This is a late 1959 356, T-2, built 7.59 according to the Kardex, which I have a copy, and was delivered to Hoffman NY. The original color is Meissenblau with Brown interior. 59 356 A T-2 s are a great car to restore, as they have the better ZF steering box, later roller bearing axle stubbs, and better syncro transmission. As a 59, this car is eligible for the VSCCA and many other vintage race groups, here and abroad. The car is very complete with a running, 1 year later 1600 Normal engine. The engine compartment has original intact noise insulation. The drivers doors and deck match the body, I did not take off the passenger panel, but does have the blue paint underneath. The hood is un-kinked and un-numbered. The gauges have correct date stamps. The rare exhaust thru bumperettes for rear bumper are with it. All glass is intact, and seems correct, I took pictures of the glass logos. The passenger quarter glass is plexi. The wheels are very nice chrome repros, and the tires are new 165 x 15. Included with the car are new floors, longitudinals, seat and floor board brackets. The original steering wheel, and rare horn ring and button are there, but the horn ring has a crack, and the button is cracked. I have documents dating back to 1981 when it had 87,000 miles on it. I have some receipt from 80's and 90's and an owners manual. One of the keys are stamped with the original factory key number on Kardex K 149. Meissen Blue is now a highly sought after color. This car has original deco trim, with extruded ends, verses the repros that are pinched and welded. It does have the mirror and sun visors, and one "wedge" front directional stand. The rear license light has the Hella logo, and the rear tear drop trim has the part numbers in them. I encourage inspection, the car is in White House NJ. If sold overseas towing to the port is about 50 miles. I will answer questions and send pictures up till end of action, but not after. I can be reached at tmiller@gardenstategraphics.com I have the car for sale for a friend locally, so I reserve the right to end auction early.

Porsche planning back-to-basics 911 GT

Fri, Jun 5 2015

With the latest 911 GT3 and GT3 RS track toys, Porsche clearly put the emphasis on outright performance. After all, if they were all about a puristic driving experience, they'd probably have manual transmissions instead of DCTs, right? Well that's just one point where the Porsche GT division's next project is tipped to depart. According to Autocar, Zuffenhausen's skunkworks are preparing a new addition to the 911 range that will put all the emphasis on the raw driving experience, even at the expense of lap times. The yet-to-be-named model is expected to do away with the second clutch in favor of one you can operate yourself, but that's not all. We're told to expect skinnier tires to make it easier to hold at the limits of adhesion, the narrowed track from the base Carrera, and the absence of large wings and other aerodynamic features. The inspiration apparently comes less from the GT3 than from the new Cayman GT4. Look for the new back-to-basics Elfen to arrive sometime next year, after the rest of the 911 range gets updated with turbo engines. Chances look good, though, that this particular model will stick with the atmospheric boxer six. Related Video:

2017 Porsche Macan receives delayed CARB certification

Tue, Apr 12 2016

Customers waiting for delivery of their 2017 Porsche Macans will soon receive their vehicles after several weeks of delays. The California Air Resources Board certified the performance crossover for sale Monday. Several outlets reported the certification had been held up in the aftermath of parent company Volkswagen's diesel woes, as regulators are now making much more thorough inspections of the vehicles. Without certification, Porsche could not deliver those vehicles to customers in 13 states that abide by CARB certification, including California, New York, Pennsylvania, and Florida, several of the largest markets for luxury automobiles in America. Not only did dealers need to stop sale of Macans they had on their lots, but an unknown number could not be released from port. Porsche Cars North America (PCNA) imports its vehicles through ports in Jacksonville, FL, Davisville, RI, Houston, TX, and San Diego, CA. A spokesman for Porsche told Autoblog the issue has been resolved, and that the Macans received certification Monday. "Shipping has already been initialized," spokesperson David Burkhalter wrote. Pressed for details on the circumstances behind the delay, he said the process was simply "now the normal business procedure for certification." The Macan is a pivotal model for Porsche, particularly in the US market, which accounts for 22 percent of its worldwide sales. Last year, the Macan was the second-best selling Porsche model in America. Its 13,533 units sold trailed only the 16,473 Cayennes purchased by US buyers. Diesel models of the Cayenne manufactured between 2013 and 2016 contained the defeat devices at the center of Volkswagen's emissions cheating, according to the Environmental Protection Agency. The company offers the Macan with a range of turbocharged six-cylinder engines ranging in output from 340 to 400 horsepower. While a diesel version is not offered in the United States, Porsche has now started importing a less powerful, but more accessible (and slightly more fuel-efficient) version with a 2.0-liter turbo four.

Porsche Macan Turbo vs Cayman GTS in track battle

Fri, 19 Sep 2014

"Well this is stupid." On the surface, that was our reaction to this video, as well. Why would you compare the hottest Porsche Cayman with a crossover of any kind, even if it is the 400-horsepower Macan Turbo?
We're guessing because it'd be bloody good fun, as evidenced Auto Express's latest track battle. To be fair, there is some interesting stuff here. The two do have a similar starting price, separated by less than $3,000 here in the US market. And, factoring in the Macan's hefty horsepower and torque advantages - 60 horsepower and 126 pound-feet - does make for a slightly interesting comparison.
We won't spoil the verdict, so check out the full video from Auto Express, and then let us know what you think in Comments.
