This car was the second 914-6 GT conversion I under took as a project.
This original 1971 914 was the straightest, truest 914 I'd ever seen with Zero rust
anywhere and a great platform for conversion. The concept of this project
was to build a street legal race car that hailed back to the days you drove your
Porsche to the track, removed the spare tire and any unnecessary weight,
raced all weekend and drove home. So anything that didn't make it faster
was left off. So there is no heat and the only vent is a hose from the
grill at the base of the windshield inside, pointed at the driver. [I'll
throw in a dash from a '76 914 on request]

Every part of this car has been removed and upgraded with only the
original fuse panel headlight motors unchanged.
The shop that did the body work did an excellent job on the fit and
finish of the fiberglass bonding everything
inside and out. Their paintwork although 99% perfect has some flaws that
showed up shortly after painting.
I think from uncured resin out gassing. The flaws are small and may be
corrected by color sanding. I know there are
multiple coats of PPG single stage black applied.

This car is lightweight, solid, scary fast with a great exhaust note and
begs to be flogged. It has never made it to any track and after
completion I lost interest. It deserves a new home. The odometer has
86114 miles but may not be original will display top speed of 150 mph.
The tach needle recently started bouncing, so may need a new coaxial lead to the distributor sensor.
There is a new VDO oil pressure gauge in the dash and the temp gauge
above the fuel gauge is hooked up and working. The fuel gauge and
reserve light are working and accurate.

The reserve price represents just what I have spent out of pocket on the
engine core, the rebuild, the PMO carburetor system, so the car,
bodywork, paint job, interior redo and the 1000 hours sweating every
detail is a bonus. The car comes with a custom fit cover, and an extra top.

I purchased this car in 1995 pretty much stock 914 1.7.Started the conversion in 2001 and finished 2011.

I accept Paypal,cashiers check,cash  and winning bidder must pay $1000 Paypal deposit within 24 hours with the balance due in 10 days.
Buyer is responsible for any transport or shipping from Kansas City but I will cooperate with carrier/transporter.

Porsche gives GT3 owners extra year of warranty, new engines in production April 22

Sat, 12 Apr 2014

While the auto industry reels from massive recall after massive recall, Porsche has quietly been working on a fix for an issue that's forced owners of the new 911 GT3 to park their track-ready rockets for fear of an engine fire. Thanks to a leaked letter from Porsche to a GT3 owner (which has been certified as real), we now have an idea of just where the German brand is at with the fix.
On April 22, Porsche will begin production of a new batch of GT3 engines for the 785 affected models across the globe. As you'll recall, the original issue rested with a screw joint that could loosen the connecting rod. The new engines have an "optimized piston rod screw connection," that should keep the connecting rod in place. Once technical validations are completed, production will kick off and new powerplants will be shipped around the globe for owners of the troubled cars.
Porsche will hand out a certificate to owners of affected cars once repairs have been completed, as a means of documenting the work. To make up for the trouble, Porsche will be giving owners an extra year on their new-vehicle warranty, while the 911 GT3 concierge will be reaching out to compensate them for having to park their car for so long.

NFL draft recruits to get Porsche 911s for fastest 40 times

Thu, Feb 5 2015

It's fair to say the NFL Combine is a big deal for players entering a draft. Their future quite literally comes down to a series of drills. You a defensive tackle? Better rock out on the bench press. Hoping to be the next great wide receiver? Your vertical better be awesome. And what of the running backs? Well, few drills match the importance of the 40-yard dash. That particular drill will have a renewed importance not just for the RBs, but for other skill positions at this year's Combine, as the three fastest times will be gifted a shiny new Porsche 911. Adidas is offering up the three cars, which ESPN reports are valued at about $83,000 a piece. That means these new recruits won't be rolling around in a Turbo or GT3. They will, however, sport a questionable sense of design, as the German shoe company has fitted a cheetah print, which is meant to match one of the company's new trainers. You can check both the car and the shoe out above. NFL fans, meanwhile, should feel free to head into Comments and let us know who you think will take home a new 911. Related Video:

Jaguar F-Pace vs. Porsche Macan | Performance luxury crossover comparison

Mon, Jul 16 2018

TRANSCRIPT: The luxury performance crossover. 10 years ago, the list of examples was only a few vehicles deep but today it seems like every luxury car company makes at least one of these. This specific example is a 2018 Jaguar F-Pace S and it happens to be Autoblog 's newest long-term test vehicle. And here's the thing: It's really great to drive. Welcome to the Jaguar F-Pace S. Under the hood we have a supercharged 3.0-liter V6 that makes 380 horsepower and 332 pound feet of torque, which pulls the F-Pace from 0 to 60 in just 5.1 seconds. That's a pretty sizable upgrade from the base model's 247 horsepower and 269 pound-feet of torque. The engine is paired to an eight speed automatic transmission that responds pretty quickly to the paddles when in sport mode. There are three driving modes to choose from: You have dynamic, normal and eco. Even though the F-Pace name sounds like the F-Type, aside from the powertrain, they really aren't related. It's named that because it's based on the rear-wheel-drive Jag XF, just like the E-Pace is on the XE and the J-Pace will end up being based off of the XJ. Even though the F-Pace is all-wheel drive compared to the rear-wheel XF, it is a rear-bias system, which means it belongs exactly where we are right now, on twisty, turny back roads. This is a Jaguar, which means it sounds good but it looks even better. In my opinion, this is the best looking SUV on the market today. The Caesium Blue is a new color in the U.S. for this model year and we opted to get the black package, which includes black side vents, a black grill and roof rails. This is a $70,000 luxury crossover and the materials, they're okay. The plastics, I don't know, they kind of feel cheap even with the luxury interior upgrade package. The 10-inch touch screen is pretty big, in a good way. And while the surround sound isn't the best that I've heard, it's perfectly serviceable, especially since all I want to hear is this engine. For $70,000, this is what you get: A beautiful SUV that performs incredibly on the road. But what if you want more? This Macan costs over $96,000, which is almost $30,000 more than the F-Pace S. If you wanted to, you could buy a base Cayenne and a base F-Pace for that kind of money. But with that price comes more power, thanks to this Macan Turbo's performance pack. 60 more horsepower and 90 more pound-feet of torque than the F-Pace S bringing the total to 440 horsepower and 442 pound-feet of torque.
