This car is a Porsche 911 built in 1965. According to research it's a 1966 model and is titled as such. It is a major project.
First of all the obvious-someone cut the roof off many years ago. Please don't email me hate messages...I didn't do it-it was done many years ago in the Vanilla Ice era I'm sure. Along with the custom convertible job the rear fenders were flaired and the front fenders had the turn signals filled in with body filler. Late model bumpers were fabricated onto the original fenders-easily removed.
Okay, let's look at the good stuff. It isn't THAT rusty. It was a California car until 5 years ago. Matching number passenger door and passenger front fender, possibly the driver front fender also Rear fenders are original, just modified. Some patches on the floor but nothing major. The rockers show some paint bubbling. The torque tube in the rear, suspension pickup locations, etc all look good. The rear shelf looks okay, one rear seat bottom has been patched. The battery tray looks pretty good, the front suspension pan has only a little rust. Front longhood fenders have simply had the turn signals covered with body filler. Also, they had later headlights installed. Original Porsche door glass. Yes, this car would require work all over but it is NOT one of those cars that is returning back to the earth!
Mechanically-no engine or transmission or rear axles. The car has a tranmission when I bought it but it was not the original and has been removed. The brakes and suspension all look good. Gas heater.
The interior has the original gauges, wood dash trim, 911script. Seats go with the car-not original of course. No rear seat.
The Fuchs shown do NOT go with the car. I'll include some rollers including one date coded 65.
I have a 1968 Porsche 912 that I will make available to the winning bidder for $3500. This will give the buyer all the body parts such as the roof, fenders, etc. plus lots of other extra parts left over. Or, the winning bidder can buy the 912 and restore or resell at his/her leisure.
This car won't ever be a concourse winner but with a new roof (I'd go with a rollcage) and fenders welded on, it would make a great period race car-especially in Europe where 1965 and earlier cars are held at a premium. I have a clear open title good for your state or for export. I have a picture link with lots of pictures. Please email me for the link or if you have any questions.

Porsche 911 Turbo and Nissan GT-R Nismo star in World's Greatest Drag Race 4
Fri, 26 Sep 2014We love Motor Trend's annual World's Greatest Drag Race video. Now back for its fourth appearance, the idea of lining some of the world's fastest cars up for a ten-wide, straight-line, full-throttle run is, well... it's pretty freaking badass.
The lineup this year boasts some impressively fast cars to be sure. The group of ten includes the following darlings: Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru WRX STI and, last but not least, the Volkswagen GTI. Give us any one of those for the weekend, and we're happy to take the keys.
It must be said though, that for a publication that draws as much water as Motor Trend does, there are some big cars that we might expect to be here instead. The Lamborghini Huracán or Ferrari 458 Speciale would have added some exotic flare to the list, and the omissions of the Chevy Corvette Stingray (for the second year in a row) and the Dodge Challenger Hellcat are real head-scratchers.
Autocar pits Porsche 911 Turbo S against Formula 4 racer
Fri, 20 Jun 2014There is a long-running argument among performance car fans: power vs. weight. In one corner you get cars generally with small engines making modest numbers but able to corner like they are telepathic, and in the other there are big thumping mills that are rocketships in a straight line but lumber in the turns. Autocar takes an interesting look this continuum in a recent video pitting a 552-hp Porsche 911 Turbo S against a 185-hp Formula 4 racecar. It hopes to find whether the Porsche's huge power advantage is enough to defeat the better grip and aero offered by the nimble racer.
There's no doubt that the Porsche is an utterly fantastic road car. The 911 Turbo looks mean with all of those intakes to suck in cool air, and it backs up the posture with huge amounts of grip available thanks to its all-wheel drive-system. However, at 3,538 pounds, it's a bit of a porker compared to the 1,135-pound Formula 4 car. The open-wheel car boasts just a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder from Ford and a six-speed sequential-manual gearbox, but it has loads of downforce to make up for it.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the formula car wins in the corners. After all, that's what it's made for. So do you think the massive horsepower superiority of the Porsche is enough to even the playing field? Scroll down to watch the video and find out, and even if you're not curious of the winner the 911 does some mean powerslides.
VW makes $23K on every Porsche sold, more than Bentley or Lamborghini
Fri, 14 Mar 2014It's a good time to be in the luxury car business. In Volkswagen Group's financial report for the 2013 fiscal year, it is revealed that that Porsche enjoyed an operating margin of 18 percent. That means the Stuttgart brand made on average about $23,200 per car sold, according to BusinessWeek. Bentley wasn't far behind, and Audi (which was combined with Lamborghini) posted a 10.1 percent margin. This compares to only around 2.9 percent for the Volkswagen brand.
"Luxury brands are on fire," said Dave Sullivan, an industry analyst at AutoPacific. He said that the average profit margin is between six and eight percent. Brands like Porsche and Bentley have the benefit of competing in rarefied markets. Buyers looking at one their vehicles have fewer models to shop against and don't care as much about price. They can also charge more for options, which further boosts income, according to BusinessWeek.
In a way, we should be more impressed by the continued success from Audi. Its models generally have direct competitors in every segment from the other premium automakers. Plus, their buyers aren't the captains of industry who are shopping for a Bentley. Still, the Four Rings is leading rivals in sales so far this year.
