Just pulled this car out of a Garage. Vin #4722908728 It had been there since the early 90's. For an east coast guy this car is a rust free as they come.
The '72 is an original California car. It was converted in the late eighties with all the period goodies. The car was converted to 5 lugs with BMW front calipers. Turbo tie rods, new ball joints and new torsion bars.  Koni's all round. The GT flares front and rear are fiberglass. It has a front fiberglass bumper with rear fiberglass 916 style belly pan. The rocker covers are flared fiberglass. The car was painted with a metalic blue gray paint over an original #60E green car. 

The longs, floors, and hell hole are as solid as I have ever seen. The rear trunk section above the muffler was replaced with replacement sheet metal. The front trunk is intact and original. The car appears to have no accident damage. The paint is in the 20 footer category. The underlying bodywork was poorly done as were the fiberglass flares. The passenger rear flare is cracking. The paint has several blemishes in it. 

The previous owner was a BMW fan. He did the front brake conversion with BMW calipers  The interior is really nice aside from a cracked dash and some tired carpeting the cockpit is really presentable. The door panels are very nice. The car needs some weatherstripping in the doors and windows. 

The gas tank was removed , cleaned, sealed, and painted. The fuel pump was relocated to the front. There are braided fuel lines running through the tunnel to the engine compartment where a fuel regulator controls the flow. 

The wheels are cookie cutters 15 inch. The tires are pretty bald and need to be replaced. The engine lid is currently removed but will be sold with the car. 

I also have an engine and transmission from a 73 that is available separately. The engine is a 1.7 with D-Jet fuel injection. It was rebuilt by the previous owner. it is complete with a clutch. Also available is a 901 side shift transmission. Please contact me for cost of the drivetrain.

So what you have is a nice rust free California 914 roller which has 5 lugs, BMW calipers, GT Flares, BMW seats.

Car is sold as a roller  with Bill of Sale  ONLY NO TITLE

Contact me for any questions.

This is an easy project for someone if you can turn a wrench. You could have this car running in a weekend. This car only needs a motor and trans bolted in to get it back on the road. Everything else is there: 5 lug conversion, suspension, brakes, wiring, lights, nice interior, fuel system, battery. You can have yourself a nice flared gt car for a fraction of the cost it would take to build one yourself.

Porsche rules out Macan, 911 hybrids

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Believe it or not, between the 918 Spyder, the Cayenne and the Panamera, Porsche offers more plug-in hybrid models than any other brand. Yes, Porsche. But don't expect that trend to continue. At least, not in the immediate future.
According to Top Gear, the E-Hybrid powertrain in the Cayenne and Panamera is too big to fit into the smaller Macan. A future hybrid system could be small enough to fit, but with the current technology still fresh, that'd still be some ways down the twisting road.
It stands to reason, then, that if the system wouldn't fit in the Macan, it wouldn't fit in the Boxster or Cayman, either. But what of the 911? Surely Porsche would like to stick it to BMW and its new i8, and proved it could do a hybrid 911 when it rolled the GT3 R Hybrid (pictured) out onto the race track over four years ago. But Zuffenhausen is reportedly in no rush to put that idea into production - not for the current 911 and not for the next one, either.

Porsche 918 Spyder pre-production version in all its almost-done glory

Sun, 18 Aug 2013

Porsche continues the long tease of its upcoming 918 Spyder, with the latest instantiation here at the Pebble Beach Concours, with the car presented in pre-production form to the throngs on the golf course.
Just a few days ago Porsche dropped an image of the car on its official Twitter feed. True to that leak, this 918 looks damn near what we expect the full customer version to be when it is officially debuted in Frankfurt. The neon-green brake calipers are items new to this version of the 918, and seem to be an identical color to those found on the Panamera S E-Hybrid.
When it shows up as a drivable piece, expect the Porsche supercar, with its gasoline-electric drivetrain, to be pretty insane. Horsepower in excess of 800 ponies will be available with a toe-tap, while the price of entry is expected to come within shouting distance of $850,000. A good deal for Porsche to bring the thing to Pebble then, where buyers with that kind of cash are think on the ground (and most likely wearing sherbet-colored trousers).

Meet Buster, this 1968 Porsche racecar transporter from Mercedes

Thu, Dec 11 2014

If you're thinking about Porsche and Mercedes-Benz when it comes to motorsports, your first thought is probably on the two German brands battling on the track. However, for decades, whenever Porsche's factory team went to compete, a custom Mercedes was right along with them hauling the racecars. These days the truck lives in the Brumos Collection in Jacksonville, FL, and goes by the nickname Buster. However, its story goes back to 1968 when Porsche ordered two commercial vehicles from Mercedes and then handed them over to a Stuttgart-based outfitter for customization. The results were these racing transporters that hauled models like the 917 and 956 until the '80s. The other survived, too, with a place in Porsche's collection. Well-known racers in their own right, Brumos scooped up the transporter in 2003 and have kept driving it to vintage racing events. The interior now boasts the signatures of many of the great drivers from the era of this historic truck. Watch the video for the whole story on the Mercedes with a whole lot of Porsche inside.
