Up for auction is a 1976 Porsche 914 2.0L that has gone through a complete restoration to make it the beauty you see today. In the past this car was used as a show car for local car club meets and events. No expense was spared during the professional restoration of this 914 (With 1200 hours and over $25,000 in receipts). The motor is the original 2.0L that has been completely rebuilt making it a 2.45L, stock crank with 103mm pistons and dual Weber carbs feeding it. The paint on the car looks great with no major imperfections to speak of. This car was originally red from the factory. The front and rear bumpers are both in good condition with some wear showing to both. The sails and top have both been painted to match the body. All the glass looks great with the exception of the windshield having a small 5" crack at the top passenger side. The interior has been finished in red and gray which looks great! The dash and center console are both in red with red stitching which gives the car a very rich, elegant look. Both seats are in good condition with minimal wear showing. All gauges are in good working order as well as all lights, blinkers, wipers and horn. Also has power windows, power antenna and a 12 disc CD changer. The shifter and steering wheel are both made by MOMO. The car has, an Omni Pack, mild performance cam, SS heat exchangers, Burshch exhaust and a performance air dam. The motor runs great and is a blast to drive. Recently installed is a new voltage regulator, ignition, axle boots, starter and both carbs rebuilt and tuned. It's a great road runner and will out corner anything on the road. According to the VIN number this was the 350th to the last 914 ever made. This car has gone through a complete tear down and rebuild with every nut and bolt being replaced. (literally) only 18,518 miles since then.This car has always been garaged and has no rust. There is a small area near the dirvers handle with a bit of raised up paint and a couple of spots where a touch up paint pin was used. 

Also in the auction I am throwing in some extra parts: New clutch and accelerator cables, voltage regulator, oil screen gasket, carburetor brackets and gaskets.

I will also throw in my Haynes manual, custom Porsche key fob with light up key, original black key and red valet key and an extra key I had made. Also, I will send the original sales brochure (from 1976), owners manual, a 914 magazine article and my red diecast mini car (nice touch for the workbench).  Reasonable reserve. Good Luck!

VW will reportedly offer cash to cheated diesel car drivers

Sun, Nov 8 2015

If you're feeling burned by Volkswagen's decision to cheat on diesel emissions tests, you might get some compensation for your troubles. Sources for The Truth About Cars understand that VW will launch a "TDI Goodwill Program" that compensates diesel car drivers with cash in the form of prepaid cards. In the US, you'd get both a $500 universal card as well as a VW-only card worth $500 to $750. The automaker isn't confirming details just yet, but it tells the New York Times that it's planning an announcement on Monday. Dealers also tell the newspaper that they're aware of a program in the works, although they don't know the specifics. It may not include the expanded range of cars reportedly tainted by the scandal, though, since VW is denying claims that it cheated with some models. This isn't the only olive branch VW has been offering: it's been handing out deals to existing owners willing to hop into new vehicles, and there are more discounts than usual across the board. However, the goodwill effort would represent the first instance of VW directly compensating drivers who'd previously thought they were getting an eco-friendly machine. This isn't going to make up for years of unnecessary pollution, but it may represent the company's best hope of holding on to customers.

Porsche hybrids come up short at Le Mans

Tue, Jun 17 2014

Two cars, one finish, zero victories. That's a brief synopsis of Porsche's hybrid-vehicle performance in the 24 Hours of Le Mans race in France. There's always next year. Porsche entered two 919 Hybrid vehicles in the race. The No. 14 car essentially limped to the finish line after encountering drivetrain problems. The other Porsche hybrid, No. 20, was driven by Germany's Timo Bernhard, New Zealand's Brendon Hartley and Australia's Mark Webber. That car ran for more than 22 hours before its own powertrain issues did that racing team in for good. Both vehicles ran towards the front of the pack at times during the race, and the No. 20 car actually led the race after about 20 hours. Still, both teams said they were disappointed in the results. Porsche sister company Audi came up big for the 13th time in the race's long and storied history. One Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro won the race, while another finished second. The Toyota that had pole-position and was winning much of the race shut down after 15 hours of racing because of electrical issues and Nissan had trouble with is ZEOD RC. Check out Porsche's press release below, and read here for a more general race recap. STRONG PERFORMANCE BY PORSCHE 919 HYBRIDS BUT NO DREAM ENDING IN PROTOTYPE RETURN TO LE MANS Le Mans. After a strong performance by both Porsche 919 Hybrids, the Porsche Team was left empty-handed after a dramatic final stage of the race. Following more than 22 hours, car No. 20 driven by Timo Bernhard (Germany), Brendon Hartley (New Zealand) and Mark Webber (Australia) suffered a powertrain problem at the world's most famous endurance race, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Earlier in the race the LMP1 class car was leading overall for a significant period of time. The second innovative and highly complex prototype – in the hands of Romain Dumas (France), Neel Jani (Switzerland) and Marc Lieb (Germany) – likewise proved to be very competitive, but was hampered by a drivetrain problem. However, their No. 14 car crossed the finish line under its own power. After a thrilling start to the race with changing weather conditions, numerous accidents and a relatively calm night, Bernhard took the overall lead in the No. 20. The longtime Porsche factory driver returned to the top spot after 20 of the 24 hours. At 12:36 (CET) on Sunday, he handed the leading car over to Webber. Less than 20 minutes later the Australian was forced to slow down and drove solely on electric power back to pit lane.

Lamborghini Miura, Porsche 911 highlight Techno Classica

Mon, Apr 11 2016

Visitors to the Techno Classica show in Germany this weekend were treated to the spectacle of all manner of classic cars under the roof of the Messe Essen. Not surprisingly, the Volkswagen Group was well represented, with the historical departments of two of its flagship marques showcasing their in-house restoration projects – albeit in radically different states of repair. While Porsche brought a completely restored example of a particularly storied 911, Lamborghini went the opposite route by displaying the bare body-in-white for a Miura. With the Miura now celebrating its 50th anniversary, Lamborghini's recently launched PoloStorico division is in the process of restoring several examples. Chassis #5030 is a Miura SV that, as you can see, is still in the middle of its refurbishment, its frame corrected but still unfinished – but that didn't stop the Raging Bull marque from putting it on display. It was joined by the freshly completed green example (chassis #4846) that was the department's first project, as well as the engine from a Miura P400S. Meanwhile, Porsche Classic arrived with a lovely 911 2.5 S/T, the precursor of the 911 RSR. One of only 24 examples made, this particular vehicle won its class at Le Mans in 1972 at the hands of works driver Jurgen Barth (who would alter claim victory overall in '77). It was rediscovered in poor health decades later by a collector, who commissioned Porsche Classic to bring it back to life. The task proved monumental, the vehicle having been modified, crashed, rusted, and used as a playground for children. Both vehicles aptly demonstrate the kind of care that these manufacturers' own restoration departments put into preserving their company's legacy. If you weren't in Essen this weekend to see them first-hand, you can check them both out in the pair of image galleries.
