This is a 911 project car, which needs paint as seen in the photos. The "shell" was painted with all the glass removed, and is finished. The doors, bumpers, lids have been treated on the undersides with POR 15 rust treatment, and need the visual surfaces painted to match the rest of the car. The rear license plate panel is alloy. The intent of the car is to look like an early 911 (door handles, mirrors, headlights etc.), with updated mechanicals.
The following are essentially new: Proper headlights, BT seats (one has a small tear on the base on the lower outside near the rail), headliner, big front sway bar (no rear bar), windshield, factory seals for the front and rear windows.
The engine is a 3.0 from an SC, with Webers, early heat exchangers, and muffler, MSD, Fuel King pressure regulator, Holley fuel pump in the secret compartment in the front near the fuel tank.
The transmission is a '74 915 with the "better" ring and pinion, with a 915 shift lever, alloy clutch (as I remember?), and the 4 bolt halfshafts.
Front brakes are the alloy S ones, rear are the regular small ones that came on the car. Front struts are from an SC.
There is a welded-in strut brace between the front strut towers.
Rust is superficial on the doors, and fenders, and should clean up during painting. The tow hook is solid, as are the jacking points.
The rally lights come with 2 sets of covers. The wheels are the early Fuchs 6 x 15, with Kumho 205/55 tires all new, 3 match since one was ruined by the tire shop and it was replaced with another at their expense as the original tire (1 Ecsta RSX and 3 Ecsta Supra) was not available. The anodizing on the wheels (the black part) is weathered, so is painted satin black.
The headliner was installed and no passenger sun visor holes were made (the visor is included) and the interior lights were removed. Rubber mats are on the floor, the carpet and driver's door seal are bad, the rear seats are worn but there.
The car runs strong I would say, shifts well, brakes well, steers well (but should be aligned I used strings and a toe gauge, and should be really gone through before any long trips, unless you are brave.
The wiring was missing in places, so has been fixed, all the lights, wipers, heater fan, etc work. The rear glass is clear ( no heating element), but the switch is retained, and runs the fuel pump.
On Apr-28-13 at 14:55:39 PDT, seller added the following information:
Note: the fuel gauge doesn't match the sender, so the gauge reads 1/2 full when it's full. I set the odometer and go by that.
Also the seats are BF Torino, not BT (typo), and the cardboard shows how much oil the car leaks after a long run sitting overnight (it's engine oil, not transmission, and comes from the front part of the engine...towards the front of the car). Fuel tank was boiled and coated inside at a radiator shop, and Stabil has always been used over the winter when the car sat.

Meet the man that discovered and restored the oldest existing Porsche
Tue, 11 Mar 2014Luciano Rupolo is an absolutely fascinating gentleman. He was born in France but spent nearly his entire life in Italy as an auto mechanic running his own shop. His grandfather and father instilled a love of sports cars in him that he carried on by historic racing in Italy for decades. He saw his life-long automotive passion repaid when he found and restored the car that might have been the first Porsche registered for the road.
You can spot in his garage a split-window Corvette, Ferrari 250 GTE and other exotics, but Rupolo's most interesting automotive story concerns his Iso Grifo Competizione (pictured above). The sports coupe was found in the Canary Islands as little more than a shell, but Rupolo got help from a prestigious source for its restoration. The result is a motoring masterpiece.
Rupolo is a fantastic storyteller with a captivating, tale to tell. Settle in, scroll down and watch the bittersweet documentary about his life with one of the first Porsches.
2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S
Wed, 04 Sep 2013A Wicked-Fast Street Legal Multi-Tool
Walter Röhrl was carving up the circuit in the Porsche 911 Turbo S like a skilled Jedi Master - and I was sitting next to him, mesmerized by the breathtaking show. I had strapped myself securely into the front passenger bucket of the all-new coupe less than a minute earlier, expecting nothing more than a few quick laps around a track at the hands of another celebrated race driver. Been there, done that. Many times, actually.
Yet this was different. Röhrl was not only calculated and methodical in his approach, but his rally-tuned cerebrum appeared to be actively reading available grip levels while effortlessly tossing the all-wheel-drive Porsche into each corner at gut-wrenching speeds. His hands were moving rapidly, sending tiny steering corrections to the front tires, and he was using every inch of the track to extract more speed. We launched over a curb, dropped a wheel in the dirt and then drifted around a wide off-camber turn. His human precision and focus was astounding, and the performance he was extracting from the machine was just short of breathtaking.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.
