 Up for sale is my 1977 Porsche 911S with 993 body conversion.  The car looks very nice and draws a lot of attention in my driveway.  This has been a project car for me for the last several years but with the arrival of my third child, and getting a good deal on a newer 911, I have lost interest in completing the work needed to finish the vehicle.  When I purchased the vehicle, the car was running and driving, but smoked.  After driving it for several minutes, the smoke resolved and the car drove great with transmission, brakes, and engine all functioning properly.  After that, I parked it to finish the body conversion.  Three kids later, the motor will start but runs rough and smokes.  I have attempted to find a Porsche mechanic in town but have been unsuccessful so I do not know what issues the car is having although I expect they are minor.  The car does not run well enough to drive onto a trailer.  I also think a caliper is beginning to stick a little.  The car was stored in a garage in dry west Texas.  Rust is not an issue. 

Exterior:  The car was originally yellow and has been plastidipped the same color to match the door jambs.  The car looks nice from a distance but has plenty of small blemishes up close.  The plastidip can be easily remove to finish out the car however you like.  The lights are in fairly good shape with some small chips in the rear reflector and turn signal.  The lights have not been wired.  The harness is there but the connectors have not been spliced on.  Tires still have some tread on them and the wheels look nice.  The hood emblem is brand new.  The sale will include the parts for the motorized spoiler but it has been removed secondary to clearance issues with the ducting on the motor.   There is a chip in the front windshield but no cracks. 

Interior:  Seats look nice with no rips or tears.  Power windows and wipers function.  Stereo does not function.  Sunroof motor works, but the cable is not functioning.  Apparently this is common, and is fixed fairly easily.  A book will be included that explains the process.  There are a couple of small tears in the headliner that should be easy to repair. 

Engine:  The previous owner states the motor was rebuilt in 1999.  He acquired the vehicle from the garage which sold it to him in a lien sale.  The smog equipment has been removed which improves power and dependability of the motor but will be an issue if you your state requires smog testing for this year vehicle.  The stock muffler is used but modified to 2 out and the exhaust tips are tack welded on. 

Misc:  The battery is a couple of months old and a new fuel pump was installed.  A lot of work has been done on the car but there is plenty left to be done.  The car includes the factory space saving spare and trunk carpet as well as a couple of Porsche project manuals.  Winning bidder may also purchase a carbon fiber RS wing for an extra $300 or a fiberglass Turbo S wing for $200.  Neither are painted to match.  The title is bonded but has no liens.  The previous owner never had the car switched to his name because it would not pass smog in California.  He had owned it since 2000 and I have had it for a few years but did not get the title in my name until recently in order to sell the car.  I will respond to questions as quickly as possible.  I have tried to be as detailed as possible about the condition of the car, but this is a project with many small tasks which need to be completed.  With a little work, this will make someone a fun vehicle.  This is a no reserve auction, so the high bidder takes it home.  Buyer responsible for pickup and shipping.  Thanks for looking and happy bidding.

Meet the man that discovered and restored the oldest existing Porsche

Tue, 11 Mar 2014

Luciano 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.

Watch Jeff Zwart drive his Porsche GT3 Cup Turbo at Pikes Peak in 4K

Fri, Jul 10 2015

There are always fantastic videos documenting the Pikes Peak International Hillclimb, but 2015 is giving us an embarrassment of riches. After seeing clips from some of the record-breaking runs this year, possibly the very best is here somewhat belatedly after the rally. Watching master Porsche pilot Jeff Zwart wind his fire-breathing 911 GT3 Cup Turbo up the mountain was definitely worth the wait. Already no stranger to success at Pikes Peak, this year Zwart won the Time Attack 1 Class with a run of 9:46.243. To make the feat more exciting, his Porsche was outfitted with cameras to perfectly capture his entire race up the course. The external shots truly convey a sense of speed and show how the mountain goes from tree-lined at the bottom to rocky with patches of snow at the top. The film's sublime production shouldn't be too big of a surprise, though, because Will Roegge was director, editor, and among the camera operators for the video. In 2014, he put together a great, short documentary about Zwart's preparation for the mountain and the run, as well. This year was yet another success. At a breezy 4.5 minutes, this clip is definitely a must-see, and the entire thing looks and sounds fantastic no matter how your experience it. However, if you have the capability, the video is also available in 4K. Switching over to the high resolution really makes it possible to pick out all of the gorgeous details. Related Video:

2024 Porsche Panamera; Rivian's surprise; Cadillac electrifies V | Autoblog Podcast #823

Fri, Mar 15 2024

In this episode of the Autoblog Podcast, Editor-in-Chief Greg Migliore is joined by Associate Editor Byron Hurd. They start off discussing a couple of vehicles they've both driven — the 2024 Ford Maverick Tremor and the 2024 Volvo C40 Recharge 2WD. From there, they pivot to Byron's first drive of the 2024 Porsche Panamera, and then from there it's on to more electrified luxury in the form of the new Cadillac Lyriq. After that, it's on to news. Rivian made a big splash last week. Not to be upstaged, Cadillac decided to get in on the action by teasing an electric V model, the Opulent Velocity Concept. After that, it's time for a future classic; this week, it's the Dodge Magnum. They end the episode by spending listener Isaiah's money on some used stick-shift transportation.  Send us your questions for the Mailbag and Spend My Money at: Podcast@Autoblog.com.
