1973 Porsche 914 Base 1.7l Signal Orange on 2040-cars
Sidney, British Columbia, Canada
|
1973 Signal Orange 914-1.7 The interior is very original Brown with a very nice with a crack free dash, original seats with 2 very small repairs, 1 on each cushion (hardly noticeable). It also has the original steering wheel and Blaupunkt Radio which does work, however the car does require an antenna. The carpets have been replaced in the past. The targa top is also in very nice condition inside and out. The engine retains all of its original fuel injection. The battery tray and hell hole are clean and solid. It is believed to be numbers matching, but I have not verified that information. The front and rear trunk as well as the floor boards are solid. The longitudinal's are also solid. The odometer reads just under 70,000 miles, but seems to have quit working in the past few days. It was working just prior to inspection 1 month ago. The speedometer does work. All electrical works, lights, horn etc.. The vehicle just went thru a comprehensive out of province inspection. I had new front struts installed. the tires, exhaust and the rest of the suspension passed all of the requirements. While it was in the shop I also had a tune up completed and the fuel injection was also set up. The ignition switch was also replaced as it was intermittent. I will say that the car runs very well, but does take a few minutes to warm up. The car pulls very nicely thru all gears with no issues whatsoever. It also handles very well. The original jack, partial tool kit, and Fuch spare tire are also included. It will also be for sale locally and I have the right to end this auction at anytime. I will also assit in shipping in anyway that I can, but the cost of shipping is 100% the responsibility of the buyer. Please ask many questions as this sale is as is where is with no implied guarantees or warrantee. I can take more photos if required. Please see the photo share link below for more photos |

Porsche digitally dissects its 918 Spyder for your viewing pleasure
Wed, 02 Oct 2013At this point, you'd think we'd know all there is to know about the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder - except what it's like to drive - but Porsche has released a new video giving us a more in-depth look at its new plug-in hypercar all the same. The animated video gives us numerous cutaway looks at the 918 Spyder while giving a visual demonstration of the car's four hybrid driving modes.
Though nowhere near as exciting as watching the 918 blast around the Nürburgring in record time, this new video is nonetheless both interesting and informative. Scroll down to watch the video yourself, and be sure to check out our live gallery of the production version of the car along with a stock gallery.
2015 Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival
Thu, Aug 13 2015Considered the big kick off of the major festivities surrounding Monterey Car Week, this year's Gordon McCall's Motorworks Revival certainly didn't disappoint. For those unable to make it to the California coast, our own Drew Phillips was on hand to snap some of the beautiful vehicles on display for this gorgeous gallery. Held annually at the Monterey Jet Center, the event is always a feast for the eyes by collecting planes, a gang of exotic supercars, and some the top cars crossing the auction block over the coming days, like a Plymouth Hemi 'Cuda convertible. The Ford GT both new and old was a major attendee at this year's party. Among them, the Petersen Museum brought along an original racecar and a GT40 MKIII to promote an upcoming exhibit. The classics were complimented by the latest version that has continued to keep tongues wagging. The GT wasn't the only classic with a modern update there. Singer used the posh event for the North American debut of its stunning restoration of the Porsche 911 Targa. Shelby American was also at the revival for the public unveiling of the 50th Anniversary Daytona Coupe. On the more modern front, Honda was in attendance with the future NSX and one of the McLaren F1 cars that the company's engine powers. For further proof of the ritzy folks that attend this soiree, Pagani and Koenigsegg both had stands to show off their extremely quick wares.
McLaren P1 squares off against Porsche 918 in Evo track battle
Fri, Nov 21 2014Evo's side-by-side comparison of the McLaren P1 against the Porsche 918 Spyder isn't the first time we've seen England and Germany's ultimate automotive weapons sized up together; last month, Autocar tested them over the standing mile, with a Ducati 1199 Superleggera playing the joker. Evo throws a few curves at its test, though, taking the supercars to Anglesey Circuit in Wales to see which will lay down the fastest lap time with scribe Jethro Bovington at the wheel. In case the numbers haven't yet been seared into your memory, while both are assisted by electric motors, the 3,069-pound, rear-wheel drive P1 gets on with 903 horsepower and 664 pound-feet from a 3.8-liter, twin-turbocharged V8. The 3,750-pound, all-wheel-drive 918 Spyder does its job with 795 hp and 575 lb-ft surging out of a naturally aspirated, 4.6-liter V8. We're not told know which circuit layout he uses for the test, but both cars comfortably eclipse the mark set by the fastest coupe Evo's driven around it so far, the Ferrari 458 Speciale. Then, in an epilogue occasioned by a tire change, one of the supercars comfortably eclipses its own time again, before Bovington declares one the master of the track and the other the ruler of the street. Enjoy finding out which is which in the video above.
