Original California Car--this Head Turner Is Ideal For The Fun/ Thrill Seeker on 2040-cars
Middletown, California, United States
|
This beautiful little vehicle was modified by previous owner for maximum speed. The heat exchanger was removed for weight and power savings, a performance cam was added, along with a counterbalanced crankshaft, aluminum rods, performance pistons, solid lifters, and dual 40 Weber carbs. The battery tray has been removed and battery relocated to rear trunk for better weight distribution and room in the engine bay. Engine bay, rear and front trunk storage areas and undercarriage have been coated with a protective spray (similar to truck bed liner material.)
We have modified the exhaust system by adding stock heat exchangers with a tubular header with muffler attached. The cabin itself is not heated. The interior is in good condition, and the classic sports steering wheel has a great feel. Carpets are new, windshield is new and all glass is tinted. Electronic ignition is new. Dash has one or two minor cracks and a CD player has bee added. All electronics function fine. Front brakes are upgraded BMW 320i and rear brakes have been rebuilt (new standard rotors and pads all around) Transmission is smooth and all linkage bushings have been replaced. Car came with two vintage 911 seats which we replaced with new Corbeau bucket sports seats for a better fit. The 911s are included in the sale. One seat has a slight tear in the seat. I have found NO RUST here. |

A closer look at the 2015 Porsche Macan
Wed, 27 Nov 2013
He assured us that "this is a sports car."
Porsche took the wraps off its all-new 2015 Macan at the LA Auto Show last week, and while it's easy to write it off as just a badge-engineered version of the Audi Q5, you'd be very, very wrong. For starters, 75 percent of the car's platform was re-engineered by the Porsche team, and with a choice of two twin-turbocharged engines, the Macan should absolutely live up to the brand's pedigree.
Magnus Walker pops up again, this time with his Irish Green 911
Sun, 06 Oct 2013He was the subject of a short film called Urban Outlaw. He has been on Jay Leno's Garage. Twice. He even graced the cover of Road & Track in June. And after all of that, he appeared in a video by Hong Kong-based Silly Thing. So it isn't really surprising that Magnus Walker is at the center of attention in the latest video from XCAR, but it's surprising - and a treat - to see his mostly original Irish Green 1966 Porsche 911.
Powered by an air-cooled 2.0-liter flat six with 130 horsepower (more like 120 hp today, Walker says), riding on 5.5-inch wide wheels and turned with a wooden steering wheel, the little green 911 does represent some of the best aspects of classic car motoring.
Head on below to watch the long-form video on Walker and his Porsche, but if your time is limited, you're not missing much if you call it quits at five minutes - especially if you've seen his aforementioned videos before.
Porsche Macan to get four-cylinder engines
Tue, 10 Dec 2013Porsche hasn't offered a four-cylinder engine since the 968 went out of production in 1995 - the better part of two decades ago. There'd been talk of a four-pot Boxster or an even smaller model to slot in below it, but while the latest intel indicates that Porsche is moving ahead with its four-cylinder plans, it's a different kind of vehicle that will get it first.
That, of course, would be the new Macan. Just revealed a few weeks ago at the LA Auto Show, the Macan crossover is being launched with a pair of twin-turbocharged V6 engines (a 3.0 with 340 horsepower and a 3.6 with 400 hp) and a six-cylinder turbodiesel with 258 hp. But smaller engines, according to emerging reports from Autocar and Auto Express, are on their way.
Word has it that Porsche is preparing a 2.0-liter turbo four with 280 horsepower and a diesel with the same displacement and cylinder count, engines that will power new entry-level Macan models that will slot in beneath the existing Macan S, Macan S Diesel and Macan Turbo. While the diesel is tipped to be ported over from the Volkswagen parts bin, the four-cylinder gasoline engine is said to be under development by Porsche itself, which could mean it will have a boxer layout.
