Porsche 356b Cabriolet on 2040-cars
|
Original California Black Plate, 1963 Porsche 356B Super Cabriolet This Porsche 356 has been completely restored. The car is a stunning investment grade vehicle that is appreciating at a fast rate. I bought this California car from the 2nd owner, had have driven it for years and recently restored it (original owner only owned the car for 9 months in 1963/64). The engine has 25k miles on it since we rebuilt it. Not only is the car gorgeous, it's a superbly running and handling ride. The car has been professionally restored top to bottom:
The car bottom is original with the original undercoat in many areas (we have not recoated it so you can see it); Rockers & jack area are clean, battery box was replaced a decade ago and has no rust. The steering wheel and horn have not been replaced or redone because they look cool worn a bit though the entire dash has been restored. Engine p*703519*: Porsche 356 Super though we upped the cylinders to 1740 cc's, and powered painted all sheet metal and finished off with the original water transfer decals. The engine has 25k miles on it since its being rebuilt starts first time, and runs like a top! Trans: 4 speed original Paint : Silver Porsche code, two stage with the best clear coat on the market. Interior: Black interior upholstery with charcoal square weave German carpet. Soft top: Black with haring bone headliner. Wheels: Chrome rims with Porsche hub caps (not original) with steal belted tires in good condition. I have owned a number of 356's over the years and I restore them to look great but be reliable classic you can actually drive and have fun with! Each has sold quickly because of the quality we do AutoMagic Network.com. All of my cars are meant to be driven and used though there are meticulously done. We own a body shop in Hermosa Beach Ca. and we also own a detail shop so this car has been well taken care of. What it needs, if you want: The letter "S" (for Super) could be put on the car (we have it in the glove box). Steering box is a little sticky and could be rebuilt or replaced ( I have replacement seals). Few chrome bolts on the sets brackets should be replaced because the original chrome tops are worn and the replacements have flat heads ( I don't like that). A piece of dust got is in the paint on the drives side quarter panel which should be color sanded or blended ( Porsche Silver). Interior light and cigarette lighter needs to be hooked up. Bonuses: The car has a complete tool kit with mostly original tools; Porsche name plate under hood has been re-plated in nickel and looks amazing; 356 shop manual, Owners manual/book, Extra electrical/mechanical parts, Original tube radio with original speaker covers and new speakers are included. Complete file on the car with receipts from the last decade. This is a stunning investment-grade example of a rare and desirable 356 model.

Porsche celebrates 5M Facebook fans with crowdsourced one-off 911
Mon, 05 Aug 2013Porsche's Facebook fan base appears to be accelerating as quickly as the cars it builds. The German automaker has just unveiled a special 911 Carrera 4S designed with crowdsourced input as a way to thank its five million Facebook fans.
The 911 features special Aquablaumetallic paint from Porsche Exclusive, contrasting 20-inch white Carrera S wheels and pinstriping, along with an aero package including a fixed rear wing. Inside, there are unique backlit sill plates and the obligatory dashboard engraving that says "Personally Built by 5 Million Porsche Fans."
As a way to turn at least one virtual thumbs up into its more meaningful physical-world equivalent, Porsche is holding a contest to win the chance to drive the car at Britain's Silverstone racetrack - and bring a friend - and nine lucky runners-up will win 1:43-scale models of the 911.

Watch Larry Kosilla resurrect the finish of this barn-find 1966 Porsche 912
Thu, 25 Jul 2013Larry Kosilla, the founder of the Ammo NYC line of car cleaning products, has his own show YouTube's Drive network - we saw his work before when he gave a Ferrari 288 GTO a two-day detailing job. On this episode, Kosilla gets called in to do his best with a 1966 Porsche 912, a car that was last registered in 1990 and recently found in a barn in Connecticut.
Among the expected dirt and cobwebs, the Irish Green Porsche is also covered what is assumed to be cat fur and "waste." The car is in such delicate condition, however, that Kosilla can't wash it for fear of getting more water in it than on it, so he has to steam and wipe the entire thing down before he begins the paint correction process. In addition to the thorough knowledge of his work and his ability to explain it simply, the episode is captioned with further information one of Porsche's popular but less regarded models, and how Kosilla does what he does.
You'll find a compelling 29 minute masterclass in the video below.
Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most
Wed, 16 Jul 2014Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.
