Up for sale is my 1983 SC Targa 3.6 Varioram conversion. Regulars to the Pelican site may recognize this as the "Moses Targa", which has many threads dedicated to its high-quality, no expense spared build. I am the third owner of this car, purchased in 2010 after considering a conversion on my own 911SC Coupe (do the math, it's seriously expensive!). I've enjoyed this car immensely during my ownership, and have taken it on many long distance rallies, including the Northeast Mountain Melee in 2013 -- 1300 miles in 3 days, the car ran flawlessly. I would not hesitate to drive it anywhere -- arguably one of the most sorted, well done 3.6 conversion cars out there. The car is happy in traffic, around town or on weekend coffee run blasts to the middle of nowhere. The engine pulls strong in all gears and sounds absolutely incredible. No rust or accidents. Excercised regularly on the weekends, always garaged, Covered and obsessed over. Just an awesome car. Certainly not concours, but excellent driver and priced accordingly.
103K on the chassis, approximately 65K on the engine (not sure of true mileage).

The car was treated to a high quality, windows out repaint prior to my ownership. Usual stone chips on the hood and front bumper, a few scratches on the body which the pictures will show. Overall, I'd rate the paint a 8 of 10, it looks fantastic. The rear fender was damaged by the PO's fence and was properly repaired shortly after I received it. GT Racing Front and rear IROC-style bumpers. The front bumper was replaced in 2012 after being backed into by a careless driver when parked. Factory Carrera Wing Bosch Euro H4 conversion with Sucro relay kit 993 aero mirrors Interior: Cobra Misano seats -- Nappa leather with carbon fiber shelled backs. Fully adjustable and tilt for access to rear seating area. Schroth 4 point harnesses -- still retains factory seat belts and receptacles for everyday driving (labels are expired, I've never used the belts) TRE Targa harness bar. Momo Prototipo steering wheel Pioneer stereo with removable faceplate -- honestly, I've never used it! MB Quart speakers Rennline pedals and dead pedal All gauges work properly including the clock -- note it has a 930 tachometer, but no turbo Rear seat backs currently not installed but will come with the car Wevo Classic Shifter Engine/trans: 1997 3.6-liter from C4S (installed in 2005 with 45K miles). Engine has approximately 65K, but not certain of actual mileage. Engine uses about 1 quart every 1000 miles of spirited driving. No smoking or major leaks. Patrick motorsports conversion kit with lightweight flywheel Sachs power clutch B&B polished stainless headers with heat -- sounds incredible!!! High performance cats - car came from California (I cannot guarantee it will pass emissions testing) Custom Dynomax stainless muffer with dual outlets Cytex chip Carbon Fiber RS heater Tube B&B front oil cooler -- car runs 180 degrees all day long Elephant Carrera fender cooler with fan Elephant oil lines K&N air filer New rear axle assemblies in 2013 915 trans with open differential and stock gearing -- shifts great Wheels and tires: 17" (7.5F x 9.0R) Rota Fox wheels in hyperblack Recent Dunlop Direzza Z1 (215F, 255R) Suspension: Smart adjustable 23mm front swaybar: Carrera G50 style rear bar Turbo tie rods Rack spacer kit Elephant monoballs Elephant polybronze control arm bearings Elephant Polybronze rear Spring plate bushings 22mm front and 28mm rear torsion bars with reinforced mounts Reinforced front struts with Koni Sport adjustable front inserts; Koni Sport adjustable rear shocks Control arms modified to accept 993/964 brake deflectors -- currently not installed. Rennline triangulated front strut brace -- tied-in under master cylinder Brakes: Brembo GTP brake kit, F/R -- (Ferrari F40 front, Lotus Esprit V8 rear) 25mm 930 master cylinder Brake fluid flushed in 2013 Minor issues -- don't they all need something?: Some scratches and stone chips on the hood. Minor bubbling of the paint on the rear bumper, caused by exhaust heat. Bezel for the fresh air blower is cracked, I have a replacement with cables that will come with the car. Targa top is showing its age, I typically enjoy the car without it. Top does not leak, but needs a rebuild -- this is factored into my asking price. Two small stress cracks in deckled grille - these were on the car when I purchased it, didn't really bother me. No radio antenna -- I haven't used the radio once. Engine leaves a dime sized drop of oil after a drive, nothing more, nothing less. Car will comes with many extra parts and a custom car cover. I'm happy to answer any questions. Please contact me via email or PM. robertmoran123@gmail.com |

Autoblog Podcast #344:
Porsche 960 could come with quad-turbo flat-eight engine
Thu, 24 Jan 2013Getting a bead on the target that is the so-called Porsche 960 is not easy, as the target keeps moving. First labeled the 960, then the 961, and now back to being called the 960, it is Porsche's take on a supercar specifically aimed at Ferrari - the latest report in Automobile says that Porsche's internal moniker for it is "FeFi," which stands for "Ferrari Fighter." Because it is expected to cost as much as the top-tier V12 Ferrari, Porsche wants the engine solution to justify the price tag. That means, according to author Georg Kacher, a 3.9-liter, quad-turbo flat-eight engine with 650 horsepower.
Last summer, the engine was mooted to be a twin-turbo flat six. A few months later, the rumor was that it would use the 4.6-liter V8 from the 918 and have about 570 horsepower. This new mid-engine configuration would be quite the leap, giving the 960 more power than the 918 Spyder (pictured) and 911 GT2 RS, and utilize other tech features like four adjustable camshafts and "a complex multistage intake manifold." In this scenario, power would be run through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive.
Build materials are still slated to be a hodgepodge of materials including aluminum, steel, carbon fiber, titanium and magnesium. The boosted flat-eight, all-wheel drive and a 3,000-pound weight could get the 960 from zero to 60 miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds. Since it is looking squarely at Ferrari, the idea that the 960 will be a "four-door coupe" can probably be put to rest. For now.
'Ring Queen Sabine Schmitz battles Ron Simons in Porsche vs Ferrari scrap
Tue, 04 Jun 2013We hope you have seven minutes to kill. RSR Nürburgring recently took the time to pit Sabine Schmitz and her slightly modified Porsche 911 GT3 RS against Ron Simons and his Ferrari 458 Italia in a sparring match around the infamous Green Hell. The clip begins with the two drivers engaging in a smidgeon of smack talk before the two get down to the business of beating each other's doors off around one of the most challenging courses in the world. Simons calls his car superior to Schmitz's 911, while Schmitz says she's up against nothing more than a Fiat driven by an old Dutch man.
Don't hold any punches, you two.
We won't spoil the finale for you, but we will say the tango is worth watching. At the end, the loser calls for a rematch. We can't wait to see that throwdown. Check out the clip below for yourself.
