NICE 914-6 conversion.  2.2 liter 911 motor with 5 speed.  I bought it  from a guy who had it for 10 years.  He advertised it as "totally rust free" and it was very nice-BUT- the belly pan was in need of replacement.  I had a complete new pan welded in at the factory seam-with original weld points.  It is now rust free- no "hell hole" issues- completely dry and clean.  Carbon Fiber Trim and body panels look great.  Paint is ok- but not concours. Interior is very nice with yellow accents and black and yellow cocoa mats.  Yellow rain hats on carbs with a 916 style vented engine cover- all in all a very cool 914 for track or street. Car is currently shod with polished Fuchs with 205/15 tires on all corners.  The fender lips were rolled- but there is very little clearance without maximum (track type) camber.  tires are new on rears and very nearly new on front.  Also have a set of 185/14 s on Fuchs if you want a more street tire friendly set up.  

I have 3 other Porsches and this is not getting much use.  If you ever wanted a 914-6 this is a good one.  I have a nearly perfect stock 914 2.0 which is a blast to drive but not as "hot" as the 2.2.  No disappointments in the quality of the conversion- 911 5 lug rotors and a 911 SC front suspension upgrade with integral roll bar.  Long time PCA member with plenty of experience with many different models.  This is a very sound sporty 42 year old Porsche.  My best description is "go cart on steroids"

Check out the undercarriage pictures- call me at 304-639-5907 if you need details or to make shipping arrangements.  I have my own car hauler and can work with you or your carrier on shipping .  Mileage is undetermined- eBay needs a number entered- but I have no idea what the real mileage is after 42 years.

World Car of the Year finalists announced

Fri, 07 Mar 2014

To 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...).

Watch 1,208 Porsche 911s collect at Silverstone for world record

Mon, 29 Jul 2013

Porsche has been spending the majority of 2013 celebrating the 50th birthday of the 911, with its latest stunt taking the German brand to the home of British motorsports, Silverstone. To celebrate, Porsche invited enthusiasts to take their personal 911s on a lap of the former airfield, and boy, did the Porschephiles show up. 1,208 911s took part in the lap around the Grand Prix circuit, making it the largest-ever gathering of the iconic, rear-engined cars.
This wasn't just a celebration of 50 years for the 911, though. Funds raised were channeled towards Hope For Tomorrow, a cancer charity that works with the United Kingdom's National Health Service in operating mobile chemothereapy units that make life just a little bit easier on cancer patients.
Take a look at the long video below, and enjoy the passing of what are likely examples of every 911 model ever built.

Motor Trend holds World's Greatest Drag Race for the third time

Fri, 23 Aug 2013

As part of Motor Trend's Best Driver's Car competition, the buff book has held its third iteration of the World's Greatest Drag Race. With an airfield and a dozen of the world's finest performance cars at its disposal (oh, and a helicopter), the MT team did what any good group of enthusiasts would do, and tried to figure what car could cover a quarter mile the quickest. World's greatest drag race, indeed.
The contestants, as MT points out, cover a huge variety of engine types, drivelines, aspiration types and body styles, making for a genuinely varied and interesting field of competitors. Here's the full list of cars taking part.
