1967 Porsche 912 Karmann Coupe

Numbers Matching

VIN # 463155

Engine # 756054

Transmission # 165170

Paint Code # 68-6607-G

Porsche has confirmed that all numbers match and that it came with black leather and wood steering wheel.

I have a Certificate of Authenticity on order from Porsche ( case 35297356) that I will send within  48 hours of receiving.

I will be happy to answer any questions or concerns by phone or email. My number is 907-328-9195 and please leave your name and number if I do not answer.

I believe this to be a Canadian model due to it having the Kilometer Speedometer and the Celsius Temp Gauge, looking up the transmission numbers I found them to be for US/CAN.  Porsche could not confirm this at the time I spoke to them.

I purchased the car from the second owner who has owned it since the  early eighties and who has enjoyed it until now. He said it had been repainted the original sand beige color before he purchased it and had the aftermarket wheels when he bought it.This had been his summer toy for the past 30+ years which he has kept in a garage or storage during the winters and enjoyed during the summer months.

This is a true survivor that has been driven and appreciated through the years. There have been few modifications and this is an excellent candidate for a full restoration or as a daily driver for years to come.

I have cleaned the carbs, adjusted the valves, and performed a tune up.

Car runs and drives well.

I have only test driven and taken this car on a few drives. This car is an absolute joy to drive. It shifts well, goes through the gears as it should, accelerates nicely, and brakes well for a car it's age. You do have to pump the brakes one time to get to them to grab well.

I have taken the best pictures I can to show the condition and finish of this survivor.

Exterior

The body is in real nice shape with minimal rust on the floor pan and under the battery. The rear looks to have had a minor collision with something (the rear bumpers are slightly tweaked).

The rear quarter panels, rocker panels and fenders are all solid and rust free.

There are chips and some peeling in the paint but it looks good and shines up well for it's age. There are signs of repaint from years ago that include tape marks on some of the rubber trim and places where there is peeling in the paint.

There is pitting on most of the chrome but it is all there and in good shape.

The glass is all In good shape for being original. There are some scratches on the windshield but no cracks

Most of the rubber trim is in need of replacement.

Interior

 The seats have been replaced with what looks to be VW seats. They are mounted on homemade brackets. The rear seats are original and in good shape. The driver door panel is rough and shows it's age. The passenger rear window is missing a couple of screws for the latch.

The original rubber floor mats are all there and in good condition with one tear on the passenger side

The gauges are all there but not all working.

The Kilometer Speedometer works but the odometer does not. I did not try the trip meter.

The tachometer works as it should.

The gas and temp gauges work.

The oil, and generator lights work.

The Celsius temp gauge is there but the thermo coupling is wrapped up on the back and the light is not hooked up.

The clock is there but I did not try to get it to work.

The dash pad is in need of replacement.

Top Gear brings together LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918

Mon, Jan 26 2015

Earlier this month, Top Gear released a brief video of the comparison test between three hybrid hypercars we'd all been waiting for: the Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder. The story was done by the print magazine and not by the television show, and the video they released was barely over half a minute long, reserving the full version for subscribers of the iPad edition. Now the British mag has put the full video on YouTube, and while it's still only a minute and a half long – three times the length of the previous teaser – it's packed with electrified exotic goodness. The test surely took some serious wrangling to put together, and though the metal (or carbon fiber, as the case may be) was apparently furnished mostly by private owners, to hear Top Gear tell it, the manufacturers – Ferrari, McLaren and Porsche – were eager and helpful in putting the showdown together. For the final conclusions, we're afraid you'll still have to buy the magazine, but for a rare chance to watch all these three world-beaters on the same road at the same time, you'll want to scope out this latest video clip.

Another cool projection vid, this time with a Porsche 911

Fri, 28 Dec 2012

Porsche has become the latest automaker to take advantage of clever projection technology. The automaker worked up a quick presentation for the 2013 911 Carrera 4S to show off a bit of "motionless driving." The display tracks the sports car from production to back-road caning and city-center cruising, displaying a variety of exterior color choices and wheel options without resorting to a two-dimensional video.
This isn't the first time we've seen an automaker use its new product as a projection screen. Subaru, Hyundai, Lamborghini and others have all done the same, and the trick never fails to be visually interesting.
As you may recall, we got to play with the 2013 911 Carrera 4S back in November and found the machine to be a better daily driver than its rear-wheel drive counterpart. You can check out the projection video below.

Porsche Cayman gets a new face

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

We've already seen photos of the facelifted Porsche Boxster out testing, but we're now seeing these same changes making their way onto the hardtop Cayman coupe. Cosmetically, the next round of Porsche's smallest sports cars isn't vastly different, with redesigned headlamps, LED running lights (like its big brother, the 911), and new taillamps that actually aren't visible on the prototype seen here.
The big news for the updated Boxster/Cayman range is the long-rumored four-cylinder engine. Recent reports suggest we could see four-pots with displacements of 1.6, 2.0, or 2.5 liters, and with output ratings as high as 360 horsepower. Of course, these new four-cylinder mills would be both turbocharged and direct-injected.
It's unclear whether or not the six-cylinder engine range will also be updated when this new Cayman comes to market. In any case, we expect to see it bow in the relatively near future. Stay tuned.
