1975 porsche 911 s. lots of details. will try to list as best as I can
this car was parked by previous owner in 1995. it was parked in a controlled environment no rain sun etc.
I purchased the car in january of 13. took it to a porsche mechanic and he started working on it
here is a list of what he did
10.5 hours labor removed timing chain covers and inspect tensioners. replace mechanical tensioners with used ones. removed valve covers check cylinder head torque and adj valves check exhaust valve guide for wear resurface and clean valve covers and replaced gaskets. replaced rear deck strut. replaced front struts for front hood. replace alternator belt install pop off valve check compression replace spakr plugs changed oil with additive
compression is as follows cylinder 1 140 2 was 125 3 was 130 4 was 130 5 was 125 6 was 135 keep in mind this is after it was sitting for around 18 years. I have driven the car 1500 miles since this procedure. it runs great. but this was the ppi at that time. in march
3.0 hours remove test and clean fuel injectors remove clean test and re calibrated warm up regulator lube accelerator linkage pivot points at pedal assy bell housing and top of engine
1.5urs labor charging system. replaced alternator and voltage regulator
3.4 remove and rebuild rear brake calipers. flush and replenish brake fluid
1.5 labor remove ac compressor and brackets smog pump and bracket and plumming replaced fuel sender
that bill was nearly 2800 dollars labor and parts.
also replaced with a new fuel tank. and 4 new tires. 205 60 15 falkens. cleaned and replaced fuel lines that needed replaced
so all the parts were replaced and have been driing the car for 1500 miles it starts runs drives. performs great and stops great
this is a great car I just have too many cars. thinning the heard a little.
the car was d escribed in detail on pelican porsche dot com and I had a lot of help. I was told it was a silver anniversary edition
but I never sent the paperwork in the have it verified. so that is up to the new owner. if it sells.
This porsche has been here in the valley for years. it supposedly was wrecked at the front end at one time. the chin in the front was hit and it was repaired. but it was repaired badly the crinkled spots are right behind the old gas tank. and in the front corner and the front chin. there is a spot back by the deck lid where there was some repair done as well. I didn't think it was that bad. but it did get hit at one point. the car tracks nicely so I don't think anything was done to any of the steering or anything.
I was given this whale tail. and I installed it. it wasnt realy fun to line the holes up that I had to drill. but it is installed and I am including the original engine cover if you desire. if you choose to take the whale tail off. there will need to be some holes fixed. as I had to drill some to get it to fit. I am including the air compressor and extra stuff like condenser etc. that I took off. I wanted this to run as cool as possible. so I took it off
I have a gently set of used rear shocks and brand new set of front ones. that should fit. the rears are billstein and the front ones were ordered to fit into the front. but they are not installed. but they need to be
windshield wipers work. headlights and all other lights work. wiper fluid workes but the headlight wiper fluid won't spray. needs a motor
the issues I am having with thie car are... the sunroof worked then didnt. it was a fuse was dirty. so I got it fixied again. worked perfect. now it doesn't suspect a fuse or something. as the motor was checked and it was fine. we replaced a sunroof switch as well
hot restart. being that I replaced the warm up regulator and the fuel accumilator. after a long ride. you need to have the hand accelerator lifted as to give it gas. this works on a hot restart every time. if you don't it will just crank. kind of confusing why. but I replaced lots of stuff to fix that particular problem. new fuel pump and the check valve is fine. etc.
all in all I have put tons of money into the car in only a few short months that I have owned it. I love it. but I have a 39 chevy coupe and a 67 camaro and need to sell one of my toys. if it doesn't sell. oh well I tried.. ha! sold as is where is. no warranty
was told it had a repaint at some point. it has some flaws knicks and rock chips. but it is nice. could use a new paint job.
blaupunkt stereo works perfectly. am fm radio. was told the rear speakers were an add on? the interior speaks for itself. back has a couple little areas where mice ate some fabric unfortunately. the passenget seat is starting to become unstitched doen the middle. horn works all windows work. glass all seems fine. another area is the engine it will leak out of the valve cover when sitting a little. and right onto the exhaust. smells a little. was told I needed some 930 valve covers. that would fix it> but I didn't. nice s teering wheel. wooden with a name etched into the front side. nice ride. gauges work as far as I can tell. new fuel sending unit. so fuel gauge works. spedo is funny. it wont register until about 20 mph then it is fast. example at 80 mph it records 90 mph the car handles really nice at speeds of 90 and I wont say how fast I had it. but it is always handled great. dash looks great. oh in the passenger foot area. I don't know why. but the panel was cut and I think someone was trying to access the rear of the front compartment? pics to follow. it is covered up. and back 2 speakers work. and the fron one is disconnected and one is missing.
this is not a show car. but It is nice and a real head turner. please don't expect a show car for what I am asking. ask all questions and I will see if I can get a video of the car running. I can text a video. but don't know how to add a video here. let me know if anyone has any questions ok? thanks and good luck
thought of a couple more things. it has a tool kit. rear view mirror fell off. it is included. and the tranny shifts into all 5 gears and reverse. the porsche seems to work better if it is fully warmed up. if I take off and the car is cold it seems harder to shift. especially going from first to second. when I hit the clutch it wants to switch gears quick. and sometimes it is hard to find third. but minimally when it is warmed up for some reason.

Porsche looks back on very first 911 Turbo
Wed, 11 Jun 2014Porsche has really hit on a winning formula with its series of videos going inside its vault. So far, we've seen the V8 911 prototype, mid-engine test mule and aerodynamic prototype. The company is sticking with the 911 theme in the latest entry, but this time it's an actual production car - the very first 911 Turbo ever made.
Being the first Turbo would make it important enough, but the car was also a birthday present for Louise Piëch, daughter of Ferdinand Porsche and sister to Ferry Porsche, and she regularly used the car. The family didn't just hand her a random car off the assembly line, either. She got to make it her own with some interesting modifications. She supposedly even painted landscapes from inside the car.
You have to wonder what Piëch thought of her present. The early Turbos had a reputation for being a bit of a handful to drive. The boost tended to bring the power all at once, which wasn't always welcome when cornering. She deserves some honor just for driving the car on the curvy, alpine roads. Scroll down to learn about this important Porsche, and we can't wait to see what car the brand showcases next.
Hyundai, Porsche top J.D. Power APEAL study
Thu, Jul 24 2014Just as they did in the Initial Quality Study, Porsche and Hyundai have taken the premium and non-premium crown, respectively, for the 2014 J.D. Power APEAL study. This is the tenth consecutive year for that Porsche has been rated the best premium make in the APEAL study, which attempts to figure out how pleased owners are with their purchases. For 2014, it asked 86,000 owners of MY2014 cars to rate their vehicles in 77 different categories 90 days after their initial purchase. The resulting figures were plugged in deliver the APEAL score, which is rated on a 1,000-point scale. The industry average sits at 794 points for 2014, although that's a one-percent decline over last year's rating. In this year's study, premium brands averaged 840 out of 1,000, while non-premium makes average 785. For their part, Porsche netted an impressive 882 points, while Hyundai earned an 804. Interestingly, only four non-premium brands (Hyundai, Ram, Volkswagen and Mini) finished above the industry average for 2014. It's also interesting to see the clear delineation between premium and non-premium brands, with an eight-point gap between the non-premium champ, Hyundai, and the lowest-rated premium brand, Volvo. Porsche and Hyundai weren't the only automakers to take home recognition. Dodge managed to tie Porsche for the most segment awards, with three. The Challenger, Charger and Dart all topped their market. There were a number of two-segment winners, as well, with Audi, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan capturing a pair of segments each. Scroll down for the full press release from JD Power on this year's winners. Automakers Struggle to Impress Owners with Increased Usefulness of In-Vehicle Technologies And Features on All-New and Redesigned Models Dodge and Porsche Each Receive Three Segment-Level Awards; Audi, Ford, Mercedes-Benz and Nissan Each Receive Two WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif.: 23 July 2014 - Although manufacturers are putting more and more technologies and functionality in their new and redesigned models, satisfaction with these features is not significantly higher among owners of those models than among owners of carryover models, according to the J.D. Power 2014 U.S. Automotive Performance, Execution and Layout (APEAL) StudySM released today. The APEAL Study, now in its 19th year, serves as the industry benchmark for new-vehicle appeal. Owners evaluate their vehicle across 77 attributes, which combine into an overall APEAL score that is measured on a 1,000-point scale.
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.
