Greetings!

What we have for sale this Tuesday morning is a 1960 Porsche 356B Single-Grill Drauz Roadster.  This car is a first-year Roadster, and we are the second official owners and have owned the car since 1979, purchased in New Hampshire.  The car is currently in Grass Valley, CA.  

Most of the rust repair work is done but the car still needs longitudinals, the rear seat pans replaced and some pieces near the rear suspension center section welded in. We have all of the necessary metal repair pieces and they are included with the sale.  See photos for parts or call/email.

The car rolls and steers fine but has no brakes.  Several parts have been placed on the car but are not bolted perfectly into place, like the brake pedal cluster.

All pieces in the photos are included with the sale, including five European heater exhaust exchangers and many parts from other 356's we've worked on in the past.

The transmission matches the Certificate of Authenticity but the engine is a few numbers off.  All mounted panels are the originals except the passenger door but the original passenger door is included in the sale, however it is in rough shape.

The windshield is also included but I neglected to get a picture of it.  The installed Mangle chrome wheels and Pirelli P6 tires are my rain wheel set for my race car, and can be exchanged for a set of original Porsche 356B wheels and tires, if desired.

I have the California title, clear and in my name, ready to sign over.

I will help as much as possible with shipping arrangements for any overseas winner.  The port of Oakland, CA is about two and a half hours away.

Sold as-is.  I encourage all interested parties to view the car in person or call for more information.  Full payment in hand required before the car leaves my property.

Good Luck and Happy Best-Offering! 
thanks,
bill

Porsche boss admits Panamera's style is offputting

Sat, 11 Oct 2014



"There have been some small mistakes and we will do it better. For example the design could be better." - Matthias Mueller.
The design of the Porsche Panamera has been divisive, to say the least. Pretty much any Porsche with four doors was going to draw the ire of enthusiasts, but the fast-back-style roofline, prominent curves and seemingly never-ending hood have particularly irked some brand loyalists.

Sunday Drive: An automotive flavor for every taste

Sun, Feb 25 2018

Last week was flush with interesting new vehicle debuts, led by the new 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. This crossover is entering straight into the heart of one of the world's most competitive automotive segments, and it's doing so with a fresh sense of style and a brace of new technologies. Our readers are clearly intrigued – the Santa Fe was the biggest news story of the last week on these online pages. It's fitting that a crossover generated a lot more interest than a traditional wagon, though we don't really have to be happy about it. Still, the completely new, fully redesigned Volvo V60 is worth taking another look at. First of all, it's pretty, in a traditionally Scandinavian way. Second, it's quick, with a 0-60 time of as little as 4.8 seconds. And finally, it's practical, with all kinds of room for cargo without the dynamic penalties of an unnecessary lift kit. Moving on from new vehicle debuts, we took another long look at the Honda Ridgeline. It's definitely a non-conformist pickup truck, based not on a body-on-frame platform but on a more carlike unibody design. That means it can't tow as much as some other trucks, but it also means the Ridgeline drives better than any of its more truckish competitors. It's the Swiss army knife of pickup trucks. Rounding out our coverage from last week are three sets of spy photos, each showing the interior of a hotly anticipated new model. One is a truck, one is a crossover, and the last is a sportscar. All of them are worth another look. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the most important news in the automotive world. 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe unveiled 2019 Volvo V60 | Sleek, swift new twist on the Swedish wagon 2018 Honda Ridgeline | Pocketknife pickup is up for anything 2019 GMC Sierra interior looks just like the Silverado's 2019 Cadillac XT4 interior has actual buttons, no more touch-sensitive panel 2020 Porsche 911 992 spy shots show interior and manual transmission Cadillac GMC Honda Hyundai Porsche Volvo Truck Crossover Wagon Luxury Performance Sedan hyundai santa fe

Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

Wed, 29 Jan 2014



$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
