Numbers matching engine, transmission, color and options to Porsche Certificate of Authenticity. Correct Code #1110, Light Ivory with black. This 5-speed 2.4 liter has its original mechanical fuel injection as well. These T/E cars were quite unique, as being the only year with the oil tank fill ahead of the rear wheel, the first year of the 915 transmission, and the 2.4 liter engine had the E model MFI set up!
This particular example had its top end rebuilt and turbo tensioners installed at 95k. miles.....It's rockers were replaced with a new set from Stoddard, all back in 1999, by the previous owner of 15 years. We just completed a glass out, trim off, repaint, the first we believe, in the original Light Ivory color. We replaced all the rubber seals, rebuilt the targa top, and polished up the trim. The original interior had its seats recovered in 1999 as well, and we just installed a new German velour carpet set, and a re-tuck of a few panels. We also replaced a couple transmission syncro's and seals, replacing the clutch and the rear main seal as well. Although presently riding on new fooks wheels, it comes with five original 15x6 Fuchs with matching 12/71 dates. They are straight and true, but require refinishing, as they had been painted to the 80's era look. It has been freshly serviced up, with all new fluids and tune up...Ready for summer driving!
Every effort has been made to provide an honest description based on our experience with this vehicle, so you may decide weather or not to put forth the effort to examine it for yourself, which is preferred. Please call for an appointment, if you wish to do your own inspection.

Porsche resurrects V8-powered 911 prototype from the Eighties
Wed, 14 May 2014These days, we take it for granted that the Porsche 911 uses a flat-six engine. That's because every version of the iconic rear-engined sports car has had one. Right? Well, for the most part. There was the 912 that joined the original in the late Sixties with a flat-four. And in the mid-Eighties, Porsche toyed around with the idea of a V8-powered 911.
After the first-generation 911 had been in production for over two decades, Porsche began development of its successor, the 964, in the 1980s. And one of its ideas was to use a V8 engine. So it took a 964, borrowed a V8 from Audi, gave it the rear bodywork from a 959 and dubbed it the 965.
The idea was to create a more affordable successor to the 959 that included its advanced all-wheel drive system and active suspension. The Audi V8 would have been replaced with one of Porsche's own design - possibly based on the it had built for Indy racing - but Dr. Ulrich Bez (who was then head of Porsche R&D long before taking the reins at Aston Martin) ultimately killed the project.
The pre-race and first in-race report from Le Mans
Sat, 22 Jun 2013The 2013, 90th anniversary edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans has begun, tragedy marking the opening laps with the death of Allan Simonsen. We're at the track now as a guest of Audi and plan to stay through the evening, and even we haven't been able to find out what caused the accident - the only video is from just after the incident, and beyond the statement from ACO there's been no more news. The Aston Martin in the LM GTE Am class and its all-Danish drivers had taken pole in its class and was one of the favorites to win.
The pre-race report will come first, and even thought we can't spoil the race because we're only five hours into it at the time of writing, we'll put all of the news at the end in case you don't even want the updates.

Porsche Fire and Ice is chilling art born of flames
Wed, 01 Jan 2014Porsche held a contest inviting ten filmmakers to riff on the tagline for the Panamera, "Thrilling Contradictions," in a 60-second film. The winner was an entry called Fire and Ice by director Ross Cohen, a concept that uses just those two elements in a premise as simple as it is rewarding. For his efforts, Cohen will receive a trip to the Chicago International Film Festival, and you might see the short in the pre-movie advertisements in a theater served by Spotlight Cinema Networks.
Porsche did this kind of thing just two years ago, when it asked filmmakers to illustrate the idea of "Everyday Magic". The winner of that contest, Michael Korbel's It's a Magical Life, followed the journey of a young man to husband and father from the perspective of the trunk of a 911. You'll find that video as well as Fire and Ice below.
