This is a rare opportunity to own a unique Porsche 914 conversion. This is a solid 1974 Porsche 914 with rotary conversion. Car sounds and runs great. Car has 200hp and weighs only 2000lbs giving this car weight-to-power  ratio of 10:1! The wankel rotary 13B Street Ported engine was professionally rebuilt, installed, and tuned. Over $11k spent on this conversion. The whole car was completely strippped, rust prepped and repainted. This car was meant to be street driven as well as on the track. Very fast and powerful. Very agile as well with tight steering. KYB Shocks with 200lb springs in rear. The rotary sound coming out of the porsche muffler sounds amazing. Car feels very tight on the road as well.


This is the short list of things done to the car: 
The power comes from a Mazda rotary 13B engine that was built up by Atkins Rotary Specialists in Puyallup, WA. The engine has a street port intake and stock exhaust port. The engine produces exactly 200 hp with a Weber SP 50 side-draft carb and Racingbeat intake manifold & custom exhaust header that runs into a SS 930 muffler. The car was completely gutted and what little signs of surface rust have been sandblasted, acid treated and sealed with Metal-Loc primer. This was a Southern Nevada car so it was not rusty, and even the battery tray area was still intact. The drivers compartment and engine bay/rear suspension has been reinforced with 1.5" x .120" roll bar tubing. Then the interior/ engine bay / trunk were sprayed with epoxy bed liner. The exterior was sprayed with SEM Hot-Rod Black and Centari Spitfire Orange both in a matte finish. The bottom pan, front compartment and wheel wells are in original condition, except for the addition of a massive Afco aluminum radiator in the nose.

This is a very clean car. The interior was re-upholstered to near original. All the mechanical bushings, guides, cables, and brake components have been replaced. The transmission has been torn down and gone through, all syncros and gears are in good shape. Essentially everything to operate the car has been replaced or rebuilt with new parts.


Recent Tune-up including new spark plugs, new fuel pump, fuel regulator, fuel pressure gauge, carburetor fully rebuilt and cleaned and jetted. All new bushings in the entire shifter linkage system. Car shifts great in all gears. Steering is very tight and nice.


Car is not perfect it needs some minor things such as: Turn signals are not working although the flasher button works, possibly the switch went bad on steering column. The windshield wipers sometimes work, steering column switch probably the culprit.The horn does not work. The windshield has a couple of chips in glass. The paint is not perfect, and there are two spots that the paint flaked off (see pics). I have new weather seals for the targa top, ready to be installed.  

Title on hand. Anyone is welcomed to come see the car in person and inspect.


Terms:

A $250 deposit is due within 24 hours. Car must be fully paid by CASH or Wire only and picked up within 7 days. Serious Buyers Only Please. Car is sold as-is.

Porsche Cayman GT4 spotted at the N?rburgring

Tue, 13 May 2014

It was just the other day that we first caught wind of Porsche's plans to build a GT4 version of the Cayman, and now we're already looking at spy shots of the vehicle in question undergoing testing at - where else? - the Nürburgring.
With more aggressive front-end aero, a GT3-style air vent ahead of the front hood, a large wing at the back, and spindly alloys packed with over-sized brakes at each corner, this Cayman is clearly more extreme than even the range-topping GTS. The rear diffuser and central exhaust tips look about the same as those you'd find at the back of the Cayman GTS, though.
What we can't see, of course, is what Porsche has slotted in under the rear glass, how it's upgraded the interior and how much weight it's stripped out of the thing to get it down to fighting weight, but you can bet it'll come with a substantial power bump and a stripped-out interior with racing buckets and little else to open the gap between it and the GTS... and close the gap to the 911 GT3 which it will join as the baby brother in Porsche's performance-focused lineup.

Porsche-Piech buy 10% stake in VW's holding company

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

In August, 2009, as the scuttled merger of Porsche and Volkswagen had gone bad and Porsche was backed up against the ropes, Porsche Automobil Holding SE (PAHSE) relinquished a ten-percent stake in itself to Qatar Holdings as well as options it held on 17 percent of VW shares. The sale meant that, for the first time since the founding of the company 61 years before, an entity outside the Porsche and Piech families had a say in the running of PAHSE.
Buying that ten-percent stake back returns full ownership to the two families, the holding company's sole possession being ownership of 50.7 percent of VW's common shares. The price paid wasn't disclosed, but at market rates the purchase would be worth close to $1.25 billion. Qatar intends to hold onto the 17-percent stake it has in Volkswagen.
