1969 Porsche 912 Base 1.6l on 2040-cars
Coatesville, Pennsylvania, United States
|
Up for auction is a matching numbers 1969 Porsche 912 Karmann Coupe. Vin number, 129022865 and engine number is 4096003. No COA, but I called Christine at Porsche of America and she said it was matching. This car just came from California and the suspension pan and floors are nearly perfect. Rockers are solid as well as jack points and torsion tube areas. The car was originally painted in desirable sand beige. At some point in time it had been painted chocolate brown. Now its been semi prepped for paint and as you can see from the photos, it has some more small spots to go. I really don't know much about the motor then what previous owner told me. He told me in 2011 he had it rebuilt with a big bore kit and installed weber carbs. He said it still needed a valve grind, and a battery to run.. He lost interest in the project and installed the motor to sell the project. For some reason installed in the engine compartment are two electric fuel pumps and a gas line lope on the mechanical fuel pump. I never tried to start it but I might this week. Has four nice fuchs and brakes seem to be in working order. I bought the car in a package deal and really wanted to keep both but I just cant pull it of so I have to part with it. Ebay will only let me list 24 photos and I have a ton taken already and will take and email any requested shots or areas. $500 non refundable paypal deposit required at the end of auction with the balance to be payed in cash, cashiers check or bank transfer. I will assist with the shipping. thanks and good luck.

2014 Porsche 911 Turbo S
Wed, 04 Sep 2013A Wicked-Fast Street Legal Multi-Tool
Walter Röhrl was carving up the circuit in the Porsche 911 Turbo S like a skilled Jedi Master - and I was sitting next to him, mesmerized by the breathtaking show. I had strapped myself securely into the front passenger bucket of the all-new coupe less than a minute earlier, expecting nothing more than a few quick laps around a track at the hands of another celebrated race driver. Been there, done that. Many times, actually.
Yet this was different. Röhrl was not only calculated and methodical in his approach, but his rally-tuned cerebrum appeared to be actively reading available grip levels while effortlessly tossing the all-wheel-drive Porsche into each corner at gut-wrenching speeds. His hands were moving rapidly, sending tiny steering corrections to the front tires, and he was using every inch of the track to extract more speed. We launched over a curb, dropped a wheel in the dirt and then drifted around a wide off-camber turn. His human precision and focus was astounding, and the performance he was extracting from the machine was just short of breathtaking.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks

$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
