This 993 is essentially a one owner car. The original owner purchased the car from Herb Chambers with 1,073 miles
on it in April of 1998. It had previously been owned by a woman in Florida. The car currently has 85,000 and the
original owner can no longer drive. I purchased the car from him and we have been through it to make sure
everything is in working order. The car has new brakes, various switches, belts, plugs, caps, rotors, battery,
other typical service parts and assorted rubber pieces that needed to be replaced. We have been over the car
completely cosmetically. It runs great and looks terrific. The original tool kit and jack are with the car although
the compressor to inflate the spare is not original. The top was replaced at one point and is in excellent
condition. The tonneau cover looks like it was never put on until now.
For some I suppose it's only drawback is that it is an automatic. That said, it gets up and goes whether the
transmission kicks down or if you use manual mode. I have put several hundred miles on it and it is a pleasure to
drive. While it looks great and I would say is much better than average for a daily driver of its age, it isn't
perfect. Although the owner does not recall what damage he did to the vehicle the left side, bumpers and hood have
been painted. Under florescent light you can tell the color is different on the left side but outside it is not
noticeable. In looking the car over closely and cleaning it up there is no indication that the damage was much
more than "skin deep." Knowing the gentleman who owned the car who is an absent minded professor type he probably
scraped the side of the car on a pole or the wall of a garage. There are a few door dings on the right side but
only one that is obvious. It has typical chips in the bumpers and other places on the body all of which have been
touched up. There are two stars that were repaired in the windshield. Over all the interior is excellent with two
exceptions. The carpet on the drivers side is a bit worn on the sill and it is worn through in one spot which was
filled in with a piece from elsewhere on the floor. We repaired the seat back bolster on the left side of the
drivers seat and the seats were dyed. I intend to see if I can get all the service records from Herb Chambers so
that whomever purchases the car has full documentation. An original Porsche cover is included. The car comes with
a copy of the original MA title as the owner could not locate the original. It is signed but not filled out for
anyone purchasing the vehicle in a title state.

Petrolicious details why the Porsche 911 is something special
Thu, 26 Sep 2013The Porsche 911 is a special car, if for no other reasons than it's been continuously produced since 1964, with nearly every generation regarded as being at or near the top of its class. But why the rear-engined icon has done so well among enthusiasts and regular drivers alike can't always be explained easily. To truly understand the 911, you have to experience the whole package, and that means driving one.
While just about every publication has raved about the Porsche, commercial director, race driver, photographer and 911 owner Jeff Zwart explains to Petrolicious why he was drawn to the legend as a young child, and why he still loves them today.
Zwart's professional and personal life are inextricably linked to the 911, and hearing him talk about the car and its history makes for fascinating viewing. Watch the video below to hear Zwart's story and see him drive a couple examples from his collection: an early 911 and the 964-generation Carrera 4 he won Pikes Peak with for the first time - a car that happens to be equipped with the 959 Paris-Dakar's fascinating torque-split transmission. Enjoy!
Gary Cooper's 1935 Duesenberg SSJ fetches record price at Pebble Beach
Mon, Aug 27 2018The 1935 Duesenberg SSJ formerly owned by Gary Cooper sold for a jaw-dropping $22 million over the weekend at the Gooding & Co. Pebble Beach auction, setting a record for the most valuable pre-war car ever sold at auction. It also appears to have become the most expensive American collector car ever sold at auction, eclipsing the very first Shelby Cobra ever made, which sold for $13.75 million in 2016. The Duesenberg was also the lone American-made entrant in the list of top 10 sellers, which was crowded with the names Ferrari and Porsche. You have to go all the way down the list to No. 21 to find the next American car: a 1930 Packard 734 Speedster Phaeton, which sold for a mere $1.127 million. All told, Gooding & Co. said it realized more than $116.5 million in auction sales over the weekend, with a whopping 25 cars sold for north of $1 million, an 84 percent sales rate and an average transaction price of $947,174. Clearly this is how the other half 1 percent lives. Gooding & Co. said there were five world-record sales at the auction. Joining the Duesenberg were a 1955 Ferrari 500 Mondial Series II, which sold for $5.005 million; a 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta, $6.6 million; a 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC Speciale, $3.41 million; and a one-of-two 1966 Ferrari Dino Berlinetta GT, $3.08 million. Oh, and that 1969 Ford Bronco test vehicle we told you about? The one that was rebadged by Holman & Moody as a Bronco Hunter? It sold for $121,000, which was well below the expected range of $180,000 to $220,000. Perhaps it was the presence of all those gorgeous Porsche Spyders and Ferraris that meant collectors weren't interested in boxy, utilitarian off-roaders. View 24 Photos Gooding and Co. had expected the convertible Duesenberg coupe to go for more than $10 million. It was one of only two of its kind built by Duesenberg — the other having gone to Clark Gable — with a specially shortened, 125-inch wheelbase and a supercharged straight-eight with double overhead cams, able to produce around 400 horsepower and a top speed of 140 miles per hour. It features a lightweight open-roadster bobtail body produced by LaGrande out of Connersville, Ind. The car was also owned at one point by race driver Briggs Cunningham.
Translogic 166: Porsche 918 Spyder
Mon, Dec 15 2014In 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.
