 I am selling what was my father in laws 1973 Porsche 914 2.0.  It is a strong running 2.0 and runs well, starts right up and shifts nicely as well.  The odometer reads 104k miles and it holds oil very well. The engine has some oil dampness on the bottum, but I see only one drop every 6 months to a year.  The heat is hooked up and puts out a lot of heat.   It was originally black and was repainted at one point to red.  The current paint is about 15 year old enemal and I would call the paint job a 7 our of 10.   The aluminum trim is in nice condition and the chrome bumpers are some of the nicest I have seen in years.  A new battery tray was  just installed. Door gaps are good.  Overall, the floor pan in very solid.  There is some rust in the rear triangle area for the floors on each side.  Something must have happened in the front at some point.  The piece that the bumper bolts to had been replaced.  There is all 5 fuch rims including the spare which are nice, just could use some polishing.   The carpets are very nice.  There are a couple cracks in the dash, a couple small tears in the seats and back pad.  There is a center console with the three gauges.  The breaks work very well with a 19mm 911 master cylinder, the front rotors, wheel bearings and pads are new and the front calipers were rebuilt a couple years ago.  If I were keeping the car I would put on new rear rotors and pads.  There is stainless steel heat exchangers and a hand sewn leather steering wheel.  I have driven the car about 100 miles this spring and it has been a fun driver and reliable.  The car is located about 15 miles south of Ohare airport just outside of Chicago. It could be driven home, or if you have a need for shipping, I have had very good luck with Fed EX auto transport(800-325-4267).  If you have any questions, please let me know.  Good luck bidding!

Porsche not responsible for Paul Walker and Roger Rodas crash

Tue, Apr 5 2016

A US District Court judge has found that Porsche wasn't responsible for the Carrera GT crash that killed Roger Rodas and actor Paul Walker, according to The Detroit News citing the Associated Press. Rodas' widow, Kristine, brought the lawsuit against the German automaker, but the court ruled there was a lack of evidence for her case. "Plaintiff has provided no competent evidence that Rodas' death occurred as a result of any wrongdoing on the part of defendant," US District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez ruled, according to the AP. Rodas' lawyer pledged to appeal the decision. Rodas' lawsuit asserted that the Carrera GT's right rear suspension failed and also cited the Porsche's lack of a proper fuel cell or a crash cage as factors. However, the judge didn't see any evidence for the suspension failure. He also criticized the expert for Rodas' side for analyzing tire marks from over a month after the crash rather than the photos from right after the incident, the AP reports. A 2014 investigation by the Los Angeles County Sherriff's Department blamed unsafe speed as the fatal accident's cause. The investigators reported that the Carrera GT was doing between 80 and 93 miles per hour when the crash happened. They also found nothing mechanically wrong with the supercar but did discover that the tires were over nine years old. The LA County Coroner ruled that both deaths were accidents. According to the AP, the lawsuits from Walker's daughter and his father against Porsche are still pending in Los Angeles Superior Court, and the district court ruling doesn't affect them. In each case, Porsche denied being at fault and cited the sheriff's investigation as support for that argument. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

After that, they segue to Byron's trip to Moab for the 2023 Easter Jeep Safari preview where he drove the AEV Level II Jeep Wrangler Rubicon 20th Anniversary Edition.
