I bought this car, 2 ,yrs. ago, and intended  a total restroration on it,,I had all belts, front seals, water pump, and clutch, attended to. tensioners, cam cover, and all the details,,,were attended to.

I put white face gauges, blue LED lights, and Polk audio..marine speakers..installed, a used top...( not pretty, but doesn't leak )....I then decided to paint some custom stripes....Irisblau, with amethyst pearl borders At the time of the stripes...the hood, rear cover, and quarter tops, were refinished.a B&B stainless exhaust was installed, and the brake shoes, and rotors were replaced, and turned..   the entire clutch, and brake system was bled...,the top surfaces were painted, the door handle gaskets, and both grills were replaced,.A set of LLoyds mats, aluminium pedals etc... I put a R 134 compressor, and seals on the car, and went no further...I had a career ending injury, and this wonderful project, came to a halt, 13 mo's ago.....and now we are here...

 

And now the bad...she has a few small dings,and a slight ding, at the top rear of the left door, , the 2 stage clutch, is stout to push...perhaps a bit much for the car...and I burned through the clear in a couple spots...trying to buff the ./..scuffed sides....I am very good at ,custom paint, as the picture shows...the Pres, of PCNA, said at Daytona, last year ...that the stripes, were the most stunning, he had  seen....,for what that is worth...,I have all the pieces to finish her....Aircraft aluminium camber plates, new clips, and gaskets, for the side skirts,..a new drier for the AC conversion, Oil filters, new motor mounts, and a box of little goodies...nuts, bolts, mounts...etc...for an owner who wants to keep her...as a final note...I will answer all questions, quickly, and courteously...remember...she is not perfect, the interior is good....IE, no dash cracks etc..but she is not done....Mechanically, solid as hell...SHE needs finished,,,don't buy her if you want a concourse car...buy her, if you want a damb dependable Porsche...Please remember..a few hours of paint, work, on each side, and a top, is all I would say this car needs.cosmetically, and the drier, and charge, on the ac.

One item, I had forgotten. The car was tow dollied backwards from Pa to Florida several monthes ago, and rather ruined the front tires...I don't drive her, so never replaced them..I also zeroed the odometer yesterday, and it stopped...I'll try to check it out today...hopefully I can get it squared..One item, I had forgotten. The car was tow dollied backwards from Pa to Florida, and rather ruined the front tires...I don't drive her, so never replaced them..I also zeroed the odometer yesterday, and it stopped...I'll try to check it out toda

Gathered all the spare's and goodies today...lots of new stuff, and some used goodies also....will place all in the trunk....found the stripe paint, also, Ill send it along to the buyer...If wanted I found all the original speakers in the store room...I would bet, any one who hears the quality of the polks...will leave them in...but Ill send them anyway.

I also have a fair amount of service history receipts, and will place them, with the owners manual, for your records..Timing belts, rollers, tensioners, water pump, etc, etc....I can be reached at 321/261/9631....

Are you the next Porsche 911 GT3 RS or GT2?

Thu, 17 Apr 2014

Porsche typically keeps to a suitably fast schedule when it comes to rolling out increasingly hard-core performance versions of the 911. After the 997 Carrera debuted in 2004, the GT3 version followed in 2006, and by the end of the 2007, Porsche had rolled out both the GT3 RS and GT2 versions. Then the facelifted 997.5 came out in 2008 and it was back to the start: the GT3 came in 2009, the GT3 RS and GT2 RS in 2010, and the GT3 RS 4.0 in 2011. But things have slowed down some with the latest 991 generation.
The new Carrera came in 2011 and the GT3 followed in 2012. By recent history's example, we should have at least two more hardcore models by now, but we don't. Maybe the engineers in Zuffenhausen have had their hands full fixing the spontaneous-combustion issues with the existing GT3, or maybe their attentions have been focused elsewhere altogether. But if these spy shots are anything to go by, it seems like they're back on the job.
Now we don't know if this prototype foreshadows a new GT3 RS or a GT2, but it sure looks more hard-core than the existing GT3 that many purists have derided as too soft, what with its automatic transmission and four-wheel steering.

Porsche 918 Spyder pre-production version in all its almost-done glory

Sun, 18 Aug 2013

Porsche continues the long tease of its upcoming 918 Spyder, with the latest instantiation here at the Pebble Beach Concours, with the car presented in pre-production form to the throngs on the golf course.
Just a few days ago Porsche dropped an image of the car on its official Twitter feed. True to that leak, this 918 looks damn near what we expect the full customer version to be when it is officially debuted in Frankfurt. The neon-green brake calipers are items new to this version of the 918, and seem to be an identical color to those found on the Panamera S E-Hybrid.
When it shows up as a drivable piece, expect the Porsche supercar, with its gasoline-electric drivetrain, to be pretty insane. Horsepower in excess of 800 ponies will be available with a toe-tap, while the price of entry is expected to come within shouting distance of $850,000. A good deal for Porsche to bring the thing to Pebble then, where buyers with that kind of cash are think on the ground (and most likely wearing sherbet-colored trousers).

This FL man accused of stealing drivers licenses has best tattoo ever

Thu, 10 Jul 2014

Bentley and Porsche are two of the jewels in Volkswagen Group's luxury brand crown, but in Florida they also have a very tenuous connection with crime. With his multiple face and neck tattoos, including a Bentley logo right between his eyes, Derek Denesevich (pictured above) has been charged with the surprising crime of alleged identity theft. He recently surrendered to a Florida court, and could face seven years in prison, if convicted.
You might wonder where Porsche fits into this. According to the Sun Sentinel, Denesevich's accomplice was one Porscha Kyles, who worked for the Broward Clerk of Courts. She allegedly used her access to driver's license records to steal information and sell it to Denesevich. He is then accused of filing fraudulent income taxes to recoup the refund checks.
According to the Sentinel, Kyles has already pleaded guilty to conspiracy and identity theft and was sentenced to three years and one day in prison. The duo reportedly stole over 100 identities and made at least $120,000. Scroll down for a video about this pair of auto-related criminals.
