Porsche 912/450186 is one of the earliest know, 912's in existence. The Porsche 912 Registry lists approximately 10 known 912's with a build date older than this one. Though it's exact build date is unknown, production was likely completed in April of 1965. My research has shown that three gauge, painted dash 912's were only made for the first 1500 units of 912 production. This coupled with the direct link to the 356 model range and the 911, make this a rare and unique vehicle. 912's of this era are the "missing link" from the transition of 356 to the 911, arguably the most significant sports car in history. 

This particular Porsche is farm-fresh and ripe for restoration. Delivered in paint code 213, Irish Green, this will be a stunning car when restored. As with many Porsches of this era, it will require floor pans, rockers, suspension pan and some additional rust repair. All of the panels needed for this car are readily sourced from Restoration Design for a reasonable cost. Though much of the interior remains, it is missing a radio or block-off plate, the gauges and the steering wheel has been replaced with what appears to be a period unit. The drive train is missing as well with both engine and trans gone when I acquire it. Though not included in the price, I have available an engine from a 68 912 which had under 70K on the odometer. The engine is currently disassembled, measures standard on the case and crank and includes an NOS set of main bearings for a .010 under crank and standard case. Additionally, I may be able to make available the matching, 5-speed trans for this motor. It was sold awhile back, though it's going unused and I have dibs on getting it back. 

The Porsche is located in Colorado Springs at my shop, Bulli Klinik. Though I will not arrange transportation for the car, I will do what I can to assist an out of state/country buyer. Additionally, I'll be happy to take more and detailed photos of the car once we get a break in the weather. This Porsche is not currently titled and as a result, will be sold with a bill of sale only. $12,500.00

Ferrari Speciale and Porsche GT3 make the trip to Le Mans

Thu, Aug 6 2015

Call it a pilgrimage. Call it a right of passage. The bottom line is that every racing fan should make the trip to Le Mans at some point. All the better if you can do it in style, as Evo has for this latest video. Instead of taking any old car through the Chunnel and along the French countryside to the famous Circuit de la Sarthe, Evo made the trip in the Ferrari 458 Speciale and Porsche 911 GT3. Both are more extreme versions of the already capable sports cars. They're still naturally aspirated, drive the rear wheels through seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions, and both won top honors in Evo's car of the year awards upon their release. And we could hardly imagine better vehicles for the journey. Along the way, the convoy-of-two stopped by the side of the old Rouen-Les-Essarts circuit. Back in the 1950s and 60s it was regarded as one of Europe's finest street circuits, hosting the French Grand Prix five times. It was closed down and paved over in the decades that followed, and is today part of a public thoroughfare – but you can still drive around it and see some of the relics of its former self peering through.

Amelia Island 2013: Porsche 911 swarms the field marking 50 years of rear-engine goodness

Wed, 13 Mar 2013

Perhaps one of the most iconic sports cars in the world, it was no surprise that the Porsche 911 showed up in numbers to the 2013 Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. Although the original 911 launched 50 years ago, the original and current models are instantly recognizable as 911s, and since the 911 has a storied racing background, there were probably just as many racing versions of the coupe as there were street-legal versions.
As the show's 2013 honoree, one of the prime racing examples was a 1970 Porsche 911 S raced by Sam Posey. There were so many cars in attendance, we didn't know where to look, but a 1985 911 Speedster concept and a Porsche-owned, rally-ready 911 Type 953 were definitely among the more impressive standouts. As an added bonus, Jacksonville-based Brumos Porsche had many of its classic racecars on display including a beautiful 959.

Porsche recalls new 911 models over exhaust pipe issues

Thu, 28 Feb 2013

Porsche, though the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, announced a voluntary recall on about 2,200 911 Carrera and Carrera 4 models built during the 2012 and 2013 model years. On cars equipped with the standard exhaust system it was found that the tailpipes could separate from the mufflers and become dangerous road debris; models that added the optional sport exhaust system are not included in this recall.
Affected vehicles were built between March and November of last year, but there have been no reports of the problem on any customer-owned vehicles. Porsche first noticed a cracked tailpipe weld on a test vehicle back in May, and since then has found similar problems on other internally owned vehicles, all with more than 25,000 miles on the clock. To fix the problem, dealers will be replacing the mufflers. Scroll down to read the official notice.
