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.

Translogic 166: Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, Dec 15 2014

In the same month that Porsche announced that its 918 Spyder is sold out, Translogic is getting its first (and likely last) shot at the plug-in hybrid hypercar. Our drive starts off in a very civilized fashion as we tour the 918 Spyder's e-power and hybrid modes, but the fun really starts when the naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 engine roars to life in sport and race hybrid modes, augmenting the electric motors with an additional 608 horsepower for a total of 887. We even attempt an impromptu 0-60 test to see if we can match Porsche's gobsmacking official time of 2.5 seconds, but sadly we don't have the room to make a run on its 214-mph top speed. Watch as Translogic host Jonathon Buckley pilots this Porsche around an airstrip in Irvine, CA, with a focus on the many driving modes that set the 918 Spyder apart from anything else in the storied automaker's history.

Evo pits BMW M3 against Porsche Macan in drag battle

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

If you want to move five passengers in very rapid fashion and you've got a $75,000 budget, two newly introduced four-door models immediately come to mind - both are the highest performing vehicles in their respective segments. But which is faster off the line, to the 60-mile-per-hour benchmark or flat-out over an even longer run? Evo took both to paved aircraft runway to find out.
In lane one we've got the all-new Porsche Macan Turbo, which boasts a twin-turbocharged, 3.6-liter V6 rated at 400 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. The Porsche is fitted with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, and the 4,244-pound crossover has the traction advantage of standard all-wheel drive. In lane two is the all-new BMW M3, powered by a twin-turbo 3.0-liter inline-six rated at 425 horsepower and 406 pound-feet of torque. It is also equipped with a seven-speed, dual-clutch gearbox, but only the rear wheels of the 3,595-pound sedan are driven. Both the BMW and Porsche arrive with launch control, which helps to remove driver error off the line.
Which automaker's launch control system is better off the line? Does all-wheel-drive grip give the crossover the advantage it needs to overcome its adversary's power-to-weight advantage? Will aerodynamics factor into the results? Which would you put in your garage, and why? The video may surprise you.

Petrolicious studies the purity of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

Water-cooled Porsches are superior to the old, air-cooled models. This really isn't up for debate, despite the mob of Porsche purists, with pitchforks and torches in hand, currently descending on the Autoblog offices. Water-cooled models are more powerful and easier to live with, two factors that make modern Porsches just so darn amazing.
And while we won't hear arguments on anything we've written above, we will say that the old air-cooled models, while not superior, are just, somehow, better. They sound better - a lot better. They're simple, elemental and wildly entertaining things, that just beg for more and more. They rev in a way that forces drivers to work to unlock their power, rather than just push their right foot down. Part of the appeal of air-cooled Porsches, in addition to what we just listed, are the gorgeous cars they're slotted into, like the subject of the latest video from Petrolicious.
Starring a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, this video is a bit shorter than recent ones, but it's no less exciting. This 911, complete with it's sweet-sounding exhaust is the kind of simple, entertaining thing we can watch over and over. Scroll down for the full video.
