JUST RECENTLY OUT OF 25 YEAR STORAGE! ALWAYS GARAGED! ALL GONE THROUGH AND SERVICED! RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT! Up for auction with NO RESERVE!!! is a true, rust free, California 1966 Porsche. Looks can be deceiving on this beautiful Porsche. Changes were made throughout the early 1980's and is not your average stock original Porsche. We have a poster board of this car in magazines and also a few pics of the car before it was completely stock to see it was a perfect unmolested rust free candidate. I understand that today someone would be hung for doing such a thing to such a nice original car, but you have to remember this was started in the early 1980's when you couldn't give these cars away. The concept was to improve and enhance the style and appearance and increase the power capability. It is most obvious in the engine compartment where a Chevy 350 V8 now resides as the power plant for this car. The engine runs well and sounds great. Parts for routine maintenance are easily available and economical. This makes most Porsche owners envious. What makes this so car so cool is you never have to smog it in any state!! That alone is worth tons!! To do this properly and achieve a vehicle that looks and performs like a factory made product, hours and hours of time and experience are in this car and it shows. The end result is a very uniquely styled and preforming Porsche. The body has a 930 Carrera body kit which consists of turbo flares front and rear, a front bumper with air scoop, rear bumpers, whale tale, right and left lower side rails, right and left turn signal lamps, right and left mirrors, right and left tail lights, left side rear fog lamp and center Porsche insignia. Only the seats, some gauges, and the steering wheel have been changed on the interior and the rest is original to the car in amazing shape!! The seats are now Recaros. The fans, water pump and gauges are all electrical. The gas tank has been modified to accommodate the new radiator. The flow of the radiator is left to right and has dual 10's fans mounted on a triple row core radiator. The radiator has a hand-made sheet metal housing that was added to improve the appearance. The stock Porsche engine was replaced with a Chevrolet 350 V8 which fits perfectly. Everything else is stock Porsche. Porsche motor mounts, gas, throttle and adapter plate have been hand fabricated using the stock 350 V8 motor mounts. The difference in weight is only 10 pounds. Mechanical gauges are located on the upper right hand side of the engine bay. The distributor cap is a crab type for easy removal and replacement. The suspension is stock Porsche. The trans axle is also stock Porsche. The exhaust system is custom. The 350 V8 has headers flowing back through turbo mufflers. The fuchs wheels are polished aluminum wrapped in BF Goodrich 160/60/16's in the front and monster 280/70/15's in the back. All four corners are disk brakes. The transmission shifts smoothly through all the gears and there is plenty of pressure on the clutch. The paint is in good condition for its age and shines up nicely. There are a few little nicks here and there from normal driving. The glass is in good condition with tint and no cracks. The doors close properly and the windows roll up and down as they should. The head lights work, the tail lights work, the signals work, the brake lights work, the fog lamps work and the high beams work, the gas gauge has seemed to quit working. This car is a blast to drive and is very unique compared to other early under-powered Porsches' out there. It is a sleeper, no one will have any idea there is a V8 in there until you step on the gas. The interior seats are now Recaros and are a fantastic upgrade to the originals. The back seats are original to the car and are perfect. The carpet is in great shape and clean. The cell phone from the 1980's is included with the car and a great conversation piece! This is your chance to get not only own a unique Porsche, but a CLASSIC Porsche at the same time! A Porsche that you could use everyday if you wanted to or weekend cruises!

Leno, Seinfeld and a Porsche 356/2 featured in latest CICGC
Sun, 19 Jan 2014In the latest kaffeeklatsch known as Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee, Jerry Seinfeld pulls Jay Leno out of his garage for a trip to Jones Coffee in Pasadena, CA. The NBC funnyman we've lately seen driving two guest Porsches in his eponymous garage this time takes the passenger seat in a 1949 Porsche 356/2, one of early all-aluminum, hand-built coupes - still in 100-percent original condition - built in Gmund, Austria and nicknamed "Gmunds."
The comedy veterans have known one another for 35 years, so the episode is rich with stories of The Good Old Days. Leno says it is also the first time he's ever had a cup of coffee, and for obvious comedic reasons they start with the civet-stained beans made famous in The Bucket List. You can watch Leno take his first sip below, and have you haven't heard the joke about the goat and the anvil, scroll on down for a listen to that and one or two more jokes besides.
Porsche releases new images of LMP1 racecar
Mon, 26 Aug 2013Porsche has released another batch of images of its LMP1 competitor preparing for its debut season in 2014. This isn't the first we've seen of the new car, as June saw four images of the new racer undergoing testing. Where those images looked merely like someone taking pics during the test, the 11 new images seen above have all the hallmarks of highly polished PR shots.
That aside, the camo-covered cars still provide another look at what the new LMP1 car will look like when it arrives next season. The taillights follow the example set by Audi, by vertically mounting ultra-thin LEDs on the tips of the rear wing, while the LED headlights sport the four-prong look that Porsche has been pushing of late. Besides those two items, its difficult to make out many details due to the amount of camo.
Porsche's LMP1 effort will be focused on the FIA World Endurance Championship, which will see the revered brand return to the top flights of the 24 Hours Of Le Mans with F1 ace Mark Webber behind the wheel. As we've mentioned before, the German brand has set up a dedicated microsite that will cover its newest racer's progress.
Jay Leno chats with Magnus Walker about his 1972 Porsche 911 72STR
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Magnus Walker has stopped by the Big Dog Garage again to pay Jay Leno a visit in the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage. This time, the Porsche builder brought along his 1972 911 72STR 002. Walker calls the machine his best build to date, and the car is a rolling "best of" from Porsches past, rocking some of the more attractive elements pulled from a wide arc of 911 model years. Of course, the machine also wears a few signature Walker touches, including flush-mount turning indicators, a center-hood fuel filler and plenty of louver work.
Unlike some of Walker's other creations, the 72STR 002 is clean enough to lick. Leno seems suitably impressed with the creation, and while apparently isn't typically a fan of Porsche models in general, Walker's tastefully modified 911 has him singing a different tune. You can check out the car in the video below.
