Up for sale is my 1982 Porsche
911SC ROW project car. I had to list it as a 1980 due to the VIN. Please contact me below if you have any concerns regarding this.
I originally purchased this car to use as a DE/Autocross car, and eventually transition it to a full road racer. Unfortunately, I’ve decided to abandon this project and thin out my “toy cars.” It is a ROW car which means it has the higher compression 3.0L, with bigger valves. According to Porsche it makes 204hp compared to 180hp in the North American model. It was imported through West Palm Beach, FL as indicated on the sticker inside the driver’s door jamb. I attempted to contact the owner that originally imported the car, but I was unsuccessful. I purchased this car in September of 2011 from a body shop about 3 miles from my house (Tampa, FL). The owner of the shop initially told me it needed an engine because it had “a bad oil pump.” I decided to have a local independent Porsche mechanic go with me to further inspect the car before the transaction. We determined the car made immediate oil pressure, within factory specs. I bought the car that day. A week and a half later after a tune-up, valve adjustment, oil change, and 6 new fuel injectors, the car pulled hard and ran like a top. I drove the car back to the body shop and stunned the owner. We also did a compression & leak down test which showed some air getting past the valve seals. Depending on the new owner’s desired use for the car, valve seals may be a good idea before hard competitive use. After driving it for a few months on the weekends without issue, I experienced a failure of the pedal assembly which had corroded. This likely occurred due to water entry through the windshield seal (fairly common). So, as most small projects turn into large ones, I decided to start taking the car apart. This car had fallen into disrepair prior to becoming mine, but as I disassembled it I could tell it had been truly loved at one point. All of the 930S flares were OEM, had been properly welded on, and lead-filled. It also had some goodies like 3-piece wheels (17x8.0/17x10), 965 bodywork, Momo steering wheel, Rennline aluminum foot rests, etc. The only rust was just below the pedal assembly, and in the cowl (the result of a poor Maaco-esque paint job that had trapped moisture around the body seals). To date, all this has been resolved. The hole in the floor was just big enough to fit a few fingers through, and has been skillfully patched. The pedal assembly was also pretty rotten so I replaced it with a factory unit and upgraded to the bronze bushings. The cowl was also patched on both sides near the fender seals. The car was left in bare metal and clearcoated so there are no surprises for the new owner. The passenger side quarter panel is the only one I had a chance to straighten & prime. I have full pictures of the process which I will send upon request. The sunroof was also sealed using a steel panel from FennLane Motorsport in the UK. It was spot welded, all-metal filled, and skim coated. A roll bar (SCCA/NASA/PCA legal) from Patrick Motorsport was also installed, and the full interior sprayed white. Over the past couple months
I’ve toyed with the idea of selling the car, and even listed it on thesamba. However, I decided the time has come to let her go.
If you have additional questions, or would like to view the car in the
Tampa area prior to bidding, please message, email, or call me to discuss. Good Luck and Happy Bidding!

Force India F1 driver Nico Hulkenberg will drive a Porsche at Le Mans
Mon, Dec 1 2014Sahara Force India Formula One driver Nico Hulkenberg is officially part of the Porsche factory team for next year's 24 Hours of Le Mans; the last time a current F1 driver got permission from his team to compete in the world's biggest endurance race was in 2009 when Toro Rosso let Sebastien Bourdais pilot for Peugeot. That will make it an even busier May and June for Hulkenberg, who will get to know the 919 Hybrid in race trim by driving the 6 Hours of Spa on May 2. He'll follow that with two F1 races in May, then do the Le Mans practice day on May 31, race for Force India at the Canadian Grand Prix on June 7, be in action for Porsche at Le Mans the next weekend, then back in a Force India the following weekend in Austria. Hulkenberg is the first driver to be named for Porsche's third LMP1 in next year's race, and we already know that former F1 colleague Mark Webber will be in one of the other cars. The other two drivers joining the German haven't been named yet, but speculation is that Porsche GT drivers in the manufacturer team are on the shortlist. Numerous observers also think it could be a suitable job for a certain Englishman who might have competed in his last race for McLaren...
Porsche 911 to drop naturally aspirated six-cylinder engine
Thu, May 28 2015Rumors that the next-generation Porsche 911 will be completely divorced from naturally aspirated engines are picking up steam. Now, Road & Track is reporting that not only will the next 911, code-named 992, have a turbo-only engine lineup, but that the base Carrera and Carrera S will add the force-induced flat sixes as part of a facelift later this year. R&T only cites "sources familiar with the project," which claim that turbocharged flat-sixes will be at the core of the 992's engine range, alongside a plug-in-hybrid model. A four-cylinder 911 remains unlikely. What's most surprising, though, is how soon Porsche will introduce a turbocharged base-car lineup. Road & Track claims the blown flat-sixes will be added as part of a facelift coming before year's end. Perhaps unwilling to risk the further ire of purists, the current car's seven-speed manual transmission will continue to be sold, alongside the company's excellent PDK automatic transmission. As for when this facelift will happen, the 2015 Frankfurt Motor Show in September seems like the most obvious date.

Porsche names new motorsport chief
Fri, 11 Jul 2014Though it may have expanded into crossovers and sedans, Porsche is still a company with racing at its heart. You might even argue that Cayenne and Panamera sales only serve to fund the company's motorsports activities. Competition-spec 911 coupes still make up a large portion of the grid in any GT racing series, and those activities are presided over by the Porsche GT division (separate from its LMP1 program), which has just announced a changing of the guard.
Porsche's GT unit - which is responsible both for racing models like the 911 RSR and road-going models like the 911 GT3 - has until now been steered by Hartmut Kristen (pictured above, left) in his capacity as Vice President of Motorsport at Porsche AG. During his ten-year tenure, Kristen gave birth to the RS Spyder that competed in the American Le Mans Series and the pioneering 911 GT3 R Hybrid. He also fostered what Porsche characterizes as "arguably the most comprehensive youth development program in motor racing" and saw the marque return to Le Mans last year with a dominant 1-2 class victory.
Kristen, now 59 years old, is leaving the German automaker, but will remain an advisor to the company's R&D department. Taking over as VP of Motorsport will be Dr. Frank-Steffen Walliser, who has until now been head of the 918 Spyder project (a responsibility he will continue). Walliser (pictured above, right) was previously Porsche's general manager for motorsport strategies and will now be responsible for Porsche's GT projects on and off the track, while Fritz Enzinger continues at the helm of the LMP1 program in pursuit of better results next year than the 919 Hybrid achieved at Le Mans last month.
