Amarillo, Texas, United States
|
-1976 914 2.0 liter -Dual two-barrel Weber 45mm down-draft carburetors -Mild cam w/ hydraulic lifters (No valve adjustments needed-hardly ever) -High-performance clutch installed with new bearings etc. -KYB Nitro Sport shocks -Brand new gell cell battery -High-pressure valve springs w/ 5800rpm rev limiter -Stainless steel exhaust -Powder coated engine tins (Yellow tins, red carbs, looks sharp) -New (Straight) rear A-arms -About 1000 miles on engine when re-worked in 2002/2003 when i left for college. It's in great driving condition! This car has been garage kept in the Texas panhandle since I bought it in 2001. I moved to and live in Illinois now but it is kept in my parents garage year round. The car is newly registered and inspected in Texas where my parents use it for weekend driving. I bought the car from Kentucky in really nice condition except that it needed some new gaskets. That prompted me to take everything apart and add the features above since I was already working on it. The interior is original as far as I can tell and needs just a little work. Other than a couple of seat tears the inside is really nice and clean. I put a lot of TLC into the car and have since moved away. I miss the car a lot but I am now raising money for an adoption so the car gets to help our family with that. My parents are not happy that I am selling their toy, but they are happy to be getting a grandchild out of the deal We took most of the maintenance out of the car. If you're new to the 914 cars, know what you're buying. The valves have to be set unless converted to hyd lifters. The factory fuel injection is very touchy and costs lots to properly maintain. Carbs take the fuss out of the fuel system with only a simple K&N filter cleaning necessary occasionally. They're great and fun cars to have and drive and seem to increase in price nicely with some minor work to get them up to snuff. This not a "parts car" but is of the factory chassis, engine, and gearbox. The car is located in the Texas Panhandle. Title is completely original and clear. I had my parents shoot a couple of videos so you an see how nice it drives. As you can see this car will make people drool when they first hear and then see it coming. (Sorry about the wind, it is the Texas panhandle.)

Porsche tuners 9ff, SpeedArt going bankrupt
Thu, 19 Sep 2013Times are tough in Europe right now, and that unfortunately has reaped disastrous consequences for some of its smallest niche automakers. Gumpert, Wiesmann, Artega and Lola have all filed for bankruptcy this year, and it appears that tuners are not immune to the tough times, either.
Word coming in from across the pond suggests that 9ff and SpeedArt - two of the biggest names in Porsche tuning - have filed for bankruptcy as well. 9ff is best known for the GT9, a radical hypercar barely based on the 911, while SpeedArt was once of the foremost tuners of Porsches.
Fortunately there are still plenty of tuners ready to take a wrench to your Elfen, but the reported demise of these two makes the market a little bit smaller and - for Porsche enthusiasts - maybe the world a little bit lonelier, too.
Evo makes the case for the world's best driving road in Majorca
Tue, 05 Aug 2014What good is a sports car if you haven't got a great place to drive it? It's a common refrain that we've heard time and time again. But few are as familiar with the problem as they are in the UK, where the number of people, cars on the road and traffic cameras keep growing to conspire against the joy of driving. Leave it to Evo, then, to depart in search of the greatest driving road in the world.
It's a pursuit that's taken the British car mag across Europe, most recently to Romania's Carpathian Mountains where it added the Transalpina Pass to its short list. But its latest journey has taken Evo to the Spanish island of Majorca, where Henry Catchpole found not one, but two spectacular driving roads from behind the wheel of the new Porsche Boxster GTS. We could drone on about the smooth, empty ribbons of twisting tarmac with excellent visibility and panoramic vistas... but you really want to see the video for yourself. Don't miss Evo's previous trip to Romania in the Jaguar F-Type, which we've included below, as well.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
