This car started as a daily driver with a short commute for the first two years of its life and than to an occasional good weather vehicle. I purchased this car from the original owner in 2008 with less than 25K miles. The car is in excellent condition with just over 30,000 miles now. The 1.8 liter engine retains its original fuel injection and runs flawlessly. In 1990, the original owner believed he would keep the car forever, so he completely disassembled the car, brought it to bare metal, and painted the entire car inside and out. The two trunks, underbody, engine compartment and interior were painted a black imron that shows very well. The exterior was changed from green to what I believe is Guards red. The car handles like a dream and needs nothing. The interior shows that it has been garage kept its entire life with no sun damage to dash or seats. There are no rips or tears in the interior. I would consider the car to be a collector quality due to its low mileage and original condition. The car has the Appearance Group option which gives the center guage console and fog lights. The car has never had rust anywhere on the vehicle. The only upgrades are stainless heat exchangers and pointless distributor. I have the original AM radio and speakers that go with the purchase.
I recommend a personal inspection.
Transport is the buyers responsibility.
The car is for sale locally and the auction may end sooner than auction end.

Preparing for Le Mans 2014 Porsche remembers 1971 and the 917 [w/video]
Sun, 07 Apr 2013Porsche has given us another look back at its successes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This time it's 1971, the year that its 917 set records that haven't all been eclipsed. It's 45-kilogram magnesium tube frame was the lightest, Jackie Oliver set the fastest in-race lap with a time that still stands, and winning drivers Helmut Marko - the same Helmut Marko currently with Infiniti Red Bull Racing - and Gilles Lethem did so many laps that their distance wasn't exceeded until the Audi R15 TDI did it in 2010.
1971 was also the year of the "Pink Pig." With bodywork created by a French aerodynamics firm, the wider, rounder 917 earned the porcine moniker so Porsche painted it pink and labeled it with the cuts you'd get from a pig. Sponsor Martini was so miffed they demanded all Martini branding be removed. No one can remove the thousands of photographs taken of the car ever since. Enjoy that and more in the video below.
Porsche would have entered F1 if Audi had blocked its Le Mans program
Thu, 13 Mar 2014Go back a few years and you may have heard rumors of Porsche heading into Formula One. That never came to pass - or at least, it hasn't yet - but that doesn't mean that it wasn't close to happening. That's how committed to returning to top-level motorsport competition Porsche has become recently.
Autosport reports that just as Porsche was merging fully into the Volkswagen Group, Zuffenhausen was weighing its options for a factory racing program. Le Mans was its favorite, which makes sense, as it remains far and away the most successful constructor in the history of the famous endurance race. But the strategists at Porsche were worried that its new corporate overlords at Volkswagen wouldn't support two LMP1 programs and would favor Audi, which has positively dominated the modern era of endurance racing, coming second only to Porsche in the number of Le Mans victories it has scored to date.
Porsche's Plan B was reportedly to head into Formula One, although it isn't clear if the German automaker was intent on starting its own team, buying an existing one or merely providing engines to other teams. Porsche fielded its own cars in F1 in the late 1950s and early 60s, and returned as an engine supplier with TAG to power McLaren in the 1980s, powering Niki Lauda and Alain Prost to the World Championship in 1984 and 1985.
