I purchased this car seven years ago as a completed V8 conversion and drove it a few thousand miles while at the same time upgrading it in several ways. The car had a minor fire when new, was therefore totalled and became a doner for this project. That explaines the low mileage, it was one of the first such conversions ever done. This car has seen very limited use for its entire life and never been out in inclement weather. The rust on the floorboards is evidently from storage, as I mentioned, one area does need repair where the floor meets the firewall behind the seats. My upgrades have been to the routing of the cooling lines, getting them thru the rocker panels and up thru the front to the radiator. This was accomplished with several custom made pieces of hardware. Where they pass thru tunnels in the fuel tank, header wrap totally prevents any heat transfer to the fuel itself. I was taking this car on road trips and driving it around untill I hit a curb with the right rear wheel and bent the swingarm on that side and cracked the 901 gearbox with that impact. The body remained absolutely unharmed and straight. At that point, 3 years ago, my activity stalled with this car due to having to relocate my business and economic conditions in general. The engine remains out of the car, and waiting to go back in with it is the CROWN JEWEL of what I have to offer here . . . a totally modified 930 transaxle with all new parts and limited slip differential. Additionally, I designed and built a mechanical shifter that shortens the overall length by 4 inches, making it ideal to put into a 914. The photo of the stock and new shift rods shows how this is possible, all of this was assembled by Perfect Power Inc., Buffalo Grove Illinois, whose absolute specialty is Porsche. They did or contracted for all the special machining and modifications to use this in a mid-engine car. I have complete build sheets and ratio/speed information, I spent over 12 thousand dollars on this box before creating the shifter. The interior is in very good condition with no cracks in the dash, every thing works. I have a replacement swingarm. I myself have been in product developement, mechanical design and prototyping as a career working on consumer, medical, and industrial products making me competant in everything I accomplished here. I require an $800 paypal deposit within 24 hours of the end of this auction. You will be bidding to OWN this car, not an option to buy. Please have necessary funds available to complete this transaction within 7 business days of the sale in cash or bank wire transfer unless you and I make other arrangements. Car is sold "as is" with no warrantees. I have a clear Illinois title for this car, please ask all questions BEFORE bidding. Car may be picked up or shipping arrangements will have to be made. My phone is 312 972 0047, my name is Paul, thank you for looking. Please feel free to make offers.

VW close to decision on selling Bugatti to Rimac

Sun, Feb 21 2021

FRANKFURT — Electric hypercar maker Rimac Automobili and Volkswagen's supercar brand Bugatti are a good technological fit, Porsche's CEO told German weekly Automobilwoche, fueling hopes that a deal between the two could happen soon. British automotive magazine Car last year reported that Volkswagen was on the verge of selling Bugatti to Rimac Automobili, citing sources. In exchange, Porsche, also owned by Volkswagen, would raise the 15.5% stake it owns in Rimac, founded by Croatian entrepreneur Mate Rimac, Car said. "At the moment there are intense deliberations on how Bugatti can be developed in the best possible way. Rimac could play a role here because the brands are a good technological fit," Porsche CEO Oliver Blume said. "There are various scenarios with different structures. I believe that the issue will be decided by the group in the first half of the year," said Blume, who also sits on the management board of parent Volkswagen. Rimac has developed an electric supercar platform, which he supplies to other carmakers, including Pininfarina. Blume also confirmed higher savings targets for Porsche, saying the carmaker plans to support results by 10 billion euros ($12.1 billion) of cost cuts by 2025, up from 6 billion previously.

2021 L.A. Auto Show roundup | All the reveals, reviews, pictures

Thu, Nov 18 2021

The L.A. Auto Show took place this week for the first time since the onset of the pandemic. It was a show packed with news and reveals, which hasn't really been the case with other shows we've seen this year, and Autoblog was on the floor covering every minute of it. Well, Riswick and Stocksdale were, anyway. The rest of us were sitting at home in our sweatpants, but hey, we'll take credit anyway. Let's get to it. Hyundai Seven Concept This is theÂ HyundaiÂ Seven Concept, and it’s meant to act as a preview for anÂ incoming electric SUV for the Ioniq brand. It leans more toward the concept side of the spectrum than a production car, but expect the final SUV to take design cues from the Seven Concept. Kia Concept EV9 TheÂ HyundaiÂ Seven counterpart isn't the only big, bold electric SUV at L.A. this year.Â KiaÂ has its own take, and it's a modernized version of the traditional boxy utility vehicle called the Concept EV9. It also previews one of the next productionÂ electric carsÂ for the brand, which should look right at home next to things likeÂ the Telluride. 2023 Kia Sportage HEV As promised, theÂ 2023 Kia SportageÂ HEV has been revealed. TheÂ hybrid powertrain makes the compact SUV the most powerful version available, and it goes on sale next year.Â The engine is a turbocharged 1.6-liter four-cylinder paired with a 44-kW electric motor. Total output is 226 horsepower. The company didn't give a torque number, but it should basically be the same asÂ the Sorento HEVÂ that has the same basic powertrain: 258 pound-feet. Those numbers are a healthy step up from the 187 horsepower of the base 2.5-liter engine. 2022 Range Rover If you noticed how extra smooth and suave the new Range Rover looked during its recent reveal, Autoblog's James Riswick got a design tour that revealed some of the technological secrets to its success. "Less is more" is harder to achieve than it looks. Fisker Ocean FiskerÂ has brought the new Ocean EV to theÂ L.A. Auto Show, with a public preview at Manhattan Beach and a presence at the show itself. You can watch the public show reveal above, and see more shots from the show floor below.Â Fisker says the Ocean will start at $37,499 before incentives. That entry model would be the Sport trim with a single, 275-horsepower motor driving the front wheels and 250 miles of estimated range. It also has a 0-60 time of 6.9 seconds. 2023 Toyota bZ4X This is the 2023Â ToyotaÂ bZ4X, due to hit U.S.
