Brentwood, Tennessee, United States
Selling my "barn find" [found last year] original one family owned 1965 SC. This is a well cared for original car. I bought this from the original owner's son. He had the car parked in his warehouse for about 6 years. Per the porsche owner's book with the car,His father bought the car here in Nashville in late 1964. Per the son, The car was "bumped" into in the back drivers side quarter panel sometime in the early 70's, the car was fixed and repainted,[ drivers door line needs work] the color is Very close to the original color. and for 40 year old paint looks damn good. There is very little rust on the car, [1 Jack point under the drivers door has a rust spot], I believe the floor boards and battery area have been replaced. When we pulled the car out, I had it taken to Wikki Lawerie and his company Rentag motorworks here in Nashville [feel free to call him] he completely rebuilt the motor, which had [90k miles on it when we found it. The original owner had an electronic fuel pump added to the motor , which we have left on the car.I have put about 1000 miles on the car] and put a new muffler [original specs] back on the car. We also installed new weber carbs , but I do have the original solex carbs.I have not really done anything else to the car since it was found. All the original instrument cluster gauges work, clock is not running... lighter and ashtray are intact but are worn...still original 6 volt system The Car runs great and is a good driver. It is... NOT A PRISTINE CAR ...but it is a very good looking and solid car and I would not be afraid to drive it anywhere. Just saw an original go on ebay in way less condition than mine is in, go for 55k... so my price is pretty solid. If you are looking for a very nice driver, that does not need much work, my car may be the car for you Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer. I am happy to help make arrangements. Glad to meet and show the car to anyone around the Nashville Tn area. I have done my best to describe my car,Car comes with no warranty's, other than the motor work we just had done glad to answer questions Thanks for looking Jon |

Watch Carrera Cup driver Connor de Phillippi's first lap of the N"urburgring
Thu, 23 May 2013American race driver Connor de Phillippi was recently added to the roster of Porsche Juniors, the arm of Porsche's factory racing program that develops new talent. The 20-year-old is contesting the Porsche Carrera Cup Deutschland series with FÖRCH Racing by Lukas Motorsport, and last weekend, he raced the series round at the Nürburgring. Starting 15th on the grid, de Phillippi would cross the line in ninth out of 32 finishers.
Courtesy of his in-car camera, you can watch his entire first lap in the video below - there's no music added, just engine whine during nine minutes of crests, turns, bumpy straights and that wicked Carousel. Enjoy.
Our hats are off to Porsche's 2014 911 Turbo Cabriolets
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Porsche has just debuted its two latest decapitated rocket sleds today at the LA Auto Show, the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo S Cabriolet, which share their coupe counterparts' 520-horsepower and 560-hp 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engines. That kind of power ought separate a lot of hats (and toupees!) from heads.
The rear-engined Porsches put their power down through all four wheels, which allows them to launch from 0-60 in 3.3 seconds or less (the Turbo S Cab takes just 3.1 seconds), and both of them top out at 195 mph.
The 911 Turbo Cabriolet starts at $160,700, while the Turbo S Cabriolet can be had for a grand total of $193,900 (plus $950 for destination). Is the S model's 40 extra horsepower worth $33,200? We're not so sure, but we imagine Porsche won't have any trouble selling it.
Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.
