1964 Porsche 356 SC Cabriolet - 1 Owner My dad served in the USAF in Hamburg, Germany. He bought his first Porsche 356, a super 90 in 1963. One day while traveling along the countryside in Germany a car pulled out in front of him causing a T-bone crash. My father's super 90 was totaled and he was forced to buy another Porsche. At that point the SC Cabriolet had just been offered and he said he really wanted a one because of the 12volt system, more engine horsepower and overall more refined car. At that time in late 64 the SC's on a lot in Germany were sold before they were delivered. My dad patiently waited to find one without any luck. Until one day, he got a call from the local Porsche dealers owner offering to sell him his own dealer demo. My dad jumped on it and purchased this cabriolet July 6th, 1965 (49 years ago). My dad used to race it in Germany as a hobby (view photos). My father gave me this porsche and unfortunately I am selling it to buy a house. It has been a long thought out process and an incredibly difficult decision but I believe it is in my best interest to sell this car and move in a different direction for myself and my future. We have received notes ever since I was a kid asking if we would sell the car, for the very first time it is for sale and will be sold!! The car runs, drives and can be driven in its current state but I would recommend taking the plunge and restoring this piece of history. The original color is Irish Green but was painted Ruby Red in the 80s when my dad wanted a color change Matching Engine and Transmission #'s Engine: 820112 Transmission: 70760 (741/0) The Motor/Transmission and drivetrain were all been rebuilt in the early 2000's and have been driven a limited amount since. Runs and drives and clutch is very sticky and transmission feels good. Interior Black interior - front seats need recovering and rears look good just need a solid cleaning Windshield wipers work, blinkers, tachometer, speedometer, odometer, horn, radio all work. There is a vertical crack in the windshield glass. Carpet is dirty, rough and could use replacement Interior door panels are in great shape, the windows roll up and down easily. Locks lock from inside and outside. Body and Rust Body is in ok shape, the front end has had some work on it and the last body man welded a couple plates on it so you could pull it out and straighten it. There are dents and rust. The rust is on both driver/passenger lower front fender, drivers front floor pan, some misc areas on the floors, front clip by front head lights and misc other spots. For the best results fixing it would be a rotisserie restoration. Underbody has some dents and rust - view photos Top Convertible - needs replacement but the actual frame is in good condition and locks against windshield frame tight Hardtop is included - no rear glass except the rear windshield (new rear glass) Misc Additional parts are included (view photos to see extra parts that are pictured) - spare tire we have and is included included Paperwork I have every record that this car has ever had and the stack is huge! Everything is in chronological order and it was serviced and maintained by some of the greatest shops in the country. Also included is the original black/white Colorado Title from 1965 and a Colorado Bill of Sale. Front Clip The only reason the front clip headlamps, bumper and misc parts have been removed is because my dad almost had a complete restoration started in 2003 but parked it instead in a heated garage due to a passing in the family. It sat in this heated facility for the last 9 years until 2 months ago when I pulled it out and took it to a local specialist to rebuild the carbs, drain the fluids and get it running again. It is running great but needs to be driven to clean out the engine. Each week since I got it back from the shop I have been starting it and driving it around the block but due to lack of headlamps, no current tags I can only drive a limited amount. Extras: Hardtop and new rear glass for hardtop 356 3ring binder (shop manual) Owners manual etc This 356 would be a great candidate for a full restoration, addition to your collection or store it and let it continue to appreciate in value. Overall: This is a beautiful Porsche 356 Classic. It would make the perfect weekend warrior, beach cruiser or addition to your collection. The Porsche is used, needs a restoration and 50 years old. It is hard to capture all the blemishes and areas that need attention but it is a perfect restoration candidate. I am not a Porsche specialist so I may have missed something so be sure to ask all questions you have prior to bidding or winning the 356. The car is being sold as is, where is, without warranty or guarantees. I am not required for your state emission or safety inspections including Colorado. Shipping: If you are out of state and need to have this Jeep shipped, call M&E Auto Transport #606-354-3643. Michael is great to work with and offers competitive pricing, quick pickup and delivery. He helped me ship a few vehicles back to Colorado from other areas in the country. Conclusion: A $1000 non refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of the conclusion of the auction via paypal. All sales are final. The final payment must be received within 7 days of auction end time. Payment options include cash upon pickup, Electronic Bank Transfer or Wire Transfer. I have sold multiple cars on ebay and can provide references if necessary. I reserve the right to remove the auction at anytime as this car is listed for sale locally as well. If you have any questions or would like to know anything more or make an offer feel free to calling or texting. #720-295-3372 |

Porsche slathers Martini livery on 911, Panamera, Macan and Cayenne
Mon, 20 Oct 2014This is how we imagine the conversation went in Porsche's Stuttgart headquarters: "Martini livery. Martini livery all the things." Okay, so maybe not, but that hasn't stopped Porsche from showing off images of its entire lineup bearing the iconic racing livery.
While we aren't sure about the questionably yellow 911 and lime green Macan, the navy blue Cayenne and the white Panamera both look pretty spectacular as they lap about the streets of Sochi, Russia.
As for why the liveried sports cars and crossovers were at the site of the 2014 Winter Olympics, we aren't totally sure. Porsche's Facebook page, where the images first popped up, was really light on details. Whatever the reason, we fully support Porsche doing more with Martini livery. Take a look at the full gallery to see what we mean.
Porsche's baby Panamera delayed until 2019 or later
Tue, 15 Jul 2014If you're enticed by the idea of a Porsche sedan but find the Panamera to be too big, your hopes may have been raised by the development of the so-called Pajun. But don't get those hopes up too much, because the latest word coming in from the Old World has it that the Panamera Junior has been delayed.
The Pajun was (and theoretically still is, despite tardiness) a project to apply to the Panamera the same winning formula that Porsche used to transmute the Cayenne into the smaller Macan. Its size would be closer to the BMW 5 Series and Mercedes E-Class than the larger Panamera, and employ an array of six-cylinder engines.
The smaller five-door was set to be the cornerstone of Porsche Product Strategy 2018, a plan that included several new models to be launched within the next four years. However, reports now indicate that the Volkswagen Group is counting on Porsche to help bolster its profits and is not keen on investing in new products at this time, pushing the Pajun and other projects back until 2019 at the earliest. Although much of the strategy remains undisclosed, it is believed to include (or have included) a sub-Boxster sports car and a supercar to slot in between the 911 and the 918 Spyder. There was also talk of a shooting brake version of the Panamera based on the Sport Turismo concept pictured above. What will become of those projects, however, remains to be seen.
1974 Porsche 914 EV conversion still looks good
Thu, Jan 23 2014Looking through the pages of the EV Album is a great way to learn about the breadth and depth of the electric vehicle community. Branching well beyond the three dozen or so electric vehicles that are currently sold by major automakers in the US, EV Album showcases lots of DIY conversions of all types. A 1995 Fiat Cinquecento? Check. A 1992 Kewet Eljet 2? No problem. The site's old-fashioned looks (it was started in 1997) show just how long people have been passionate about their EVs. Many of the cars are throwbacks to a previous time and we found a prime example of that, a converted 1974 Porsche 914 (EV Album page here) this week. Now powered by a Prestolite MTC4001 Series Wound DC motor and some flooded nickel-cadmium batteries, the 914 has a top speed of 80 miles per hour and a range of 35 miles. But only "if you are taking it easy," of course. The motor has a peak output of 60 horsepower and 25 hp continuous. Converted over 600 hours (!) to electric power at a cost of $10,000, it is now owned by Charlie Garlow of Maryland. The car is on display at the Washington Auto Show this week and serves as a great reminder of what most EV drivers used to have to do to drive emissions free.
