For sale is an All-Original 1975 Porsche 914 1.8 Liter California Car in Forest Green with Tan Vinyl Interior.  The car was sold in California and spent it's life from 1975 to 2004 in Desert south of San Francisco. It has the little EGR Light in Dashboard.  I have a copy of the California Title.  I also have the pair of original Blue & Yellow California License Plates that stay with the car for the life of the car while it is in California.  I purchased in 2004 and it has been garage kept in Pennsylvania.


The car is essentially corrosion free.  The paint and Interior are all original and as such I have not touched either at all.  It has all it's scratches, dings, dents, and tears from its years of use as a daily driver in California.. Someone installed an aftermarket car stereo but I have the Original AM/FM Factory Radio.  They installed speakers in the door panels but this is easily repaired.

I have gone through the car mechanically and rebuilt the entire rear undercarriage. Rear CV Joints/ New CV Joint Boots, Rear Hub Bearings (replacing these is a job hence most 914s have worn out rear hub bearings and make alot of noise at speed).  The shocks are Bilsteins, the new Coil springs are the stock units from George Hussey at 914 Atlanta.  New Flexible Brake Lines, Rotors, Rebuilt Calipers , Pads.

New Bursch Exhaust System. (as close to stock as available), new Bosch Starter, Stainless Steel Heat Exchangers, New Clutch Cable, New Throttle Cable.  Brand New Michelins on the original Mahle Gas Burner Mags.

New Master Cylinder., New Gas Pedal NOS from 914 Atlanta. Lots of NOS Porsche replacement parts in this car !

The Engine has been gone through. New Push Rod Tubes, Valve Job.  The L-Jetronic Fuel Injection system has been completely gone through by a german car fuel injection professional with new Bosch Fuel Injectors installed, Numerous new Bosch L-jet Fuel Injection parts throughout. ( I have a whole box of NOS Bosch Service items for the Bosch L-jetronic including injectors , sensors, air regulator, etc not included in the sale of this car but available for sale).  The engine starts easily and idles nicely even in the cold. I had the car out two weeks ago for the photos and it ran beautifully.

There is Zero Corrosion in Battery Tray area.  I have removed lead acid battery and installed a GEL Cell unit.

Up front I changed out wheel bearings and brake pads.  The rotors were excellent so I lturned them and left them in place.  Had I kept the car another season I was planning on finishing off the undercarriage with two front Bilstein shocks, 2 Porsche lower Balljoints, a Turbo-TireRod End Kit..  These are the only items that I can see being done to completely finish off the undercarriage rebuild.  Otherwise this car runs like it was when it was new.  The Rack and Pinion unit is very tight.  Believe me, if it needed it I would have put one in.  Underneith the car has  everything is as it was from the factory... no missing deflectors, heat shields, access covers... it's all Correct.

Last Summer I completely rebuilt the steering column.  Porsche 914 people will know about this.  old 914s tend to have sloppy steering wheels due to wear of the column bearings.  I removed the wheel and installed NOS Porsche Turn signal Lever switch, High Beam Dimmer switch, the White Plastic Ignition switch, and New Column Bearings.... The steering wheel is factory tight with all new switches.  See the Photos

If you're looking for an A1 all original Car all complete and ready to enjoy driving this is your car.  If you gotta have a 1973-74 2.0 liter car than you're gonna pay twice as much for a car in this condition.

I've restored 6 of these cars over the past 20 years or so.  If you have any questions please dont hesitate to email.

Recharge Wrap-up: Porsche 911 hybrid possible, Ecocruise EVs coming soon

Thu, Oct 9 2014

The next-generation Porsche 911 could use hybrid power, according to Porsche CEO Matthias Muller. "There is no reason against it and we will see if we have some reasons to do it," Muller says of the model due around 2018. He also suggests that hybrid technology could eventually make its way into all Porsche model lines, but that the Boxster and Cayman would first get four-cylinder versions. Muller cites carbon emissions and "sportiness" as reasons to use hybrid power, pointing to the 918 Spyder as a good example of both. Read more at Car Advice. A B-Class F-Cell from the Mercedes-Benz fleet has hit a benchmark of 300,000 kilometers (about 186,411 miles) in everyday use. The achievement won Daimler an "f-cell award" for hydrogen fuel cell technology and innovation. The 300+ fuel cell cars in the Daimler fleet have driven a collective 9 million-plus kilometers (more than 5.5 million miles). The information gathered from this testing is being used to improve development as the company looks toward expanding commercialization of fuel cell cars. "We have clearly demonstrated that the fuel cell electric drive is ready for the road," says Professor Herbert Kohler of Daimler. "The last hurdles we will overcome in intensive cross-industry and cross-border teamwork." Read more in the press release below. A company called Ecocruise has new EVs coming out soon. Along with electric scooters and service vehicles, Ecocruise develops street-legal neighborhood electric vehicles like the three-wheeled EZip-3, the four-wheeled EZip-4, and the fun looking Cruser Sport (see a prototype in the video below). The EVs are scheduled to go on sale in January of 2015, which is right around the corner. Ecocruise was started after the founder of Kasea Motorsports decided to switch to electric vehicles with the goal of offering providing affordable emissions-free driving. Learn more about Ecocruise and its vehicles at the company's website. The new EU Fuel Quality Directive (FQD) does little to discourage dirty fuels like tar sands and coal-to-liquid, says Transport & Environment (T&E). The FQD requires suppliers to reduce greenhouse gas intensity for transport fuel in the EU by six percent by 2020. The much-delayed FQD doesn't do as much as it could, though, say critics, and it doesn't label dirtier fuel sources as such despite the urging of scientists. T&E, an organization focused on cleaning up EU transport, blames Canada, the US and Big Oil.

Jay Leno's Dodge Challenger raises $585k for USO in Scottsdale

Mon, Jan 19 2015

Of all the metal moved in Scottsdale, AZ, this holiday weekend, the one you see here was hardly the most expensive. But it's noteworthy for another reason: despite being a relatively humble, second-hand 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8, raised an impressive $565,625. That's because, first of all, it belonged to Jay Leno, and secondly because the proceeds were going to the USO. Leno donated the modern muscle car from his collection to benefit our men and women in uniform, and was on hand to present the car on stage at the Gooding & Company auction, along with USO president J.D. Crouch II and former Army chief of staff General George W. Casey, Jr. After frenzied and patriotic bidding, the gavel ultimately dropped at $360,000, accompanied by over $200,000 in additional contributions, bringing the total amount donated to the USO to over half a million. Commendable though it was, of course the Challenger didn't garner the highest bids at the auction. A 1959 Ferrari 250 GT LWB California Spider sold for $7.7 million and a 1968 Ferrari 330 GTS fetched $2.4 million. A rare 1962 Ferrari 400 Superamerica Series I Coupe Aerodinamico sold for over $4,070,000 – which, according to Sports Car Market, is the most ever paid at auction for a 400 Superamerica. And a 1966 Porsche 906 Carrera 6 also sold for a record $1.98 million.

Porsche Cayenne spied unconstrained by camouflage

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Meet the facelifted Porsche Cayenne. Our eagle-eyed spy shooters captured this example of Porsche's freshened SUV virtually devoid of camo, giving us our clearest look yet at what the eventual mid-cycle work will do to the strong-selling Cayenne.
The overall changes do, indeed, look minor, with a reprofiled intake being the most obvious item. The headlights are still covered, so we don't know what kind of jeweling has been done, but the shape does appear identical to the current model. Overall, the changes appear totally in line with a mid-cycle refresh.
As we explained previously, a plug-in Cayenne is on the way. It will join a crop of engines that is likely to be similar to what's on offer today, with naturally aspirated, turbocharged, hybrid and diesel variants released over time.
