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.

Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted

Fri, 14 Mar 2014

Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.

Porsche 991 vs. 930 Flatnose in 911 Turbo convertible faceoff

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

The Porsche 911 Turbo has a legacy of being a tough car to drive. With a ton of power set right over the rear wheels, its reputation is to lose control as soon as the driver stops concentrating. However, this isn't quite so true anymore. The modern ones are tamed through technology with things like hydraulically controlled engine mounts, not to mention all-wheel drive. In its latest video, Autocar tries to decide whether 25 years of progress really makes the turbo a better vehicle.
It's summer, so what better version to compare than the 911 Turbo Cabriolet? In one corner, Autocar has the latest and greatest 2014 version pumping out 513 horsepower and 486 pound-feet of torque with a seven-speed dual-clutch gearbox. Its challenger is a 1989 911 flatnose convertible sporting 326 hp and 347 lb-ft of torque. It's a truly rare car in the UK with only eight of them remaining on the roads in that region.
Granted, this test isn't so much a battle as it is a comparison. There's no question that the modern 911 would beat the classic in practically every objective category. What the video aims to find out is whether the flatnose is better in subjective measurements like its "feel." Scroll down to watch these two droptop Porsches square off.

Porsche 944 Turbo jumps in the MotorWeek wayback machine

Sat, Apr 25 2015

While there's no shortage of five- or ten-minute time wasters on the Internet, we humbly submit MotorWeek's awesome series of retro reviews as the best way to take up a short break. This time around, we have a classic Porsche from the 1980s, with John Davis reviewing the 944 Turbo. With a whopping 247 horsepower, the 944 Turbo still represents something of a performer even today, with Davis and Company recording a solid 5.7-second sprint to 60. While it might hold its own against today's hot hatchbacks, it's clear that today's vehicles have come a very long way in terms of interior equipment. Among the things MotorWeek highlights that seem weirdly out of place today include the passenger front airbag and, among the variety of old fashioned controls scattered throughout he cabin, the hilarious equalizer controls for the 10-speaker Blaupunkt stereo.
