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 911 Targa 4S special makes us want to go Dutch

Mon, Apr 20 2015

There's a long list of things that make us love the Netherlands, and not all of them involve activities that would be illegal in most of the United States. Like this latest special edition Porsche 911, for example. Unveiled at AutoRAI 2015 – Holland's premier car show that opened last week – the Porsche 911 Targa 4S Exclusive Edition celebrates the 50th anniversary of Zuffenhausen's iconic partial convertible. It's decked out in Gulf blue, but instead of contrasting with bright orange, nearly everything else on this special Elfen is blacked out: The 20-inch Fuchs-style alloys, the throwback quarter-panel racing stripes, the LED headlight frames... everything but the signature Targa roof bar, which keeps its brushed metal finish. The interior is rather more subdued than you'd find on most special editions, with throwback houndstooth fabric seats and silver stitching. Power comes from the 3.8-liter boxer-six driving 400 horses to all four wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Sport Chrono Package Plus, a sports exhaust, adaptive suspension and Bose audio system are all fitted as standard. Options include carbon-ceramic brakes, a seven-speed manual transmission and a 30-horse Powerkit. As the name suggests, though, this is a rather exclusive edition indeed. All fifteen examples will be made available exclusively in the Netherlands, priced from ˆ223,230 with the PDK or ˆ229,500 with the manual. That's more than you'd pay for a 911 Turbo Cabrio in the same country, and works out to more than $240k at today's conversion rates.

Dit model wordt in een oplage van 15 exemplaren door Porsche Exclusive geproduceerd om '50 jaar Targa' te vieren. Alle modellen zijn uitgevoerd in het herkenbare Gulfblauw met accenten in hoogglans zwart en lichtmetalen wielen in het klassieke 'Fuchs-design'. Elke 911 Targa 4S Exclusive Edition wordt geleverd met een fotoboek van de auto en het productieproces. Aansluitend aan de AutoRAI start de levering. De 911 Targa 4S Exclusive Edition is er vanaf ˆ 223.230. De 911 Targa 4S Exclusive Edition is speciaal voor de Nederlandse markt ontwikkeld ter ere van 50 jaar Targa.

Preparing for Le Mans 2014 Porsche remembers 1971 and the 917 [w/video]

Sun, 07 Apr 2013

Porsche has given us another look back at its successes at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This time it's 1971, the year that its 917 set records that haven't all been eclipsed. It's 45-kilogram magnesium tube frame was the lightest, Jackie Oliver set the fastest in-race lap with a time that still stands, and winning drivers Helmut Marko - the same Helmut Marko currently with Infiniti Red Bull Racing - and Gilles Lethem did so many laps that their distance wasn't exceeded until the Audi R15 TDI did it in 2010.
1971 was also the year of the "Pink Pig." With bodywork created by a French aerodynamics firm, the wider, rounder 917 earned the porcine moniker so Porsche painted it pink and labeled it with the cuts you'd get from a pig. Sponsor Martini was so miffed they demanded all Martini branding be removed. No one can remove the thousands of photographs taken of the car ever since. Enjoy that and more in the video below.

Ferrari 458 Speciale vs Porsche 911 GT3 shows what Chris Harris does best

Thu, Nov 27 2014

After a brief trip behind a pay wall, British auto journalist Chris Harris is back posting videos for free online, and shorts like this one are the perfect example of why his return is so welcome. Showing up at the damp Anglesey Circuit on the Welsh coast with the Ferrari 458 Speciale and Porsche 911 GT3, Harris ostensibly aims to find the better model. However, the final result really succeeds in showcasing the fun to be had behind the wheels of both supercars, particularly when initiating huge slides around the track. As Harris presents it, the vehicles get through the circuit in somewhat different ways The Ferrari is brash and "feels alive," as he puts it as it screams around the track. Alternatively, the Porsche is a bit more restrained, while still being able to show some emotion. In the end, it comes down to trying to get a controlled lap around Anglesey from this duo, but it's pretty clear that the times don't tell the whole story. If you're in the mood to watch two of the world's premiere supercars wag their tails in the wet, then this video cannot be missed.
