1987 Porsche 911 Carrera Coupe
Here goes...
This is a NO RESERVE AUCTION for one of the most iconic, sought after sports cars ever made...A Guards Red 1987 G-50 Carrera Coupe w/ 90K Miles...Power Sunroof(needs cable)...Working Factory A/C...Original and still Guards Red...Black Leather Interior...Southern states 911 that is 100% RUST FREE with a LAZER STRAIT BODY...I found this 911 in a customer's garage in South Georgia...The car had been sitting for 5 years...3 weeks ago, I had every intention of putting this car through a 100%, NO EXPENSE SPARED restoration...Here's what we have done so far...
We flushed the gas tank and added "sea foam" gas and fuel system cleaner/conditioner...10 gallons of fresh 93 octane and she fired right up...2 fuel injectors, fresh GTX 20w50 and filter, and 6 new plugs later, we were running around town in our new found 911...I ordered brand new Euromeister Aftermarket Fuchs 7's and 8's by 16...You will also get the original Fuchs/they are pitted...Also ordered brand new Continental DW's in factory correct sizes 205/55ZR16's and 225/50ZR16's...Original tires were dry rotted...Had the body prep work done to get ready for the paint shop...Had several tiny dings/dents in the body...NO RUST...It is now ready for paint...
Yesterday, my master tech Andrew called me and said we needed to talk...He was taking the valve covers off do a valve adjustment and a broken head stud fell out...It was broken in half and had been broken for a long time...No noise, no issues at all with the engine up to that point...Heck, I had put 75 miles on the car running around town and back and forth to work from the house...I have had a dozen of these cars in the past and this car's engine is spot on with the oil pressure at running temp...He said I might be able to drive it another 10000 miles with no issue...But, he also said I could have a major failure tomorrow...So, my plans for a full restoration are on the back burner...This is where YOU come in...
I have set the initial bid price very, very low...This covers most of my cost involved with the purchase of the 911, the service work, body work, and new parts that come with the car and still leaves plenty of room to finish the car up and have a super nice 911...What is left? Head stud kit...Paint...Driver's side seat cover...Headliner/brand new headliner in the box is included...Sunroof cable(the motor works with switch, just doesn't open and close)...Fuel sending unit (gas gauge inop)...Needs parking brake cable installed (included)...Install new tires and wheels(best to ship with old ones on so the new ones don't get damaged)...Probably needs additional items but this is what I noticed after driving it for 3 weeks...
Brakes, transmission(including syncros), shocks, shifter, and all else works like it should...A/C could probably use a charge, but as I said, I have been driving this car for 3 weeks and it has done perfectly...The only thing that you will notice while driving is that the gas gauge reads empty and I know it has plenty of gas and the sunroof won't open...Everything else mechanically on the car is functioning like it should be...
GOOD LUCK and call me if you have any questions...I plan on letting this auction run until its done...I do have it advertised locally, so it could sell to someone else even if there are bids...I will give the high bidder the opportunity to match the local offer, in the event of a local buyer...AGAIN, GOOD LUCK BIDDING...I have clear GA title in hand...Thank you, Brian Gwaltney 770-898-1061...South Atlanta Motorsports has been selling top quality hand selected, premium luxury and sports cars in McDonough, GA since 2000...Home of the UNREAL356 Speedster Replica, we specialize in "special" Porsche vehicles...Just check us out...Thanks from Brian Gwaltney and South Atlanta Motorsports in McDonough, GA...
On Apr-16-13 at 13:43:54 PDT, seller added the following information:
Thanks for all of the questions and calls...YES, CARFAX IS CLEAN...NO DAMAGE HISTORY...In fact, this Carrera looks like a NO HIT BODY...CARFAX shows the 911 in Salt Lake City, UT in 1991, Lakeland, FL in 2000, and with my guy in GA in 2005...Hood has the VIN Decal near the back...The Porsche Options Decal is where it is supposed to be right by the hood latch mechanism...Other VIN Decal is on the Passenger Door where it should be...I see NO SIGNS of any PREVIOUS PAINT WORK or BODY WORK...
THANKS AGAIN AND GOOD LUCK BIDDING...

Conquest and controversy conclude the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona [spoilers]
Sun, 26 Jan 2014If you don't wish to know who won the 2014 Rolex 24 at Daytona, you should avert your eyes right now. We'll even give you a double-space to skedaddle...
For those of you still with us, the first race in the United SportsCar Championship (USCC) is done, but the discussions about it certainly won't end for a while. Daytona Prototypes claimed the first four overall places, the top spot taken by the No. 5 Action Express Coyote-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Joao Barbosa, Christian Fittipaldi, Sebastien Bourdain and Burt Friselle. The 16th and final caution of the race bunched the field up for an eight-minute sprint to the flag, so the first place getter finished just 1.4 seconds ahead of the No. 10 Wayne Taylor Racing Dallara-Chevrolet Corvette DP driven by Max Angelelli. Third place went to Brian Friselle in the No. 9 Action Express Chevrolet Corvette DP, 20 seconds down. Chevrolet power hasn't taken the overall win since 2003, eleven years later it scores a one-two-three-four. The No. 6 Muscle Milk/Pickett Racing ORECA-Nissan 03 scored fifth place, the top LMP2 finisher.
The Prototype Challenge class win went to the No. 54 CORE Autosport team of Colin Braun, Jon Bennett, Mark Wilkins and James Gue.
Watch Porsche's 918 Spyder break a sweat while hot weather testing
Wed, 19 Jun 2013With five months left until the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder enters production, Porsche engineers are still putting the hybrid sports coupe through a battery of last-minute tests. To give us new reasons to ogle over the car - as if we needed any more - Porsche has released a short video showing the 918 Spyder undergoing shakedown tests in the hot Nevada desert. And you can't drive through Nevada without visiting Vegas, too, right?
Although there's really nothing new to see in this video, it's still fun to watch as Porsche approaches one million test miles logged on this exciting new high-performance model. One interesting part (at around the 0:37 mark) shows the car taking off under electric power and then transitioning to engine power, which results in a mix of whirs and growls as the 918 Spyder switches from a 127-horsepower electric vehicle to an 887-hp hybrid supercar. Scroll down to watch - and hear - Porsche's latest creation in motion.
Porsche testing new 911 GTS
Wed, 28 May 2014Porsche may have one more vehicle in its stable with the GTS moniker, if these spy shots are any indication. They show off the presumed 911 GTS lapping the track - the model meant to slide in under the GT3 to be a bit more driver-friendly but still very fast alternative to a stock Carrera.
At first glance, it might look like any other 911, but the devil is in the details. The most obvious among the differences are two centrally mounted exhaust outlets, rather than the ones closer to the corners on most of the current models. They also aren't perfectly in the center like the GT3. The taillights are also somewhat thicker than the current ones, and the rear decklid is split into three exposed sections.
This is the third time we've seen the presumed GTS. The first was as a coupe late last year. Then it showed up again in March testing in convertible form. Although, that version also sported fender vents at the rear.
