This is a 1982 Porsche 928 with 135k miles on it. The interior was removed from the previous owner to recover the dash (it was cracked like most old cars) so the interior will need to be put back in and a new carpet kit. I was planning on leaving the interior out and caging it and making into a track car but lost interest. Clean title, the previous owner said the car sat for a while and the fuel turned to lacquer and the fuel lines needed to be cleaned and a battery put in it and it should run. The previous owner also put a new transmission in it but since I don't have it running I can't promise that it works. The body is in excellent condition, it has one coffee can style dent on the passenger rear quarter panel, and the paint will need to be redone. All original. Aluminum front quarter panels, hood and doors with a galvanized body so NO RUST! it was the fastest production car in 1982 and cost over $100k by todays prices. Has new fuel pump, new transmission and BBS wheels. Wheels are worth over $600 alone. NO BONDO AT ALL AND CLEAN TITLE IN HAND! Rear transmission for perfect 50/50 weight distribution. car and driver in 82' said "it holds to the corners to absurd limits". only 38k were made! all aluminum 4.5 liter v8 to save weight. Transmission is located in the back for perfect 50/50 weight distribution! Is a awesome project but lost interest. Pick up only unless you contact me and you figure out shipping in which case we can work it out. great car just needs some tlc and will make a awesome car.

NHTSA closes probe into 2011 Porsche 911 coolant leaks
Thu, 13 Mar 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it will end its investigation into rapid coolant loss in 24,635 Porsche 911s built between 2001 and 2011. The models affected included the standard 911, GT2, GT3 and Turbo, as well as their variants (GT2 RS, GT3 RS and Turbo S).
NHTSA was investigating for "rapid coolant loss caused by coolant pipe-fitting failure, allegedly resulting in vehicle disablement and/or loss of vehicle control due to reduced traction for the affected vehicle or following traffic," according to the regulators website. "Most of the leak complaints did not appear to involve complete separation of the fittings and many were detected when the vehicle was parked," said NHTSA's statement.
There were 63 complaints and 336 warranty claims, although the investigation was initiated after ten complaints from customers. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries attributed to rapid coolant loss.
Watch onboard video of the Porsche 918 Spyder's record 'Ring lap
Tue, 10 Sep 2013"Pics or it didn't happen!" You could almost hear the Internet shouting this when news started to trickle in about a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap by the new Porsche 918 Spyder. Well, after an official press release, which we ran earlier today, we have your "pics." Moving pics, to be more exact. Porsche has released on-board footage of the 6:57 lap.
The video, which runs about eight-and-a-half minutes, and shows the 918 from inside the car on a flying lap of the German track. Perhaps what's remarkable is just how undramatic it all looks. Sure, there's some sawing at the wheel from test driver Marc Lieb (one of three testers, including legendary rally king Walter Röhrl), but he makes wrangling the Martini-liveried 918 look kind of easy.
Take a look down below for the full, on-board video, and then click over and read our initial write-up from earlier this morning and take a glance at the more stylized video that Porsche originally posted.
Porsche 911 RSR in bizarre, terrifying rally crash
Sun, 22 Sep 2013As far as rally crashes go, this one is pretty terrifying. At this month's Hellendoorn Rally, Harry Kleinjan failed to negotiate a turn and drove his Porsche 911 RSR straight into a Jersey barrier, flipping the car into the river.
While it's unclear what caused the accident, German Car Scene notes, "We can see his brakes locking up ahead of the impact, which also ripped both driver's side wheels off, so it may be a case of ill-judged late braking, locking brakes or a jammed throttle." Us? We're betting it might have been bad pace notes. Fortunately for Harry and his co-driver, all indications are that no one was hurt. Check out the videos below to see the spectacular crash for yourself.
