1986 Porsche 928s Project Restoration Upgrades on 2040-cars
Jasper, Georgia, United States
|
I purchased this 928S project last year with the intent to restore it, but have been focusing on other projects (928 5 speed) & it doesn't need to sit anymore.
The previous owner told me the water pump failed & it "might" need a head gasket. When the mechanic started inspecting, it was discovered the timing belt mechanism had failed & the timing belt slipped. Most likely that caused damage to the heads. There is little compression in this engine. Either the engine will need to be swapped (my original plan) or the heads rebuilt. The body is straight & true & appears to be free of any prior damage. The interior is not too bad considering the car's age. The battery was dead & removed. The exhaust is complete, including the catalytic converter, as is the suspension, brakes, etc. This car was on the road driving last in January, 2013, so it has not been sitting for years. The tires have decent tread, but have dry-rot & will need to be replaced. The paint has faded sitting in the Georgia sun, but can be brought back to a reasonable shine with a professional buff & wax. Please look at the photos which were just taken for an accurate analysis of the vehicle. The front seats shown came from an '85 parts car & I'm pretty sure they work properly, but they have not been hooked up to verify. This is a non-running project or parts car & priced accordingly. My hope someone will restore it and not use it for parts, as it is pretty good shape. Any winning bid over $3500, I will include a brand new water pump that was purchased shortly after buying the car. NO RESERVE! It will sell to the highest bidder. Good Luck! This car has a clear issue & lien free title. You are responsible for any taxes your state might charge & transportation. When using the ebay shipping calculator, keep in mind carriers charge more for non-running vehicles. I will work closely and promptly with your carrier to ensure prompt delivery. |

'Latest production version' of Porsche 918 shown off on Twitter
Fri, 16 Aug 2013Porsche posted a picture of what it is calling "the latest production version" of the 2015 Porsche 918 Spyder on Twitter. It looks like the gasoline-hybrid supercar is being driven sportively on some California back roads during Monterey Speed Week.
Whatever updates were made to this version aren't visual (except for the paint), as the one Chris Harris drove last spring and another seen hot-weather testing in Nevada both had production bodies. We presume the changes are relatively minor and more than skin deep - perhaps brake calibration, suspension tuning or tweaks to the powertrain - but Porsche didn't release any more information.
The 918 Spyder is Porsche's latest supercar, which will compete with the LaFerrari and the McLaren P1 hybrid supercars. The Porsche may be the underdog of the group when considering horsepower, acceleration, top speed and price, but the 887-horsepower brute has the most advanced hybrid drivetrain of the three.

Get lost in Evo's sublime 2013 Car of the Year testing
Fri, 08 Nov 2013Every year Evo stages its Car of the Year test, bringing the best performance cars in the world to one location for an epic shootout. This year the magazine pitted eight CotY finalists against each other on Route Napoleon in Southern France - Evo claims it's the "best road in the world" - and then proceeded to nitpick the smallest of faults on each car until the winner could be named. You see, this year's lineup of machines was just so good that only one car obviously wasn't CotY material from the get-go. Can you guess which one judging from the list below?
- Aston Martin V12 Vantage S
- Audi R8 V10 Plus
