around...and was powered by a 356 engine (not with the car). A fully restored Enzmann 506 recently sold for $134,000.00 in Germany in the last few months. This rare car would be a great addition to any ones car collection....... The last picture posted of the red Enzmann, is of my car back in the early 1970's Attached image(s)
