The goal was to create a tribute of the 1970 porsche 914-6 GT competition car #2 campaigned by Miles Collier that finished 1.2.3 at the Nurburing endurance race.
The car is spot on down to the paint scheme and authentic decals. This car is a real head tuner.

The signal orange PPG paint is flawless. It ought to be it cost over$10,000.00. Yes , $10,000 the paint materials alone were $2000 not to mention the hours and hours of body work necessary to create this gorgeous car. 

The  Fuch style wheels really give the car that classic Porshce racer look. 

The front suspension was taken from a 1973 911 (control arms, spindles, steering rack, boge struts,911 'A' calipers ,and 911 5 lug hubs. The rear suspension has upgraded Koni shocks with 930 CV's and 911 half shafts, and converted 5 lug hubs with wheel studs. The car has the right looks..

The body work is flawless. A lot of hours went into the preparation for the fiberglass and paint work. You won't be disappointed.
The fiberglass GT flares have been grafted on to the car with an attention to detail The front fiberglass bumper and valance resemble the #2 nurburgring car with its teutonic paint scheme..
 The rear fiberglass bumper and stock valence round out the no nonsense look from behind. The flares are finished off with flared fiberglass rocker panel covers to finish out the gt look.

Inside the car is all business.  Once seated you grip the period correct  early 911 leather bound steering wheel and grip the walnut shift knob of the original dog legged 901 side shift
transmission. The black and blue coco matts and stock black 914 buckets round off the stark interior which is painted body color. To create that authentic competition
look a replica bolt-in GT roll bar has been installed.

The drive train is the reliable stock 914-4 engine and transmision. The car has a 1.7L 4 cylinder with original D-Jet fuel injection. The car starts up every time.
The transmission was converted from tail shift to the upgraded side shift model 901. The shifter is dialed in and shifts as well as can be. The brakes are rebuilt porsche 911 A-calipers up front with new vented rotors. The rear calipers are stock 914 rears with integrated parking brake. The car has stock stainless heat exchangers with stock muffler. 

The 914 is notorious for rust and this one was an original east coast car. The previous owner completed the rust repair which consisted of replacing the rear floors and 
outer longintudinals (rockers). the passenger side hell hole member was repaired at this time as well. The previous owner relocated the battery to the trunk because of the hell hole rust. I have the 
parts necessary to relocate the battery to the stock location including battery bracket.

The car drives really well. The 1.7 starts right up and is suprisingly peppy. Once you hit the twisties you'll understand why the 914 is considered the 'curve meister'
The car can be converted back to a more stock appearence by removing the decals and removing the bolt in roll cage. It can also be upgraded to a vintage racer or DE 
for under 2 liter historic racer class by adding a fuel cell and harness.

Another car has caught my attention hence the sale.  I am offering this car for sale elsewhere so the auction is subject to prior sale. Just took the car on a 200 mile run this past weekend 6/21 The car ran like a champ.  Please contact seller prior to bidding if you have questions about the vehicle. Don't let this one get away.

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below.

Ferrari 458 Speciale vs Porsche 911 GT3 shows what Chris Harris does best

Thu, Nov 27 2014

After a brief trip behind a pay wall, British auto journalist Chris Harris is back posting videos for free online, and shorts like this one are the perfect example of why his return is so welcome. Showing up at the damp Anglesey Circuit on the Welsh coast with the Ferrari 458 Speciale and Porsche 911 GT3, Harris ostensibly aims to find the better model. However, the final result really succeeds in showcasing the fun to be had behind the wheels of both supercars, particularly when initiating huge slides around the track. As Harris presents it, the vehicles get through the circuit in somewhat different ways The Ferrari is brash and "feels alive," as he puts it as it screams around the track. Alternatively, the Porsche is a bit more restrained, while still being able to show some emotion. In the end, it comes down to trying to get a controlled lap around Anglesey from this duo, but it's pretty clear that the times don't tell the whole story. If you're in the mood to watch two of the world's premiere supercars wag their tails in the wet, then this video cannot be missed.

Top Gear teases Porsche 918 vs McLaren P1 vs LaFerrari showdown

Mon, Jan 5 2015

It's the comparison test we've been waiting over a year to come together: the hybrid hypercar showdown of the century between the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari. They've each got hybrid powertrains pairing eight or more cylinders with an electric motor to drive around 900 horsepower through seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions. They come from exotic automakers with rich racing pedigrees, and each costs around a million bucks. Leave it to the guys from Top Gear, then, to finally put it together. The story adorns the cover of this month's issue of Top Gear magazine, which arranged the showdown – not the television program that started it all. Fortunately, they didn't miss the opportunity to capture the action on video, which will be available to iPad subscribers – but whether you've got access or not, you can catch a short clip of the seven-figure hybrid hypercars right here.
