I aquired a 68 912 about a year ago. A friend of a friend of a friend new about this car that belonged to a vet that was suffering from agent orange and couldnt drive any more. He had the car for alot of years , but his wife had decided to sell it localy, (word of mouth) but that was a year previous. Well I got a number , and they still had it. So I bought it. It was in a garage covered up pushed aginst the back wall. When I went to look at it  I figured it would be a rusty piece.To my surprise it was complete and mostly orig. Except for later mirrors and steering wheel. The orig. blaupunct was gone. but it was all there. They kept it running up till 4 years previous. Sunroof coupe,, Int. is complete and still decent , including carpet, faded but good. will need a headliner, All glass and trim, excell.  The body has scratches and ding in the hood, but  straight. 15 in. fuchs. Also decent. Good clutch, 5 speed. brakes need attention, as do the tyres. Motor is complete and actually had it fire up for a short time by a tow start. Orig air cleaners with rain hats. Now for the under side. I think it is cleaner than my four old jeep. Floors are awsome for a SWB porsche this year, as are suspension points. Rear seat pans and rear shelf are clean also, as are the rocker panels. Right and left front fenders have a few bubbles but doors and quarters are super clean. Bumpers are orig and in good shape and complete. As is steel ftront valence with fog lite delete plates. What a beautiful solid car to restore and treasure. Around 82000 mi. on the clock. Gauges are clean clean.  Orig spare tyre inc. Tub Vin# is 12805091   Engine # 53425 b1b/1   Generator stand# 616101 217OR.  I have a clean Title  Believe me the car is every thing I said it was

Mark Webber gets early clearance for Porsche departure

Thu, 28 Nov 2013

If there's no rest for the wicked, there's surely even less rest for the wickedly fast. And make no mistake about it, Mark Webber is wickedly fast. He may not have proven able (or given the opportunity, depending on who you ask) to emerge from Sebastian Vettel's shadow after six seasons partnered with the multiple world champion at Red Bull Racing, but he's still won nine Formula One grands prix, to say nothing of the sports car races he won with Mercedes in the late 90s. But now he's leaving F1 to anchor Porsche's new LMP1 program, and according to the latest reports, he's departing Red Bull for Porsche sooner than expected.
Typically an F1 driver is obliged to stay with his team until the end of the calendar year - not just the end of the racing season - helping out with things like promotional events and fine-tuning next year's car. But news.com.au reports that Red Bull has given him early leave, so once the racing action in Brazil is done on Sunday, he's departing straight for Porsche's racing headquarters in Wiessach, Germany.
It won't be Webber's first visit to the facility, having already swung by to have his new seat fitted. But his early arrival will undoubtedly help him and Porsche get up and running ahead of schedule. The move may have been facilitated by a new sponsorship deal that could see Webber carry Red Bull with him to Le Mans, so don't be too surprised to see the energy drink company's logo on the side of the new Porsche once the new racing season gets under way next year, whether in concert with or instead of the anticipated revival of the Martini Racing livery.

Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912

Thu, 25 Jul 2013

Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.

Daughter has great taste, gives stepdad Porsche 914 of his youth

Mon, 14 Jul 2014

Children require a ton of sacrifices; even people without kids know that. Whether it's the time to watch a baseball game or the money just to get there, parents have to give up something for the betterment of their offspring. Of course, once a child grows up, it's finally possible to repay mom and dad for all of their hard work. In the case of Kristin Russell and her stepdad, Dave, that involves a surprise 1973 Porsche 914.
Before he got married, Dave had a sweet, white 914. He even had the money saved up to restore it, but spent the cash on the wedding instead. The Porsche languished in the garage until Dave eventually parted it out and sold it off. Years later, Russell wanted to do something to thank her stepdad for all of the things he had done for her and her mom. The only fitting thank you was an identical 914 to the one that he gave up. Scroll down to watch Dave's reaction of getting his dream car as a surprise Father's Day gift.
