Unique opportunity to complete your own Porsche restoration.  All of the hard work is done: disassembly, rust mitigation, body work and paint work.  The suspension has been repainted, new bushings installed, hardware re-plated and installed.  The balance of the project will be reassembly.  Almost every part has been rebuilt, refurbished or purchased new. I have all receipts for parts purchased and for the rebuilding or refurbishing of various systems.  For a pictorial narrative of our project please Google "Lunde Porsche Project".

Below is a list of work to date:

Body - Entire body stripped to bare metal by top-tier Porsche restoration shop here in Denver.  Front steering pan and battery box replaced with original Porsche stampings. Additionally, both floor pans replaced by drilling out over 200 spot welds and re-installing Porsche floor pans.  Body was stripped to bare metal and finished to a very high level.  Paint is original Pastel Blue as ordered from the factory.

Engine - Original engine disassembled and carefully packed in container. Needs complete rebuild.  A recently rebuilt 1969 912 motor is included with the purchase.  The 1969 motor has been inspected and verified as in excellent running condition by a factory trained Porsche mechanic.  Report included with purchase.    

Transmission - Original 4-speed is included with purchase but internal condition unknown.  A recently rebuilt 1967 5-speed is included with the purchase.  This transmission was sourced here in Denver from a local PCA member who had the unit professionally rebuilt prior to selling it to me.

Brakes - All four calipers have been rebuilt and painted.  Rotors are near new and within spec.  Braided stainless steel hoses are included.

Wheel & Tires - 6j x 15" Fuchs wheels in excellent, mildly refurbished condition are included.  Tires need to be replaced.

Pedal Cluster & Shifter linkage - Both systems have been completely rebuilt, including re-plating pedal assembly before re-assembly.

Gas Tank - Original gas tank shows no leaks but needs to be flushed and sealed.

Windshield & Other Glass - Purchaser will need to source a new windshield.  Side windows, quarter glass and rear glass are in very good condition.

Interior Vinyl - Headliner has been replaced with original German vinyl by well known interior restoration shop.  The balance of the interior parts, upper and lower dash, headliner, parcel shelf, rear seats, door panels, rear side panels are either in excellent original condition or have been refurbished (in German vinyl) by interior restoration shop with the exception of the seats.  The original vinyl seats need complete restoration but an outstanding pair of full leather 1973 911 seats are included with the purchase.

Instrumentation - All instruments, tach, speedo and multi-gauge, have been rebuilt by a VDO specialist.  The clock was cleaned but is not operable.

Miscellaneous - Original hard-to-find parts are present or have been sourced, such as the original break-away rear view mirror and rear quarter window latches.  Nearly every rubber, seal, grommet, gasket, decal, etc. has been recently purchased.  Two new Durrant mirrors, a new Hirchmann antenna, new drive axles, windshield washer motor and related check valves and hoses are included.  Door handles have been re-chromed and ready for re-assembly.  Nearly every original nut and bolt and micellaneous parts have been cleaned and professionally re-plated to factory original appearance.  All nuts and bolts have been sorted, labeled and bagged for ease of reassembly.

Sunday Drive: A tale of old favorites and upcoming challengers

Sun, Oct 8 2017

Sedans and crossovers dominated the attention of our readers last week, led by the completely redesigned 2018 Honda Accord. It's the Japanese automaker's flagship, and people are seriously interested in finding out how good the latest Accord is. So interested, in fact, that no other single story came close to the brand-new Accord in Autoblog reader interest. Moving down the list we find the equally new 2018 Buick Enclave. The three-row crossover has a lot to offer a family, especially one looking for a nice, quiet ride. If you're looking for the exact opposite of nice and quiet, but still want enough room for you and your significant others, the Subaru WRX that we tested last week may be the perfect ride for you. Or, if you just want to drive fast and aren't at all worried about space, there's the Camaro SS. See? We offer something for everybody. From there, we look to the future. Who isn't interested in seeing the first fully electric vehicle from Porsche? And who isn't intrigued to see the Mission E testing alongside a gaggle of Teslas? A brand-new Jeep is always a big deal, especially when it's the revival of a classic nameplate like the Grand Wagoneer. And finally, we have something completely different: the Rezvani Tank. As always, tune in to Autoblog next week for a front-row seat to all the happenings worth following in the automotive industry. 2018 Honda Accord First Drive | Feels like home again 2018 Buick Enclave First Drive Review | Fortress of quietude 2018 Subaru WRX Drivers' Notes | Turbo traditionalist 2018 Chevy Camaro SS Drivers' Notes | Demonstrative power, middling interior Porsche Mission E caught testing against Teslas Jeep three-row SUV caught on public roads — Grand Wagoneer, perhaps?

Some kind of Porsche 911 spied in Germany

Wed, May 20 2015

Seeing a Porsche undergoing testing in Germany – even at the Nurburgring – is hardly a rare sight. But this one has us scratching our heads. Though almost entirely devoid of any sort of camouflage, this particular 911 clearly has something going on. It's got LED daytime running lights (similar in appearance to those on the Cayman GT4) integrated into the front end, extra air vents around back, and a pair of exhaust tips poking out the middle of the rear bumper. In the end, we could be looking at the upcoming facelift scheduled for the 911 that will see it shift to forced induction across the entire range (save for the GT3 and GT3 RS) – or this could be another version of the existing model. Porsche has been known to churn out a steady stream of those, after all. One way or another, though, it looks like we'll be finding out sooner than later – judging from how ready this particular Elfen looks to hit the show stand and showroom.
