A little about the car: This is a Thunder Ranch car. TR purchased Beck's original tooling for there 4 cylinder kits. This 6 cylinder kit is their own design and culmination of a lot of hard work which is why these are so rare and so expensive. Not to mention the additional cost of the 911 motor. TR has made over 330 (4 cylinder kits) and only 5 (6 cylinder kits like mine). This is a very rare vehicle. There is over $85,000 into this car and if you wanted to recreate it you would spend near 6 figures. This is your chance to own it at a fraction of what it would cost to build with all of the work being complete and can be enjoyed immediately. KitCar Magazine Cover car in 2009. This car was on the cover with a large article written about it in 2009. I have 3 copies of the magazine that will come with the car. The only difference is that I changed some of the interior to red and added red leather heated seats... which is a great addition for those cold mornings or nights. Mileage: 4,600 kilometers (<1,000 on rebuilt motor and carbs), approx. 2,800 miles. Note: New Red interior completed less than 2 months ago. Some older photos will show black seats which were vinyl. Motor: less than 1000 miles since rebuild - 2.4 liter twin plug 1973 911S motor. This was a stock 2.4 liter. The S heads were added and twin plugged, S cams, S pistons, etc... to make it a true "S" motor. I recently completed a top end rebuild (Competition Engineering in Lake Isabella performed the work) and inspected the bottom end which needed nothing and looked great. The only thing that was replaced was the access circular oil gasket on the bottom of the motor by the drain plug which was weeping. All front main and rear seals were all dry as a bone. - Peterson 10 quart oiling system with hard in-line oil filter and cooler with built in fan. This car will never overheat because of how open the motor is. The fan rarely even comes on. - Rebuilt Weber 40mm stacks done by Paul at Performance Oriented. This was a complete rebuild with center shaft drilling... not cheap! - New Mallory Comp fuel pump with Holly fuel pressure regulator and A/N inline (reusable) fuel filter. Also, all new stainless steel braided fuel lines were added when the engine was rebuilt - Installed new style auto weather proof engine wiring harness connectors for easy removal when needed. This is a 8-way connector and used for all major wires from fuse panel to engine. Very easy to disconnect during engine removal or maintenance. - Estimated at 225hp (if not more) and the car weighs approx. 1,400lbs. - Custom 3-2-1 ceramic coated exhaust system with Dynaflow mini mufflers. - Hydraulic assisted slave cylinder on clutch for easy driving. Exterior/Interior: - Racing plex windshield by Hanna manufacturing - 356 glass windshield included with all framework and fasteners. I couldn't bring myself to drill holes for installation and love the current look of the vehicle. - Tonneau cover custom made by Stitch at Classic Interiors and has a zipper to remove just one section for warmer conditions for driver or to protect against the elements if caught in rain. - custom rear view mirror with headlight style holder - Porsche square weave carpet - 718 style balsa wood shifter (also in Carrera GT) - Nardi steering wheel - bucket seats from Thunder Ranch (heated top and bottom with low and high settings) - Twin Porsche style grill Suspension/Transmission/Brakes: - 901 transaxle from 914. - 914 drive axles - four link suspension with panhard bar and DiDion tube. Supported by Aldan aluminum coilovers. - CNC 4-piston calipers up front and 911 2-piston calipers in the rear (brand new). - Porsche 944 master cylinder Wheels/Tires: - Porsche Fuchs 16x7 and 16x6 - Brand new Dunlop DZ101 tires This vehicle is also on YouTube. I have posted several videos so you can see how the car sounds and drives. Please search under "Bryan Boardwell" to locate the videos. |

Maserati confirms mystery concept, Zegna edition QP for Geneva
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Debate ensued last week around the Autoblog offices when we first heard rumors that Maserati was bringing a new sports car concept to the Geneva Motor Show this year. Could there be any truth to the rumors? Did the timing make any sense? Does Maserati even need a two-door halo car to help it move examples of the new Ghibli, Quattroporte and upcoming Levante?
Well, we still don't have any official answer, but Maserati has indeed confirmed a new concept car to debut this week at the Swiss expo. The Modenese automaker hasn't indicated what form the concept will take, but assuming it's not doing another sedan or crossover, and unless it's planning a wagon concept like Touring's Bellagio Fastback or StudioTorino's Cinqueporte (both based on the previous Quattroporte), we feel it's more likely than not that we'll be looking at a two-door (be it a coupe, convertible or something in between).
Of course, we also don't know at this point just what size and segment Maserati is pursuing with this concept car (initial rumors had it going after the Jaguar F-Type) or for that matter whether it will presage a production version to follow or simply stand as a design study. But Maserati doesn't typically do many of the latter: the Kubang concepts of 2011 and 2003 previewed the Levante (albeit several years in advance), and the Birdcage was really more of a Pininfarina project, despite the Trident on the nose. With the exception of a couple production-based show cars (which themselves previewed production versions to follow), those are pretty much the only concepts Maserati has done in recent memory.

2014 Monterey Motorsports Reunion is a symphony of classic racers
Mon, Aug 18 2014With about 550 classic racecars lapping Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca over the course of the weekend, the Monterey Motorsports Reunion might be one of the largest vintage racing events in the country, maybe even the world. It was certainly one of the highlights of the lavish Monterey festivities last weekend. This year's featured marque was Maserati, which was celebrating its 100th anniversary, and plenty of trident logos could be found on track, ranging from the 250F grand prix car to some of the company's later sports cars. Of course, with 15 groups of classic racers, there was basically something for any motorsports fan. Among the highlights were the Trans-Am race that brought together rumbling hunks of American muscle to jostle for position on track. There was also a fantastic class from the '50s and '60s with Ferraris, Corvettes and even a Volvo P1800 and Toyota S800 racing together. Watching these iconic racers back on track at full pace was just a revelation to see, smell and hear. There were too many fantastic cars to list them all, but feel free to check out Autoblog's huge gallery from Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca to see if you spot your favorite racecars of yesteryear.
