1956 Porsche 550 Spyder No Reserve!!!!!!!!!! on 2040-cars
Austin, Texas, United States
|
1956 Porsche 550 Spyder recreation. Incredible car with extensive use of aluminum and amazing detail work per the pictures. Car is in great condition - extremely clean, looks like a brand new car. Was built by Fibersteel in California at a cost over $100,000. This particular car is a very close replica of Porsche VIN 0018. The body is a work of art with extensive beautiful aluminum work which was done by Fibersteel. From the cockpit, engine bay, gas tank, wheel wells, brake ducts, etc., shows the fine craftmanship. Fibersteel no longer offers this type of replica due to the amount of time and money it costs to make it (they only made 7 of this type). The wheels are authentic with vintage Dunlop racing bias ply tires which are period correct and blemish free. Complete leatherette interior with correct style shifter and emergency brake, billet aluminum pedals, and original brand new Porsche 550 gauges. The car appears perfect due to it's $15,000 paint job that took months of work with block sanding and gap filling. Also added the real venting modification for the carb access exactly per the originals. You never see this detail in other tribute cars. Bilstein shocks all the way around so the car has excellent handling and balance. The engine was built by CB Performance of California. This 2332cc blue printed and dyno test motor with 165hp engine gives this lightweight Spyder (1600 lbs) excellent acceleration and driveability. The car is truly amazing and appears as new and stops traffic every where! Incredible detail in every way. NO RESERVE! Bid with confidence. Title is clean in hand. Title is for an assembled vehicle. $1000 deposit due within 48 hours of auction close. Balance due within 5 business days following auction. Cash or wire transfer is acceptable for payment. I can assist with coordinating vehicle pick up but shipment is the responsibility of the Buyer. Car is located in Austin, Texas, U.S.A. |

Maserati Levante SUV may be built in Italy after all
Thu, 05 Sep 2013In July Fiat halted its investments in Italy, putting on hold plans for the Maserati Levante SUV to be built at the automaker's flagship factory in Turin. But Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, whose company owns Maserati, met with unions on Wednesday, and he may announce plans to move forward with production of the SUV at the Mirafiori factory if the CEO and the unions reach an agreement, Bloomberg reports.
Marchionne is reportedly about ready to build new cars at Fiat's largest and oldest factory, on the grounds that 5,300 workers accept extended temporary layoffs through most of next year in a slowing European auto market. If unions don't accept the deal, it's not clear whether Fiat would still consider building the Levante at Mirafiori or not.
The Levante, Maserati's first SUV, is based on the Jeep Grand Cherokee platform, and we reported two years ago that it would be built in Detroit next to its Jeep cousin. Obviously those plans have been altered considerably in the intervening period of time.
Watch Maserati prep this Quattroporte for Geneva by hammering on its sheetmetal
Tue, 05 Mar 2013There are untold amounts of primping and set up that goes on in the days leading up to an international auto show. Of course, there are exhibits to erect, lights to hang and scripts to rehearse. There are also cars to prep. Usually the latter involves little more than removing finger prints and dusting, but in the case of Maserati the day before the Geneva Motor Show press days, the process apparently includes banging on the sheetmetal of one of your prized showcars like a crazed woodpecker.
We're not sure what caused a surface irregularity in the door skin of this 2014 Quattroporte - perhaps shipping damage - but it was interesting (and mildly painful) to watch, and hear, a show prepper attempt to repair this six-figure sedan with what looks like a jeweler's hammer, high-intensity light and soft cloth.
That'll buff right out.
Alfa Romeo 8C, Maserati Quattroporte and Granturismo models recalled over rust fears
Mon, 20 May 2013The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced Maserati and Alfa Romeo are recalling certain Quattroporte, Granturismo and 8C models over potentially faulty tie rod ends. According to NHTSA, 2005-2008 Quattroporte, 2008 Granturismo and 2008 8C units may have been assembled with tie rod ends that have insufficient corrosion protection. As such, the components may rust, weaken and potentially fail. If that happens, the driver could lose control of the vehicle and cause an accident.
Maserati and Alfa Romeo will contact owners and replace the tie rod end assemblies once the recall gets underway in June. All told, 7,438 vehicles are impacted by the recall. You can read the full NHTSA notice below for more information.
