1970 Porsche 914/6 on 2040-cars
Santa Clarita, California, United States
1970 Porsche 914/6, 100% real car 6 cylinder car, original engine is long gone. Rolling chassis comes with a complete 1970 2.2 911t engine with Zenith carbs. Engine is torn down as it was stuck from sitting and is now in multiple storage boxes. Car has a 901 side shift transmission from a later year model. Solid car, garaged for a long time so minimal rust issue if any (CA car). Longs are great, pans are great. Car has later year doors with side protection beams. Was "auto-crossed" by previous owner and had a roll cage in it at one time, cage has been removed as well as sheet metal where the hoop was welded in on top of the inner rocker panels. New sheet metal fab'd up, approx. a 10" x 6" panel with pinch-weld flange bent into it , will need final fit and weld. Car has long wheel studs front and rear. Right side seat has been changed over to a later year (moveable) vs. the stationary position for a 1970. I cannot stress how solid this car is, why buy a rusted out car that needs tons of bodywork/repair when you can start with a great foundation? Big money to be saved and spent on engine build. No Fuchs included. I have a set of steel 5.5"x15" steel wheels for the car with roller tires. Car is missing interior door trim panels and door pockets, sun visors, and that is about it. Serious inquiries only please. Car currently has a 911s engine in it but will be pulled out at the end of the auction. 911s engine is not included in this auction. HELL HOLE is excellent, no issues. Car comes with some items in boxes like heater vents, ducting, etc. that was removed when the car was raced. Original color is Ivory White (code 11). 914/6 do not come available all that often in this condition, most are either rust buckets or overly restored trailer queens that can't be driven or enjoyed. Vehicle is listed in other areas and maybe subject to prior sale. All sales are final, sold as-is with no warranty implied. Additional photos can be sent, just ask but I will not be to anxious to send out photos to photo"collectors", real buyers only please. I work a full time job but always look at my e-mail, if you have a question please ask. I will answer the best I can. |

World Car of the Year finalists announced
Fri, 07 Mar 2014To say the 2014 Geneva Motor Show was packed full of news is an understatement as big as the show's home at the Palexpo convention center. Despite everything that we were able to cover during this year's show, there's still more coming out of Switzerland, including the announcement of the finalists for the 2014 World Car of the Year Awards.
We reported on the original list of finalists over three weeks ago, and now, that initial list has been pared down to three finalists for each of the five awards. The finalists were announced at a press conference by frequent Autoblog contributor and co-chair of the awards, Matt Davis (above).
The finalists for the overall title of 2014 World Car of the Year are the Audi A3, the BMW 4 Series and the Mazda3. The World Luxury Car of the Year will be either the Bentley Flying Spur, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class or the Land Rover Range Rover Sport, while the Performance Car of the Year will be awarded to the Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, the Ferrari 458 Speciale or the Porsche 911 GT3 (which, um, yeah...).
Techart modified Porsche 911 Turbo S packs 620 hp, 0-62 in 2.8 seconds
Wed, 05 Mar 2014Considering how many absolutely ridiculous tuner cars are featured in Geneva (stay tuned to see plenty, as our coverage continues), it's often refreshing to see some of the more modestly modified cars, like this new Porsche 911 Turbo S from the folks at Techart. Visually, there's a subtle body kit, new wheels, a new spoiler, and some lame decals on the front end, but it basically ends there. That's because Techart's mission is really about higher performance. Increased dynamism, as the Germans say.
An ordinary 911 Turbo S produces 560 horsepower and 516 pound-feet of torque. But the Techart kit adds 60 hp and 96 lb-ft to those already high numbers, for a coupe that dishes out a total of 620 hp and 612 lb-ft. Techart says that, in Sport Plus mode, its modified 911 Turbo S will accelerate to 62 miles per hour in just 2.8 seconds, and the top speed has been increased to 204 miles per hour. Crazy stuff.
To further drive its performance upgrades home, Techart has fitted this 911 Turbo S with a sport exhaust system with valve control, for a more robust exit interview, at the push of a button. We imagine it sounds awesome. Have a look at the Techart Turbo S in the gallery, above.
Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
