Selling this project that never got started.

I have the glass (no cracks), most of the trim, gauges, seats, original wheels, gas tank, wiper motor and arm assembly, original Hella lenses, rear seats, engine lid louvers, and all of what I would call the major parts. Some of the smaller parts are new repro or NOS, like some trim pieces, some lenses, a Bosch distributor, and some other miscellaneous stuff. Motor and drivetrain are original and complete.

Rockers and floor are totally shot. Lots of surface rust throughout interior metal. The last (original) owner started to do some patch work and didn't do a good job; it has to be redone. Doors, window channels, roof, engine lid are decent. nose is fair. trunk lid (in front) is rough. Door hinges are good and with no door sag. I think most if not all of the metal needs attention, but certainly not beyond restoration.

As far as I know, the car drove up until about 1985 when it was put in a garage where it sat until I took ownership in 2012. It deteriorated quite a bit as the garage it sat in was not suitable for storing a car.

I am more interested in a roadster than a hardtop. I was going to chop the top off but couldn't bring myself to butcher a restorable car of this stature, so I'm sadly letting it go in search of something else.

I'll be happy to answer any questions or send additional photos.

*UPDATE - I stated in the description that "Motor and drivetrain are original and complete". After being asked to provide the body VIN and Engine ID, I realized that I never actually researched it myself and just took the word of the previous (original) owner of the car. I did not verify that it is in fact the original 1964 engine in the car. I did some research but the numbers I found were inconclusive. Body ID is 128304. Engine ID 733213. I do not want to misrepresent what is here, so please check for yourself and make you own conclusions.

2015 Porsche Cayman GTS

Thu, 29 May 2014

The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.

This man literally loves a Porsche [NSFW]

Mon, May 11 2015

Think you know what "auto erotic" means? Think again. Because one man in Thailand has redefined the term. Caught on security camera footage this guy lurks into a garage, looks over both shoulders, evidently misses the camera, drops trou and has his way with a Porsche Boxster. When the tailpipe proved too hot (or otherwise inhospitable), he moves up to the radiator grille and – ahem Â– finishes up there. Sadly this isn't even the first time we've come across this particular perversion. We'd urge caution before viewing the video, not only because it's not suitable for a workplace environment, but because once you see it, you're bound to repeatedly blurt out, "Why, man!? Why?"

Autocar pits Porsche 911 Turbo S against Formula 4 racer

Fri, 20 Jun 2014

There is a long-running argument among performance car fans: power vs. weight. In one corner you get cars generally with small engines making modest numbers but able to corner like they are telepathic, and in the other there are big thumping mills that are rocketships in a straight line but lumber in the turns. Autocar takes an interesting look this continuum in a recent video pitting a 552-hp Porsche 911 Turbo S against a 185-hp Formula 4 racecar. It hopes to find whether the Porsche's huge power advantage is enough to defeat the better grip and aero offered by the nimble racer.
There's no doubt that the Porsche is an utterly fantastic road car. The 911 Turbo looks mean with all of those intakes to suck in cool air, and it backs up the posture with huge amounts of grip available thanks to its all-wheel drive-system. However, at 3,538 pounds, it's a bit of a porker compared to the 1,135-pound Formula 4 car. The open-wheel car boasts just a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder from Ford and a six-speed sequential-manual gearbox, but it has loads of downforce to make up for it.
It shouldn't be a surprise that the formula car wins in the corners. After all, that's what it's made for. So do you think the massive horsepower superiority of the Porsche is enough to even the playing field? Scroll down to watch the video and find out, and even if you're not curious of the winner the 911 does some mean powerslides.
