Claremont, California, United States
If you have any questions feel free to email me at: joleenjnnogales@artfriend.com . his is a real Porsche 356 – Cox was out to replicate Dean Jeffries custom 356 outlaw shown in my picture .Bare metal restoration in 2004 at Cox Motorsports in Grandview (Kansas City) mo.
This could be the most beautiful 356 Porsche coupe in existence! It is definitely NOT stock! Well over $100k invested to create the ultimate 356 hot rod.
Starting with a rust free 63 coupe, the car was stripped to bare metal, and totally rebuilt from the ground up. Beautifully installed new larger 911 battery box and pan at time of restoration.
Notice the incredible roofline...it has been chopped 2 inches to resemble the profile of the Porsche Abarth Carrerras.
Front fenders sloped to look similar to the A 356 fender line.
Headlights dished like Ferrarri Dino. Door handles removed, filled with metal perfectly, remote door openers installed...this blows them away at Starbucks! Show quality paint by Mike Winfrey. Won best paint at World of Wheels. Color is Porsche linen silver and applied and buffed to perfection!
Power windows, recessed license plate, and early 356 beehive taillights.
Perfect correct red interior. New carpet, headliner. New 12v wiring, modern snap in fuse box system, eliminating the hassle of old glass fuses.
All mechanicals by Cox Motorsports, the best 911 race shop in the country. Perfect 1978 3 liter 275 hp 911SC motor, 5-speed 901 gearbox, and 911 transaxle.
The front mechanicals are all 356 – the rear mechanicals are all 911.
Heater from the 911 engine works great.911 disk brakes all around, new shocks, suspension, uprights reinforced like Cox's Porsche racecars, 911 alloy wheels. Charcoal filter for gas tank, Turn signals hidden above headlights, Front fender oil cooler with thermostatically controlled fan (never overheats), Aeroquip oil lines to the motor. New Weber tuned carbs, detailed engine compartment. Performance is like no 356 you have ever driven, very, very fast and reliable. The exhaust note is spectacular, coming from the Cox Custom Exhaust system that is silver jet hot coated. This car is truly spectacular, the only one like it in the world, and gets more looks than you can imagine. It looks just right, very subtle, so the guys who appreciate the classics love this car, and the guys who love performance go nuts when they look under the custom louvered deck lid. This is your chance to have one of the most unique, beautiful Porsches anywhere. If you want it, you had better get it, because you will never see another one like this.

1949 Gm?nd Porsche shows the birth of an icon
Fri, 21 Mar 2014The Austrian village of Gmünd is more than just difficult to pronounce; it's also the birthplace of the Porsche brand. Before the company ever started building sports cars at its current home base near Stuttgart, the fledgling business completed several vehicles in the tiny town in Southern Austria. In this video, former Pikes Peak International Hill Climb champion Jeff Zwart takes a look at a 1949 Gmünd coupe to see how the company has evolved since its earliest days.
The thing to note about the Gmünd-built Porsches is their absolute design simplicity. The phrase "form follows function" gets bandied around a lot, but it really means something when you look at these early cars. However, the minimalism was partially out of necessity. The vehicles were meant to be sporty but certainly weren't rockets. Power came courtesy of a modified Volkswagen Beetle engine, and anything extraneous would have slowed the models down. Scroll down to watch Zwart go back in time to Porsche's beginnings.

Porsche spotted testing next-gen Panamera in the snow
Thu, Jan 22 2015It's winter testing season in northern Sweden, and the latest spy shots our paparazzi on the ground have brought us is the upcoming Porsche Panamera testing in the cold and snow. The upcoming new four-door Porsche, spied wearing only minimal camouflage, appears to have a more elegant and sloping roofline than the existing model. Other details like the lights, mirrors and grille openings look fairly consistent with what we've been seeing on Porsche's other models as they've trickled out. Based on the new MSB platform, the new Panamera is set to share its underpinnings with the next Bentley Continental and possibly an Audi variant as well – though the prospect of a Lamborghini version to follow the Estoque concept seems to be off the table. The new platform will, however, make the new Panamera lighter than the current model. A new range of V6 and V8 engines are expected to provide motivation, driving the rear wheels or all four, along with the available e-hybrid system. Porsche's first four-door sedan was introduced in 2009 and underwent a facelift in 2013, so the all-new second-generation model should arrive sometime later this year or next as a 2017 model. This new model could provide the impetus for Porsche to put the Sport Turismo shooting brake version into production as well, and maybe – just maybe – a two-door coupe and possible convertible versions to follow in the footsteps of the 928.
