1976 Porsche 914 on 2040-cars
Lohn, Texas, United States
This is a great car and with very rare dealer-installed OEM A/C. The car was bought new in Texas, and I bought from the second Texas
owner: always a Texas car. The odometer shows 68,661 miles, but does not spin (mileage exempt due to classic
status). All other gauges/lights work. Based on how it looks, fit/finish, and how it drives, I seriously doubt it
has clicked over the 100k mark, in my opinion.
Until recently, the car was driven very little since the early 90's but was run in its garage regularly. The engine
runs great and has no dripping oil and is very clean burning with no smoke. The transmission shifts perfectly and
clutch works perfectly. The suspension, shocks, bushings, tie rods, wheel bearings, etc. are in good condition with
nothing loose or worn. Brakes are good. Nearly $11,000.00 has been spent since March of last year making this an
excellent, attractive and reliable driver. Among the improvements: 5 new Pirelli tires 4 with just a few hundred
miles, and the spare never on the ground (warranty docs convey). New muffler (OEM), rear bearings, new
weather-stripping and window adjustments for sealing, new OEM seals all around the car including doors, targa roof,
both trunks, etc., new spark plug insert, new plugs/tune, fresh fluids throughout, all new brakes, caliper kits,
hoses, pads, rear trunk lock, etc. The car is ready to drive, and it will be a joy! All work done by well known
and highly respected professional Porsche specialist shop in San Antonio.
The interior is almost perfect and certainly for its age is in very good condition. There is one small crack on the
top of the instrument cluster housing and the dash has no cracks. There are a couple of nicks in the seats and
center pad. Door panels are perfect. Carpet is in good condition. You can see from the pictures the overall
condition of the interior is excellent. The top and door seals are new, OEM. Anybody that knows these cars always
checks the battery tray and the subsequent rust trail from the battery tray to the back corner of the passenger
seat. On this car it is very clean and no rust is evident. Both trunks are perfect and look like they just come off
the showroom floor. Now the body!!!. The body and chassis on this car are rust free. The bumpers are in great shape
but need a little buffing to get the shine back. The overall look of the car as you can see in the pictures is
almost perfect, with new, very high quality two tone paint (original Porsche 914 colors). Overall this car has a
great look and presents its self very well. It starts, runs, shifts, and stops as it should, and is a dream to
drive. A near perfect car !!!
1976 was the final year for the Porsche 914. Owned by Porsche Club of America (PCA) member (and racer in a 1971
914-4 2L race car).

Are you the Porsche Pajun?
Mon, 17 Nov 2014The prospect of Porsche building a smaller version of the Panamera has been an on-again, off-again proposition as the German automaker seems to go back and forth on the project. Last we heard, Porsche had pushed back the so-called Pajun (shorthand for Panamera Junior) until 2019 at the earliest, but we could be looking at it right here.
The automaker's everything-but-automotive division Porsche Design is working on a luxury condo complex called (simply enough) Porsche Design Tower. It's been three years in the making and will take at least another year or two to complete, but the gist of it is that the 57-floor building will include 132 apartments, each with its own en-suite garage in which the residents' cars will be parked thanks to giant elevators.
Porsche Design released a series of renderings showing what the property will look like once complete. Most of the renderings feature Porsches, of course - production models you can find in any of the brand's showrooms, like the one just 23 miles away in Coral Gables. But one of the renderings of the giant glass elevators shows something rather unusual.
2014 Porsche Cayman promo video hits the web
Fri, 28 Dec 2012Don't know how we missed this, but you don't have to play around with the 2014 Porsche Cayman configurator to see the new coupe in action; Porsche has given us more than two beautiful minutes of Cayman footage to enjoy.
The partners in the on-screen tango are the 275-horsepower base Cayman and the 325-hp Cayman S. If you like to keep track of such things, the former starts at $52,600, the latter at $63,800, plus $950 destination for each. Watching a video like the one below, however, is free.
Jay Leno welcomes finely rebuilt Porsche 356 into his garage
Wed, 15 Jan 2014Not a month after the Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer visited Jay Leno's garage, another artfully restored Porsche has rolled in. This time it's a 1957 Porsche 356A Outlaw, the "outlaw" moniker referring to Porsches that have been restored outside the bounds of period-correct orthodoxy.
This 356A was literally done from the ground up by Michigander Chuck Olenyk, the floor of the car having fallen apart so badly that he couldn't remove the roof at first since it was holding the vehicle together. Olenyk said that of the 2000 hours over seven years that he spent restoring the car, 500 were spent just on repairing the rust. That's undoubtedly some of the reason why when he tried to sell the unrestored car as a roller in the nineties for $1,000, no one would take it off his hands.
Olenyk fitted a mildly tuned engine from a Porsche 912, the transmission from a 356B, the brakes from a 356C, Fuchs mags and a modified replicar Speedster roof from Intermecchnica. It lacks nothing even with just 115 horsepower, and it adds to that with charm and aural appeal. You can see and hear the full story in the video below.
