I am selling this 1962 Porsche 356B for a friend. He is downsizing as he is getting on in years. He is the second owner and has owned this car since 1971. The car has a older repaint and is a California black plate rust free car. The paint is presentable although not perfect. Most all of the rubber is still soft. The pan is free of damage and corrosion. The chrome trim is excellent and shines up well. All the glass is good, and the headliner is not ripped or torn. The mechanicals are good and the car roads well. The doors, hood and deck lid operate as they should with no sagging or play. The Back seat and seat deck look unused. This car is very nice and can be driven anywhere. The Owner was a executive and is not a car guy. He has had this vehicle professionally maintained. The car has been garage kept and driven mostly on weekends. It has the original - owners manual, jack, spare, jack handle, workshop books, and luggage rack leather strapping. There is a aftermarket bra in good shape, and a few receipts dating back to the mid nineties. I was told by the Porsche dealer that it is a matching numbers car and the odometer reads a little over 70K which is believed to be correct. The car starts right up, does not smoke, the oil light goes of and does not come on at idle, It shifts well in all gears and has a lot of power for the 4 cylinder engine size. The brakes do not pull and the car stops correctly. The original carpet and interior is in excellent shape other than a wear mark on the drivers seat piping edge and the driver rocker carpet edge. The paint has a few nicks and looks to be touched up in a few areas. There is a good quart of paint from the paint job which is a factory correct color (the can is pre 1974 with no bar code). The spare looks to be original with the leather hold-down strap in good shape. The drivers headlight has a chip in the glass. The ash tray and glove box show no use. the radio is original to the car. The interior lights do not work. The patina on this car is great for its age and a well preserved older restoration example as this rarely comes up for grabs. I have watched the sales on this car type and many have sold for more than the starting price that were not even close in condition. The car is being sold with no reserve. This is a good dependable car to drive or restore to show. The registration is current thru August 2014 and the title is free and clear. If you have any questions please call Jim - seven one for 875 three for 28. The car is located in Orange county California. Buyer pays for shipping. Payment must be received within 48 hours of auction end. Cashiers checks must clear prior to transfer. Thanks for bidding.

Gary Cooper's 1935 Duesenberg SSJ fetches record price at Pebble Beach

Mon, Aug 27 2018

The 1935 Duesenberg SSJ formerly owned by Gary Cooper sold for a jaw-dropping $22 million over the weekend at the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach auction, setting a record for the most valuable pre-war car ever sold at auction. It also appears to have become the most expensive American collector car ever sold at auction, eclipsing the very first Shelby Cobra ever made, which sold for $13.75 million in 2016. The Duesenberg was also the lone American-made entrant in the list of top 10 sellers, which was crowded with the names Ferrari and Porsche. You have to go all the way down the list to No. 21 to find the next American car: a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster Phaeton, which sold for a mere $1.127 million. All told, Gooding & Co. said it realized more than $116.5 million in auction sales over the weekend, with a whopping 25 cars sold for north of $1 million, an 84 percent sales rate and an average transaction price of $947,174. Clearly this is how the other half 1 percent lives. Gooding & Co. said there were five world-record sales at the auction. Joining the Duesenberg were a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II, which sold for $5.005 million; a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, $6.6 million; a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale, $3.41 million; and a one-of-two 1966 Ferrari Dino Berlinetta GT, $3.08 million. Oh, and that 1969 Ford Bronco test vehicle we told you about? The one that was rebadged by Holman & Moody as a Bronco Hunter? It sold for $121,000, which was well below the expected range of $180,000 to $220,000. Perhaps it was the presence of all those gorgeous Porsche Spyders and Ferraris that meant collectors weren't interested in boxy, utilitarian off-roaders. View 24 Photos Gooding and Co. had expected the convertible Duesenberg coupe to go for more than $10 million. It was one of only two of its kind built by Duesenberg — the other having gone to Clark Gable Â— with a specially shortened, 125-inch wheelbase and a supercharged straight-eight with double overhead cams, able to produce around 400 horsepower and a top speed of 140 miles per hour. It features a lightweight open-roadster bobtail body produced by LaGrande out of Connersville, Ind. The car was also owned at one point by race driver Briggs Cunningham.

Watch the Porsche 911 R rip through the mountains

Thu, Mar 3 2016

A few days ago, the top-tier driver's Porsches, the 911 GT3 and GT3 RS, were the only game in town. Both are exclusively equipped with the technically excellent PDK, a dual-clutch gearbox virtually without equal. Of course, lots of folks, including Porsche die-hards, wanted to do it themselves, even if human shifts came at the expense of milliseconds of shift time. Porsche listened. You read all about the new 911 R two days ago when it was announced (if not, watch the video and then dive into the particulars at that link). It's an unabashed gift to that vocal minority. The folks that wanted a manual GT3 got one, and it's better than that. It's a throwback to the original 911 R, stripped of weight and unsightly aero bits like the massive rear wing of the GT3. There's even houndstooth-patterned cloth on the sport seats. It's a brilliant homage, without being overly retro. But how does it sound, and look in motion? See for yourself. We humbly suggest minding where the drool lands. Related Video: Porsche Coupe Performance Videos 911 porsche 911 r 911 r
