 This is a 1969 Porsche 912 that I rescued after sitting in a garage for 25 years.
It is a perfect winter restoration project.

The odometer reading is 37279, but it has not worked since I owned it. True mileage is unknown.
The speedometer and tachometer, low fuel and warning lights, dash lights, turn signals DO work.
The fuel gauge, clock, and horn DON'T work.
The wipers DON'T work, but I have motor and drag arms from a 1972, 911 that I will include in this sale.


New parts:
Sach's clutch,  pressure plate, throw out bearing, fork guides and bushing.
Shift rod coupler bushings
Changed oil in transmission.
Points, plugs, and condenser, distributor cap and button.
Rebuilt fuel pump with new parts.
Installed a refurbished gas tank from a Porsche dealer.
Some new brake lines.
Four new tires mounted on original Fuch rims from a 1972 Porsche 911.

I have done no mechanical work to the motor myself, but at some point someone has put dual Weber carbs on it.

I patched some holes in the passenger side floor pan with sheet metal and fiberglass just to strengthen it.

This car came stock with factory air conditioning. It has been disconnected.

When getting off the interstate, and sometimes in town, it will backfire. Porsche mechanic believes the carburetors need attention
Sometimes smokes in stop-n-go traffic.
Has some oil leaks.

Body:
Has some rust bubbles and chips in the paint, but there are no large holes.
Body is straight with no dents.
Has amateur paint job.

Interior:
No work has been done to the interior. There is a split in the drivers seat that is covered in duct tape (see pic). Passenger and rear seats are in good shape.  Has Porsche floor mats. Average wear for a 44 year old car.

The pictures make the car look cleaner than it actually is. This car is 44 years old, so don't expect perfection!! The wear doesn't show clearly in the pics.

I cannot possibly list every imperfection about this car. Please contact me with any questions.
I believe it is an excellent car for a restoration project.
This is not a car to buy for your16 year old son who thinks he's cool.

Car runs and shifts well. I often drive it to work, 40 miles one-way, on the interstate with no problems.
It has tight steering and good alignment.

Fun to drive and ALWAYS gets compliments!!

You must make arrangements to pick-up or ship the car.
NO WARRANTY. Sold As-Is.

Translogic 166: Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, Dec 15 2014

In the same month that Porsche announced that its 918 Spyder is sold out, Translogic is getting its first (and likely last) shot at the plug-in hybrid hypercar. Our drive starts off in a very civilized fashion as we tour the 918 Spyder's e-power and hybrid modes, but the fun really starts when the naturally aspirated 4.6-liter V8 engine roars to life in sport and race hybrid modes, augmenting the electric motors with an additional 608 horsepower for a total of 887. We even attempt an impromptu 0-60 test to see if we can match Porsche's gobsmacking official time of 2.5 seconds, but sadly we don't have the room to make a run on its 214-mph top speed. Watch as Translogic host Jonathon Buckley pilots this Porsche around an airstrip in Irvine, CA, with a focus on the many driving modes that set the 918 Spyder apart from anything else in the storied automaker's history.

Watch a Cayenne Turbo S, Range Rover SVR, and Cherokee SRT drag race

Thu, Mar 17 2016

We live in a weird world where high-performance SUVs could win a 60-mile-per-hour sprint against sports cars from just a few years ago. Here, Top Gear sets up a three-way drag race against the Porsche Cayenne Turbo S, Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR, and Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT, and the results show just how quickly these high-riding models can cross the quarter mile. The Cherokee SRT is the patriotic choice among the three, but it's down on power in this fight. Meanwhile, the Range Rover's menacing growl sounds the best, and the Cayenne Turbo S has the most horsepower. You'll have to watch the video to see which SUV will win this battle. Related Video:

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year

Mon, Nov 9 2015

With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
