Porsche 550 Style Alloy Body Vintage Racer. on 2040-cars
Fort Lauderdale, Florida, United States
Hello, this auction is
for a handmade vintage racer body and chassis only. Please read the full
description and photos, feel free to ask any questions.
This car is the best option for running some of the vintage races with the best ratio of fun to cost. I only sell what I make, that way you decide how much you want to spend on the engine, transmission, and other options. Delivery time is four months. The car will be custom built and fit for you, with several options available. Two place, or mono posto, that is also your choice. The car will be hand
built by myself, and my assistants in our small shop in Bogota, Colombia. I not
a parts salesman, I am a car builder, so I will not sell any of the parts required
to complete the car, but I will guide you to the right vendors. I will
also build a parts list with you. I want to make clear that although I won’t be
making any money off these parts, since you will be buying them directly, I
will work with you throughout the process. If you want me to assemble the car,
I can do it here or in the USA for you at an additional cost.
The car in the
photographs is my first prototype, the car you will be purchasing will be built
using our new buck, with a similar shape but better details. The new buck is
slightly more similar to the Porsche 550, but is still different enough not to
be a replica. Please see attached photos. This is a Porsche inspired car, not a
replica.
About the body:
The handmade body will be shaped out of 1.5mm aluminum, shaped using an English wheel and gas (oxy/acetylene) welded. The new car has a bonnet and opening rear. The aluminum seats are included, upholstered in leather on the color of your choice About the chassis:
The chassis is TIG
welded mild steel, in a shape similar to the Porsche RSK, but using a rear
suspension derived from the Formula Vee racers. This suspension has proven
itself during decades of racing and is lighter and stronger than the original
Porsche/VW. The chassis includes your choice of integral roll bar or
none.
What is included:
The alloy body, painted
or polished. with all necessary parts to be attached to the chassis. The
chassis, with all brackets and supports. The seats for the car. The stainless
steel fuel tank is also included in the price.
What is not included:
Rear shock, engine, transmission, wheels, steering wheel, pedals, front
suspension, brakes, steering box, and instruments. Everything else needed to
complete the car.
About the engine
options:
With the right vintage
engine and gearbox this car can race most of the vintage race events around the
world. Yes, it is not a four million dollar Porsche 550, but you will have just
as much fun driving it as the Porsche. Porsche 912 or VW engines and gearboxes
can be installed. You choose how much you want to spend. My opinion is that a
2000cc VW engine is the best option.
About delivery:
I will deliver the car
to you. That means I will take care of the transportation and import to the
USA. But It will be imported as parts. I am not a lawyer, so I will not
register the car for you, or assume any liability on its use as a
vehicle.
The car has been proven
at local events. You will have as much fun driving it as I have building them.
Please contact me for any additional info. |

Marchionne threatens to move Alfa production out of Italy
Fri, 12 Jul 2013Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne was unsurprisingly frank when asked by reporters about potential investments in Italian manufacturing for Alfa Romeo and Maserati, giving the Italian government the ultimatum, "Italy should decide if they want [Alfa Romeo's relaunch] to happen here or not as Fiat and Chrysler have several alternatives." Them's fightin' words.
Fiat's issue with the government stems directly from its courtroom clashes with the Fiom labor union. The two are currently embroiled in proceedings over longer shifts and shorter breaks, as Fiom has so far refused to sign a new contract citing revised labor laws that it says are anti-union.
According to Bloomberg, Fiat will be spending over $2.5 billion on development of eight new Alfas and six new Maseratis, in a bid to wrest some of the luxury pie away from BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi. But that's only going to happen if the government is willing to play ball and make life easier on Fiat.
The BMW M8 leads this month's list of discounts
Mon, Sep 21 2020Back in June of this year, the BMW 8 Series was the most heavily discounted vehicle in America. This month, it's the 617-horsepower M8. Midsummer buyers of the 2020 BMW M8, which is offered in hardtop, convertible and four-door Gran Coupe bodystyles, were seeing an average of $6,150 cut off the sticker; this month that figure has ballooned all the way to $16,864. That's more than 11% off the car's $150,000-plus retail price, and, according to data provided by TrueCar, it's the largest dollar amount sliced off the retail price of any car for the month of September. Next is the Maserati Quattroporte, buyers of which are saving $15,912 for an average transaction price of $99,763. If that's still too expensive, the smaller Ghibli's $70,030 average transaction price represents a huge 14.5% discount, earning the Italian sedan entry into our monthly top 10 best deals list. The third largest monetary discount in September comes off the $131,066 sticker price of the lovely 2019 Mercedes-AMG GT. Take $15,473 off that sum for an average transaction price of $115,593.

2017 Maserati Model Year Preview and Updates
Wed, Mar 1 2017From a storied past, to an almost-forgotten nameplate and to what it offers today – in the guise of two four door sedans, a coupe or convertible GT and its first-ever SUV – Maserati has, over the last several years, quietly exploded into the ranks of desirable brands. And with the introduction of the all-new Levante SUV (pictured above), the Italian marque once again confounds the skeptics. MASERATI LEVANTE: The Levante, Maserati's first-ever SUV, arrives in the US marketplace at exactly the right time, as interest in all-road capability has never been higher, and high-end offerings have never been more numerous. Supplying what Maserati describes as best-in-class on-road handling in 'sport' mode and leading off-road comfort, propulsion is supplied by your choice of two V6 powertrains: a 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6 with 345 horsepower in the Levante, and the same basic V6 with 424 horsepower in the Levante S. GHIBLI: Maserati's most accessible model, with a base price of just over $70K, is unchanged for 2017. GRAN TURISMO COUPE/CABRIOLET: Maserati's 2+2 coupe and convertible are unchanged for 2017. QUATTROPORTE: Maserati's luxury four-door receives an exterior nip here and tuck there, along with updated infotainment inside. Available in both GranLusso and GranSport, you can enjoy sport-oriented luxury or luxury-oriented sport. And unlike its siblings, which offer either V6 powertrains or V8 powertrains, the Quattroporte allows the buyer to select one from each column.
