1958 Porsche 550A Spyder // Lot R442 // Mecum Monterey 2018
The Porsche 550A-0141 Spyder featured here captured multiple podium finishes during its maiden 1958 season with driver Ernst Vogel, who just happened to be a virtuoso composer and professional concert pianist.
One of a mere 39 examples built, the 550A-0141 Spyder is one of the last to leave Porsche RennWerks and reputed by current owner Steve Terrien to initially be a Piech family-owned car that was raced in competition by the Porsche Salzburg team—the same de facto Porsche works team that captured the marque’s first overall win in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Terrien, of Issaquah, Washington, located the car in a warehouse in 1984. Throughout the next 30 years, the car underwent a fanatical comprehensive restoration that was done to exacting standards. The body was treated to fresh aluminum skin with close attention paid to authenticity.
His 34 years with 550A-0141 Spyder has been a labor of love that has been driven by his deep appreciation of the marque, most especially the Erwin Komenda, Ernst Fuhrmann and Ferry Porsche era. For it was Terrien who ensured that this arduous restoration was performed to exacting standards by a select group of highly respected marque experts.
