Here is a nicely freshened up and sorted out Vintage Speedsters Brand 1956 Porsche 356 Speedster, with a very reasonable reserve.   The car has kmh speedo, and it shows 19,450km, which translates to 12,140mph, and I have left it that way purely for the look.  Everything on the car works great,  including all the lights and accessories. The car sat in a building for awhile, and during the freshen up the Motor/Transmission was completely gone through about 2,000 miles ago, and at the same time the trans syncros and all the shifter bushings and motor mounts were changed, so this thing Shifts with ease with no trying to find gears.  It has had the brakes gone through, and is a Front Disc Brake car, so stopping is not an issue. The Canvas Convertible top is only about 2 weeks old, so there isnt any fading or shrinking, so everything on the car looks very fresh. The paint is about 6 months old, so there isnt any rock chips or door chips in the paint, so it looks pretty fresh also.  As you can see in the supplied YouTube video below, it is very hard to video this car, because it is to clean and bright, but I will try to make another video one morning or evening when the sun is lower.

 

Since it has warmed up in our area, I have been driving this car as a daily driver, and it is a very solid car.  I live in a rural area, so from town to town is normally a 50 mile round trip, and the car cruises great down the interstate at speed.  The Steering and Suspension is very tight, and the body is very solid with no squeeks or rattle, and I guess that is due to the reputable quality of the build brand.  It has a nice CD/Stereo and is a very comfortable ride, so it has been a pleasure to drive.  I have had alot of cars over the years, along with several various kit cars, and I have to admit these 356 Kits are very well sorted out, so you dont feel like you are driving some sort of piece together piece of crap like the old Bradley's and others.. LOL  The car is currently registered and titled as a 1969 VW, so all the paperwork in current and in order.

 

Here is the YouTube video Link I have now, and I will try to get another one done and posted, possibly this evening when the sun goes down a bit..  This car is Clean and Bright, so I will have to catch right before dusk, in order for my Camera to not pick up all the glare.

This car is ready to go, and is ready to enjoy.  I have a very low reserve on this car, and it thousands below what I have seen other lesser cars sell for on here, so it should sell.. I also have it advertised locally, so the auction can end at anytime.. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions, or need any additional information or pictures, because I want to represent this car as honestly as possible.  I personally drive the car daily, so I can tell you exactly what I know about this car.  I also have a very reputable and reasonable auto transporter I use, who is normally about half what Ebay Transporters Charge, and I will be happy to share that information with serious buyers, so you can get a shipping quote that will allow you to final total this sales transaction.

Porsche Macan caught completely uncovered

Wed, 31 Jul 2013

Porsche is preparing to launch its sub-Cayenne CUV, with a suspected debut at the 2013 Los Angeles International Auto Show, which means we're right about at the point where undisguised models start scampering around the cities and towns of Germany. Our spy photographers snagged just such a model, with only the headlights and taillights concealed by camouflage (no, those comically large lamps aren't a production item).
The undisguised car looks like a tiny Cayenne. Not really surprising, we know, but it's impressive to see how the Cayenne's styling works with the smaller proportions of the Macan. It looks squat, athletic and poised, like it's a small, "sporty" crossover we'd actually want to drive. Both the Macan and the Macan Turbo are shown, with the more powerful model sporting a set of quad exhausts.
The only big questions now concern the shape of the lights and the interior. From the photos, we can see a rough outline of the headlights, although the taillights are more difficult to discern. The interior remains a mystery.

MotorWeek proves '90s were awesome with Supra, Stealth, RX-7, Corvette, 968, 300ZX comparo

Thu, 24 Jul 2014

Oh, the heady days of 1993, back when the Clinton Presidency was just getting underway, and it seemed like every hot new rock band was coming out of Seattle. Sports cars in the US had finally shaken off the shackles that slowed them during the '70s and '80s, and you could buy any number of legitimately quick vehicles again. MotorWeek recently went digging into its archives to find this six-model test from 1993 showing off some of the best semi-affordable performance coupes that money could buy at the time, and it's priceless.
Featuring the 1994 model year Toyota Supra in twin-turbo guise and MY 1993 versions of the Porsche 968, Nissan 300ZX TT, Mazda RX-7, Dodge Stealth R/T Turbo and Chevrolet Corvette LT-1, MotorWeek definitely covered all of the bases. One thing that might surprise younger readers is these cars' performance. The video only provides 0-60 acceleration times, but several of these vehicles would still be considered pretty potent today - over 20 years since going on sale. The Supra is especially impressive, hitting 60 miles per hour in just 5 seconds. Even today, that's nothing to sneeze at.
Given their performance potential and still-attractive looks, it's amazing that some of these coupes are old enough to drink now. The progress of interior design and safety equipment in the intervening years is pretty shocking, though. In most of these models, having two airbags is touted as a big deal. Scroll down to watch a Throwback Thursday blast from the past about some of the '90s best sports cars.

Porsche 912 is no longer the brand's black sheep

Fri, Dec 12 2014

If you haven't looked recently, prices for many vintage Porsche 911s are now well out of the realm for mortal men to purchase. However, the growing values have their advantages because they mean that the 912 is being better accepted as a member of the Porsche family. In a new video, Petrolicious talks to one owner about his mildly modified example while the coupe zips through the backroads and city streets of France. Launched around the time of the 911, the 912 shared its body but retained the four-cylinder engine from the 356, rather than the new six. The older mill helped make the 912 cheaper to buy, but it also tarnished the coupe in the eyes of Porsche fans for years. Much like the four-cylinder 914 and 924, the 912 just seemed like a black sheep in the shadow of its more powerful brother. Following two massive changes to his life, Julien Borne bought a 1967 912 as a project to get back on the road. After hours of welding, wrenching and beating out panels by hand in his grandparents' neglected country house, he crafted this gorgeous example. Check out the video to hear his story, as Petrolicious shows why the model's stigma is wearing off.
