1970 Porsche 914 on 2040-cars
Mcallen, Texas, United States
ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME: jacquiejggustafson@clubwilliams.com .
Relisting my factory, authentic, genuine, true, real 914-6 as it did not sell when listed back in September and
December.
An older restoration that deserves a full restoration somewhere down the road. I feel I'll never have the time,
energy, nor resources to do that and, with the car turning 50 soon,maybe someone else does. As you might see in
the photos, the car was involved in a wreck at the front right quarter panel (before my time). There are other
minor cosmetic deficiencies (door panels, trunk shocks,dash covering, etc.) that I've tried to show in the photos
and a few other issues that have developed from me not driving it regularly enough (slow leak on the right rear
wheel/tire and the tachometer recently stopped working).
It's reliable enough to be driven daily but, without AC, only driven on the occasional weekend outing in Houston.
It's a blast to drive and turns every head!
As is common with 914's, the original engine and transmission were replaced sometime in its past. I have the
original engine block and transmission and these are included in the sale along with the COA. The engine block
installed in the car is an original 1970 914-6 block but the last digits of its stamped serial numbers are
unreadable.
The odometer reading has bee provided though I'm sure it's rolled over more than once.

Porsche ready to pick itself up after Le Mans failure
Mon, 23 Jun 2014It's safe to say that things for Porsche didn't go quite as well at Le Mans this year as it might have hoped. After a sixteen-year gap, the winningest manufacturer in endurance racing history returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe this year hoping maybe not for outright victory in its first time back, but definitely a strong finish on which it could build on for next year. All the while it undoubtedly hoped its 911s would hold their own in the GT classes.
Unfortunately for Porsche, neither happened. After racing around the clock, and despite actually leading the festivities for some time, the best its 919 Hybrid could manage was an eleventh-place finish, lagging lamentably behind not only the other LMP1s (like the race-winning Audi) but also a handful of LMP2s. Meanwhile the LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am titles went to the factory-backed teams of its arch-rivals Ferrari and Aston Martin, respectively.
Not a stellar result, in other words, but Porsche is taking it all in stride - accepting that it has a ways to go while congratulating its vanquishing rivals in the video below. It's good sportsmanship if we've ever seen it. Next year's race starts now.
Porsche 911 GT2 RS vs. Mercedes SLS AMG Black in battle of who can shred more rubber
Fri, 04 Apr 2014We might be looking at the end of an era in European performance models. Mercedes-Benz is doing away with the SLS in favor of a rumored smaller and cheaper SLC, and Porsche has said that a new 911 GT2 isn't necessarily a sure thing, which means another 911 GT2 RS is even farther away. In its latest video, Evo's Jethro Bovingdon pits the ultimate versions of these German sports coupes against each other and finds two of the fastest cars the magazine has ever lapped around its track.
In one corner, there is the Mercedes SLS AMG Black Series that sits as the pinnacle of the company's halo model. It relies on the classic setup of a V8 mounted in front powering the rear wheels. On the other side, there is the 911 GT2 RS with a turbocharged flat-six mounted at the back, spinning the rear wheels. It was conceived to be Porsche's ultimate expression of a turbocharged 911, and while it's a few years old, Bovingdon shows that it's up to the task of racing a more modern rival.
Both of these rear-wheel-drive monsters are more than capable of some fantastically smoky power-slides, but they also show how great the last generation of sports cars was. Scroll down to check out the video.
Porsche creates 'symphony' with seven generations of 911
Wed, 02 Oct 2013At Porsche, things are getting a bit wild on the 50th anniversary year of the 911. To celebrate it (again) in yet another inventive way, the automaker has called on the musical talents of seven generations of the rear-engine sports car (please suspend your disbelief, at least for the length of the video, and assume that generation two started in 1974) to perform a song that has eight notes. We're wondering which 911 is pulling double duty...
But before the Porsches are lined up for the short recital, the drivers let loose and drift them inside a hangar. Watch the video below, and tell us in comments which was more impressive: the song or the drifting.
