1971 Porsche 911T Hotrod Targa
Originally I purchased this car with a vision to create a drivable work of art which I could enjoy and work on
over time. Roughly 11 years ago I sought out a clean original early 911t which needed a restoration, but would not
be hurt by modifying it from the original equipment. Part of my criteria was a clean little rust body, T model
targa in Viper Green, Light Yellow or Gulf Blue. This particular car is from California originally and had very
little to no rust at all and is light yellow. I purchased it as a running roller, meaning it had all the body
panels a motor/transmission, but little else. All of the original interior and trim were not present on the
vehicle when I acquired it. Since then I have rebuilt everything on the car except the long block engine. My goal
was to make a modern interpretation of an early 911 similar to a Singer which could be driven any time you turn
the key, and functioned like new.
The body of the car has been modified. All the external trim has been shaved, so all trim holes were welded shut
and shaved over. The rear fenders were flared with fiberglass RS replica flares. At the time I did the body work
steel RS flares were out of production and hard to acquire. Since then this has drastically changed and metal RS
flares are available again from Porsche and the aftermarket. All other panels on the car are original metal, but I
do have a fiberglass ductail I will include in the sale as well. Pictures of the car with and without the tail are
posted.
All of the turn signal lens have been replaced. The original headlights were backdated to 1967 911 lenses, but
with HID balasts and projectors. Unlike the original 911 headlights, these work and allow driving at night safely.
Not to mention they look a little better.

Driving the Panamera and Mike's Rant | Autoblog Podcast #487

Thu, Sep 8 2016

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below. Remember, if you have a car-related question you'd like us to answer or you want questionable buying advice, send a message or a voice memo to podcast at autoblog dot com.

Some days at Autoblog are better than others. And in this episode, we talk about those days. Specifically, the days where we get to drive supercars. Mike Austin, Greg Migliore, and Alex Kierstein join up in this episode to talk about driving the McLaren 720S, Ford GT, and Porsche 911 GT3. We also drove some less-super, but still notable cars that we talk about at the top of the show. And as always, we play the game Spend My Money where we get to tell readers what we'd do if we were them. We had a lot of fun with this one, we hope you enjoy listening to it. The rundown is below.

Watch the incredibly complicated operation of Porsche's new targa roof

Tue, 14 Jan 2014

Despite Porsche having claimed the name, targa tops are nothing new. In addition to the semi-roofless version of the 911, plenty of cars in the past have used removable roof panels - the new Corvette Stingray has one (as have prior generations), and this type of open-air experience has been available on past vehicles like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Honda Civic del Sol.
But when Porsche took the top off its brand new 911 Targa here at the Detroit Auto Show, it was indeed cause for pause. Simply put, this is one of the most complicated and intricate electronic roof panel removal techniques we've ever seen, save perhaps, for the setup found on the Japanese-market Civic del Sol from the 1990s.
We won't spoil the video for you, but basically, rather than just the roof panel coming off, the entire rear glass area lifts away the body in order for the small section over the passenger compartment to slide back. This has to be incredibly expensive to repair once it inevitably breaks. And we highly doubt you'll be able to operate this mechanism at any speed.
