1958 Porsche 356a coupe. Matching number, CofA on hand. I have owned this car for 6-7 years. It is an Arizona car with the exception of 2 years in San Jose Ca. It is NOT rusted! I am the third owner, the first was an engineer for Hughs Aircraft, kept a hand written log book of all the fuel/maint/repairs to the car. This log will be included. Along with the tool kit/jack/all glovebox books.Sometime around 1977 the car was hit in the driver door resulting in a replacement door and a repaint. A dried-up can of the paint will be included. About this time the car was taken off the road, and it changed hands, I don't know why. The second owner a father/son never drove the car. When I found it, it was sitting on the top of a clean room inside a warehouse, I saw it from the bottom!

The engine was sitting beside it and the original interior was still in it. They got it down for me using a huge forklift. It had been there, inside, out of the sun and weather for about 30 years!

I then set about putting it back of the road: I pulled, cleaned and rebuilt the fuel tank, petcock, lines, pump and carbs(the orig. NDIX with mesh filters) I also did the brakes with fresh master cylinder, reservoir, hoses, wheel cylinders and wheel bearing/grease seals. There are fresh shocks installed front and rear, along with some...not all, susp rubber/bushings. I pulled the glass and replaced the body/window rubbers and added a new Porsche windshield. I n sent the seats to Tony at Autobahn in San Diego for a complete redo and new interior kit including oatmeal squareweave and new black floor mats. I have and will include remnants of the orig interior including the orig. tan floor mats. This car never had a radio and the original ivory radio delete plate is installed(not a repop) There are 5 fresh tires on orig. date matched(4-58, KPZ) wheels. I have receipts for EVERTHING I have done. Please call me with any specific questions. . I also have a 1965 356c, 1967 912, 1973 911t with sunroof/sportseats, 1966 230sl, 1967 250sl,1973 280sel 4.5 for sale Keith 520-404-2875

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911 with some excellent pics

Tue, 12 Feb 2013

The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time, and to celebrate the car's first 50 years, Porsche has released a stunning set of photos showing how far the 911 has come from the original back in 1963 to its current 991 generation. Unlike the recent 60-year photo spread that Chevrolet put together for the Corvette, though, Porsche's gallery only shows the original 911 and the current car.
Each time the 911 is redesigned, the car's front fenders, roofline and the shape of the side windows are key focal points. Even some of the interior cues have remained the same over the years, including the positioning of the ignition key on the left of the steering column and the five-gauge instrument cluster layout.
Scroll down for Porsche's press release breaking down the seven generations of the 911, and be sure to check out our gallery with plenty of high-res pics for you to download as a desktop wallpaper. In fact, we're providing these at 1920-pixels-wide instead of our usual 1280 wide. Enjoy!

Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.

Porsche Cayman GTS in track battle with 996 GT3

Wed, 09 Jul 2014

Here'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?
