1970 914-6 Vin # 9140432255 on 2040-cars
Rochester, New York, United States
For Sale :
This 914-6 Needs a FULL restoration. 1970 914-6 Vin # 9140432255 Engine ser. # 6405500 (Unknown miles on engine/trans) Transmission model/ser. # 914/01 , 7502252 I'm pretty sure this is a number matching car. The color is black metallic but looks like a dark Gray (the paint is in rough shape). The car has a set of factory steel flares installed. I know most of this car's history (from mid 80's to current). The original engine/transmission was removed from the car in 1986/87. The org. engine/trans ran fine when it was removed but I would recommend a refresh on both. There is Weltmiester adjustable front & rear sway bars installed. The org. front suspension was replaced with a later 911 SC 3.5'' Boge struts with the aluminum S calipers, 911 SC front aluminum crossmember, and larger mm torsion bars in the factory A-arms. The p/o made his own front adjustable caster/camber plates but should be an easy retro to the factory parts. The shocks are adjustable Koni sports front and rear with 140 lb. springs. The rear bumper is installed but the front bumper/valance is still off the car. I can install the front bumper and valance prior to shipping. I know there's several parts missing from this car and will do my best to list them all. The missing parts can be found at various vendors/Porsche sites. Missing parts : (There maybe more then what's listed but this is what I know for sure) Rear calipers, engine relay board, oil tank/associated parts, carbs/intake manifolds/linkage, some interior trim pieces, speedo, tach, engine oil cooler, and all the rubber oil lines. Rust problems that I know of : Needs a full floor pan, right side lower firewall in engine bay, under battery tray area (aka the hell hole), right rear outer long, rear trunk pan, rear lid has rust spot, fenders in different spots, doors need to be repaired/replaced, and lower inner firewall on both sides. I inspected the inner rockers. The right side needs to be replaced and drivers side appears to be in good shape. The drivers side jack post looks like it will need to be replaced. There maybe more area's but this is what I can see. I installed the engine and transmission for the ease of shipping. I have the vehicle listed for sale on Pelican Parts and 914World sites. I also have the vehicle listed locally and could terminate this listing at anytime. If a buyer wants to have a PPI performed (at buyers expense) I will do my best to assist with it. I will do my best to answer any questions. I will take more pics of the car and other area's upon request. The vehicle is being sold AS IS and with parts listed above. The buyer is to arrange and pay for shipping of the vehicle. The winning bidder is to contact me with there contact info within two days to make arrangements for payment. DO NOT BID IF YOU DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS!!!! ask any questions you may have prior to bidding |

Autoblog editors choose their favorite racecars of all time
Thu, Feb 26 2015If you like cars, there is a good chance that you like racecars. There's something about the science and the art of going faster, of competition, of achievement, that accelerates the hearts of enthusiasts. It doesn't matter the series, the team or the manufacturer – there's something about racing that stirs emotions and lifts spirits. It's that way with many of you, and it's that way with our editors. With that in mind, we offer a list of our favorite racecars of all time. Of course, we'd like to hear some of yours in the comment section below. 1970 Porsche 917 Compared to some of the obscure choices by my colleagues, I feel like the Porsche 917 is almost so obvious a pick as to not be worth mentioning. Still, when coming up with my answer, my mind invariably went back to this classic racer – specifically in its blue-and-orange Gulf livery – while watching Le Mans on DVD and later Blu Ray with my dad. Long, low and curvaceous, few vehicles have ever looked sexier lapping a track than the 917. More than just a pretty face, this beauty had speed, too, thanks to several tunes of flat-12 engines over the course of its racing life. In the early '70s, Porsche was a dominant force throughout sports-car competition, and the 917 (shown above at the 1970 24 Hours of Daytona) was the tip of that spear, including back-to-back victories in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Largely without dialogue or really much of a traditional plot, Le Mans is like a tone poem of racing goodness. While the 917's importance to motorsports history is undoubtedly fascinating, it's still this cinematic depiction of the Porsche racer that draws me in most, especially with the volume cranked. – Chris Bruce Associate Editor 1964 Mini Cooper S How could everyone not be selecting the 1964 Mini Cooper S piloted by Paddy Hopkirk and Henry Liddon? That car, 33 EJB, took the first of British Motor Corporation's four Monte Carlo Rally wins (it should have been five, but French judges got the British Minis [and Fords] disqualified on a technicality regarding headlights... which its own car, the winning DS, was also in violation of). The tiny red car and its white roof beat out Ford Falcons, Mercedes-Benz 300SEs and scores of Volvos, Volkswagens and Saabs. This, along with the several years of dominance that followed, cemented the idea that not only could the tiny, two-tone Mini be a real performance vehicle, but that family-friendly city cars in general could be fun.
Porsche CEO hints at Macan GTS, expects brand sales growth to 200K+
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Porsche is expecting big things from its little Macan, with CEO Matthias Mueller announcing that not only is a sportier GTS model being considered, but that the CUV will almost certainly help push Porsche beyond its 200,000-unit-per-year sales goal three years earlier than expected.
"We're transferring the genes of the Porsche brand into a new market segment," Mueller said during a speech to kick off Macan production, according to Automotive News Europe. Macan demand should push the brand past 200,000 sales, Mueller said, confirming what we reported back in August. And if Porsche really has a hit on its hands, it is able to boost production of the sporty crossover beyond its initial capacity of 50,000 units, according to the brand's CEO.
Provided that the Macan is the success Porsche hopes it will be, Mueller hinted that the range could expand beyond the initial Macan S and Macan Turbo. "GTS versions have a tradition at Porsche," Mueller said. "We haven't made a final decision yet regarding the Macan, but I'm sure it makes a lot of sense."
Porsche recalls new 911 models over exhaust pipe issues
Thu, 28 Feb 2013Porsche, though the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, announced a voluntary recall on about 2,200 911 Carrera and Carrera 4 models built during the 2012 and 2013 model years. On cars equipped with the standard exhaust system it was found that the tailpipes could separate from the mufflers and become dangerous road debris; models that added the optional sport exhaust system are not included in this recall.
Affected vehicles were built between March and November of last year, but there have been no reports of the problem on any customer-owned vehicles. Porsche first noticed a cracked tailpipe weld on a test vehicle back in May, and since then has found similar problems on other internally owned vehicles, all with more than 25,000 miles on the clock. To fix the problem, dealers will be replacing the mufflers. Scroll down to read the official notice.
