Here is a 1962 T6 cabriolet with hardtop restored over 5 years by a longtime professional bodyman for his own personal car. The car had been in storage for nearly 20 years when he acquired the car which was in need of restoration due to a rusty floor pan, all original panels being intact with little body damage (small dents, no major accidents). He meticulously disassembled the car down to the bare chassis removing all rust and properly installed new floor, longitudinals, closing panels, and complete battery box. Any area disturbed in the process he sealed to prevent any rust and leaded in any closing area affected. Carefully prepared and painted over a two-year period during which he tracked down a complete set of disc brakes which he then rebuilt and installed to avoid using the stock B brakes. In order to provide a stronger and more reliable drivetrain, he also installed a 912 engine using C spec Zenith Carbs adding the optional electric tachometer. As his own personal car, he saw that he would never drive it in inclement weather and decided to omit the heating system - no J boxes, headers only with stock exhaust. The interior he put back stock with charcoal squareweave german carpets with black leather seats, new headliner in the hardtop. This car has only a hardtop without a soft-top. For easier starting and better lighting he also installed an 8 volt battery and had the regulator adjusted to provide the greater output and reliability. This car was built to be driven on a regular basis with performance and reliability. The restoration was completed 5 years ago and has less than 500 miles.

Porsche tuners 9ff, SpeedArt going bankrupt
Thu, 19 Sep 2013Times are tough in Europe right now, and that unfortunately has reaped disastrous consequences for some of its smallest niche automakers. Gumpert, Wiesmann, Artega and Lola have all filed for bankruptcy this year, and it appears that tuners are not immune to the tough times, either.
Word coming in from across the pond suggests that 9ff and SpeedArt - two of the biggest names in Porsche tuning - have filed for bankruptcy as well. 9ff is best known for the GT9, a radical hypercar barely based on the 911, while SpeedArt was once of the foremost tuners of Porsches.
Fortunately there are still plenty of tuners ready to take a wrench to your Elfen, but the reported demise of these two makes the market a little bit smaller and - for Porsche enthusiasts - maybe the world a little bit lonelier, too.
Porsche updates 919 Hybrid LMP1 for 2015 assault [w/video]
Fri, Mar 27 2015Last season, Porsche returned to the top level of endurance racing with the 919 Hybrid, picking up a mantle that has seen the German marque win the 24 Hours of Le Mans a record sixteen times – more than any other manufacturer ever to compete at the legendary French race. Of course, Porsche didn't beat its sister company Audi right out of the box, but managed to win the last race in the FIA World Endurance Championship in Brazil before the season was done. This year it undoubtedly hopes to do even better, and this is the machine with which it will endeavor to take the top honors. Newly revised and optimized for the 2015 season, the new 919 Hybrid was just revealed on the eve of the first test session of the season at the Paul Ricard test track in the South of France. It may look largely the same as the model it succeeds, but benefits from numerous advancements made to help Porsche catch up with Audi and Toyota. For starters, Zuffenhausen has opted to step up to the eight-megajoule category, favoring the electric side of its hybrid powertrain over the internal combustion engine. So the compact 2.0-liter turbocharged V4 now drives in excess of 500 horsepower to the rear wheels, and the electric motor – powered by two energy recovery systems and a liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery – kicks in upwards of 400 hp to the front wheels. The rest of the package has been comprehensively updated as well, giving it a lower weight, improved rigidity, revised suspension and reshaped aerodynamic elements. Porsche will field two cars at most of the races this season, but will increase its team to three cars for certain races – one in black, one in white and one in red. Following the "prologue" test session at Paul Ricard this weekend, the season kicks off with the 6 Hours of Silverstone on April 12, when the new Porsche 919 Hybrid will take on the similarly revised Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and Toyota TS040 Hybrid for the first time in earnest.
