1963 Porsche 356 on 2040-cars
Claremont, California, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: joleenjnnogales@artfriend.com . his is a real Porsche 356 – Cox was out to replicate Dean Jeffries custom 356 outlaw shown in my picture .Bare metal restoration in 2004 at Cox Motorsports in Grandview (Kansas City) mo.
This could be the most beautiful 356 Porsche coupe in existence! It is definitely NOT stock! Well over $100k invested to create the ultimate 356 hot rod.
Starting with a rust free 63 coupe, the car was stripped to bare metal, and totally rebuilt from the ground up. Beautifully installed new larger 911 battery box and pan at time of restoration.
Notice the incredible roofline...it has been chopped 2 inches to resemble the profile of the Porsche Abarth Carrerras.
Front fenders sloped to look similar to the A 356 fender line.
Headlights dished like Ferrarri Dino. Door handles removed, filled with metal perfectly, remote door openers installed...this blows them away at Starbucks! Show quality paint by Mike Winfrey. Won best paint at World of Wheels. Color is Porsche linen silver and applied and buffed to perfection!
Power windows, recessed license plate, and early 356 beehive taillights.
Perfect correct red interior. New carpet, headliner. New 12v wiring, modern snap in fuse box system, eliminating the hassle of old glass fuses.
All mechanicals by Cox Motorsports, the best 911 race shop in the country. Perfect 1978 3 liter 275 hp 911SC motor, 5-speed 901 gearbox, and 911 transaxle.
The front mechanicals are all 356 – the rear mechanicals are all 911.
Heater from the 911 engine works great.911 disk brakes all around, new shocks, suspension, uprights reinforced like Cox's Porsche racecars, 911 alloy wheels. Charcoal filter for gas tank, Turn signals hidden above headlights, Front fender oil cooler with thermostatically controlled fan (never overheats), Aeroquip oil lines to the motor. New Weber tuned carbs, detailed engine compartment. Performance is like no 356 you have ever driven, very, very fast and reliable. The exhaust note is spectacular, coming from the Cox Custom Exhaust system that is silver jet hot coated. This car is truly spectacular, the only one like it in the world, and gets more looks than you can imagine. It looks just right, very subtle, so the guys who appreciate the classics love this car, and the guys who love performance go nuts when they look under the custom louvered deck lid. This is your chance to have one of the most unique, beautiful Porsches anywhere. If you want it, you had better get it, because you will never see another one like this.

Porsche drivers escape this horrific VIR crash unscathed
Mon, 07 Oct 2013There is no doubting the fact that it takes nerves of steel to be a racecar driver, but the same can also be said for motorsports photographers. Case in point: The American Le Mans Series Oak Tree Grand Prix at the Virginia International Raceway where two Porsche 911 racecars crash hard into the tire barrier, but the dedicated cameraman stays with the shot - diving away only at the last second just as the battered No. 31 car (shown above) comes to rest atop the tire barriers just feet from where he was standing.
The crash occurred when the two Porsches charged hard into a corner. Judging by the video, the white No. 48 car appears to not see the orange No. 31 and the two cars make contact, skidding off track hitting the tire barriers at a high rate of speed. Both drivers walked away from the frightening crash, but the video - posted below - shows just how bad things could have been. Hopefully the close call will serve as a lesson for the woman standing in the track marshal's post who has her back to the racing as the two cars barrel directly toward her.
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.
Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3
Wed, 09 Jul 2014Here's your tough question of the day: Would you rather drive a new Porsche Cayman GTS or a slightly older, 996-era Porsche 911 GT3? Certainly, both cars have their plusses. The Cayman is the more modern proposition, sure, but the GT3 is, well, a GT3. So yes, it's a tough decision.
If you're one of the lucky souls that have to make that choice, then this video from Evo should prove pretty helpful. It's a track battle, starring Jethro Bovingdon with a new GTS and an old GT3.
Calling the GTS "fantastically agile" and "fast, but it's also hilariously good fun," Bovingdon bangs home a solid lap time of 1:05.2 before switching to the GT3. It's remarkable to see just how dated the 996-generation 911 looks after viewing the newer Porsche, and from where we sit, it's further proof that the old car's headlights are something that's best forgotten. Styling qualms aside, though, can the GT3 keep up with its racy younger cousin?
