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.

Tesla, Porsche and Genesis top Consumer Reports owner satisfaction survey
Fri, Dec 22 2017Tesla swept Consumer Reports' latest Ownership Satisfaction Survey results, notching the top spot among brands evaluated. Its Model S also netted the No. 1 spot among the top 10 most-satisfying cars. Porsche and Genesis, Hyundai's new luxury spinoff, rounded out the top three brands. The bottom of the rankings was anchored by Acura, while Mercedes-Benz notched the least-satisfying car in the survey with the GLA, proving that the results weren't equally kind to all luxury brands. Jake Fisher, director of automotive testing for Consumer Reports, told USA Today those brands suffered by introducing cheaper vehicles. The scores, on a 100-point scale, reflect whether owners say the vehicles from model years 2015 through 2018 met their expectations and whether they would buy the same car again. They measure ratings in six categories: driving experience, comfort, value, styling, audio and climate systems (what, no cupholders?). Effectively, it gauges how much people liked the car they bought. Reliability is not considered. The Honda Ridgeline outscored competitors in the compact pickup segment by a wide margin, while the Ford F-350 was among the top 10-ranked vehicles in the survey, the first time in at least five years that a pickup made it into the top 10, Consumer Reports said. In the brand survey, Chrysler rose four places to No. 4 on strong customer satisfaction with the Pacifica minivan, while Hyundai tumbled 11 spots to No. 24 and Lexus fell eight places to 18th. Rounding out the top 10 most satisfying cars were the Porsche 911, Chevrolet Corvette, Lincoln Continental, Mazda MX-5 Miata, Toyota Prius, Tesla Model X SUV, Honda Odyssey minivan and Dodge Challenger. Not surprisingly, most of those cars, and indeed most of the high-ranking brands, are those with strong brand loyalty, fan-like followings and/or those that strike a strong emotional chord with buyers. The full brand rankings are below. Tesla (90) Porsche (85) Genesis (81) Chrysler (78) Audi (76) Mazda (76) Subaru (76) Toyota (76) Honda (75) Lincoln (75) Mini (73) Ram (73) Kia (72) Chevrolet (72) BMW (72) GMC (72) Ford (70) Lexus (70) Volvo (69) Dodge (68) Jeep (68) Mercedes-Benz (67) Volkswagen (67) Hyundai (67) Buick (66) Cadillac (64) Infiniti (60) Mitsubishi (58) Nissan (58) Acura (58) Related Video: Green Genesis Porsche Tesla Ownership satisfaction
Chris Harris brings together the 918 Spyder, LaFerrari, and P1
Sat, Nov 21 2015The Porsche 918 Spyder, Ferrari LaFerrari, and McLaren P1 show that a hybrid powertrain can make for blistering performance despite its electric assist. This trio doesn't arrive on track together very often, but Chris Harris assembled these three stars at the Portimao circuit for a nearly hour-long demonstration of their amazing capabilities. So, which one is quickest around the track? Harris provides an answer with in-car video of all three contenders. His team also goes out of its way to even the playing field by sourcing tires independently from Pirelli for the P1 and LaFerrari. With the technical part out of the way, Harris can start having fun by doing his usual slides during the driving comparison. Tiff Needell and Marino Franchitti also eventually show up to provide the perfect recipe for a track battle in these hypercars. If you don't have the time, skip about 14:25 into the clip just to see the lap times. However, those numbers only tell a tiny part of the story. The whole video is definitely worth a watch.
Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness
Wed, 13 Mar 2013Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just as many racing versions of the coupe as there were street-legal versions.
As the show's 2013 honoree, one of the prime racing examples was a 1970 Porsche 911 S raced by Sam Posey. There were so many cars in attendance, we didn't know where to look, but a 1985 911 Speedster concept and a Porsche-owned, rally-ready 911 Type 953 were definitely among the more impressive standouts. As an added bonus, Jacksonville-based Brumos Porsche had many of its classic racecars on display including a beautiful 959.
