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 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 acquires ANDIAL, will integrate with in-house motorsports

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Porsche has purchased longtime motorsports and tuning house ANDIAL.
The Fountain Valley, California-based tuning house ANDIAL has been around since 1975, when it was formed by the Arnold Wagner, Dieter Inzenhofer and Alwin Springer (the company got its name by combining two letters from each of their names). The three men met while working in a Porsche dealership in Southern California and then left to start a business that would put Porsches in victory lane all over the country.
Porsches prepared by ANDIAL won IMSA GT and Supercar Series championships, the SCCA World Challenge, four Pikes Peak class titles and the 24 Hours of Daytona six times. Alwin Springer left the company in 1997 to run Porsche Motorsport North America until 2004 and remains a consultant with PMNA, Wagner passed away in 2011 and Inzenhofer plans to retire this year. ANDIAL is still a going concern, Inzenhofer presiding over a scaled-down engine parts and restoration business. But Inzenhofer is retiring at month's end, making it a good time for Porsche to step in and take over the company's operations.

LaFerrari, McLaren P1, Porsche 918 and Agera R take to Assen

Tue, 10 Jun 2014

It's the show-down (sort of) we've all been waiting for. The battle of the hybrid hypercars from the performance powerhouses of Europe: Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder. No one publication has managed to get their hands on all three just yet, but this video has - and with a Koenigsegg Agera R thrown in for good measure.
The video was shot by our (unrelated) Dutch compatriots at Autoblog.nl at the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. The track has played host to Champ Cars and all manner of racing bikes, but this could be the ultimate grid of actual production machinery that's ever lined up behind its start/finish line. Shame the weather was rainy and this unsurpassed array of supercars weren't really racing - more showing off for the crowds. But what a show it was. Scope out the footage in the video below.
