This is an all original late 1967, early 1968 Porsche 912 Coupe. Engine number matching to the car is #1281089, Paint code 68-6808-G and Veh ID # 12801098, compliments of the 912 Registry site. This is a ONE Owner car since he bought in 1968. It is all complete , Five gauge, Four speed I think, four cylinder model. It last ran over 10 years ago, when it was placed in storage in High Desert California. The owner stated that the engine was rebuilt few years prior before the storage of the vehicle and due to his health , he was no longer able to enjoy the Porsche. It has all five matching original Porsche alloy Fuchs wheels with correct serial numbers on all of them. I was advised the set of these wheels alone are worth over $2000. Ok, I found this Porsche just the way you see it, with dirt and dust and all, had it towed to my storage facility and that's where it remains now in as is condition with dust to prove how long it was in storage unused, plus you are welcome to speak to the original owner if you wish. As it is, one would need to replace all gas tank line rubber hoses, change the engine oil, add fresh gas and the Porsche should start and run, I hooked up the battery, sprayed an engine starting fluid in the Solexes and it started right away and ran well for a little bit, so you know the engine is alive and well. I will not do anything else to this Great original Patina beautiful car and leave it up to the next owner to enjoy, restore or whatever they may chose to do with it. Car registration is expired but no late fee's at the DMV , it has an original small square California Pink Slip still and two keys. Door locks work, window roll up and down but due to the dust and dirt , roll a bit sticky right now. Porsche will be sold in as is condition, not running but rolling and complete. I have more picture that I could not upload here so please ask if you need to see more. The auction Will run it's course, I understand the value of these vehicles but I am very fair. The Porsche is located in the City of San Dimas California, 91750. East access for you tow company.Any questions, please ask. Thank You so much and good luck !

Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.
Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.
VW adding particulate filters to gas engines
Wed, Aug 3 2016Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.
