Up for auction is one 1979 Porsche 928 5 speed, very red, rescued about 18 months ago.  Affectionately referred to as an Old Bugger in the 928 community, it's a no sunroof, single mirror, early example of one of the great road cars of all time.



New:

- timing belt / water pump / rollers / tensioner rebuild
- fuel pump / filter
- warm up regulator (rebuilt)
- distributor cap / rotor / ignition leads / plugs
- brake pads / steel lines / ATE blue
- completely refreshed intake / silicon vacuum hoses / correct emissions / gaskets / elbow grease
- all accessory belts
- tie rods / steering rack boots / input shaft seal
- axle boots / grease / reversed
- CA catalytic converter
- Borla cat-back 
- rear carpet
- all fluids including fresh redline 75w90 ns in transmission
- 4 wheel alignment

This beauty just passed California emissions with some ultra clean numbers.  It has been repainted somewhere along the line, I'd call it fair to good otherwise.  The interior is really pretty good, the dash still needs some work.  Tires are 225 all around on the classic phone dials.  It's running really well and ready for a steady, daily driving, caretaker.  I have too many of these beasts and can't exercise them properly as it is.  I'd like to start another rescue, keep these remarkable automobiles on the road as long as possible.  If you've driven one you know what I mean.  If you haven't, you'll get it after your first 500 mile road trip.  This car is ready for the finishing touches.  The sound, on the gas, with the borla...  priceless.

Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing

Thu, 09 May 2013

In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.

Porsche wants you to 3D print your own Cayman

Tue, 10 Dec 2013

Have you got access to a 3D printer? Well lucky you, because as we're rapidly learning, the possibilities are virtually endless. And if your tastes lean towards the automotive (as we'd assume they do if you're reading this page), we've got good news.
Porsche has just released 3D printing data for the Cayman S so you can three-dimensionally print out your own and customize to your heart's content. Now Porsche hasn't specified just to what scale the data will allow you to print your Cayman, but we have a feeling that'd mostly be limited by the size of the printer at your disposal. Check it out in the video below and follow the link to the Porsche site to download the file.

Porsche acquires ANDIAL, will integrate with in-house motorsports

Sat, 16 Feb 2013

Porsche has purchased longtime motorsports and tuning house ANDIAL.
The Fountain Valley, California-based tuning house ANDIAL has been around since 1975, when it was formed by the Arnold Wagner, Dieter Inzenhofer and Alwin Springer (the company got its name by combining two letters from each of their names). The three men met while working in a Porsche dealership in Southern California and then left to start a business that would put Porsches in victory lane all over the country.
Porsches prepared by ANDIAL won IMSA GT and Supercar Series championships, the SCCA World Challenge, four Pikes Peak class titles and the 24 Hours of Daytona six times. Alwin Springer left the company in 1997 to run Porsche Motorsport North America until 2004 and remains a consultant with PMNA, Wagner passed away in 2011 and Inzenhofer plans to retire this year. ANDIAL is still a going concern, Inzenhofer presiding over a scaled-down engine parts and restoration business. But Inzenhofer is retiring at month's end, making it a good time for Porsche to step in and take over the company's operations.
