My beautiful Porsche 911 backdated Hotrod. This car has undergone a complete transformation
during a two year labor of love renovation. The goal of the car was to create a lightweight car that was capable of
performance but also looked great and was civil. The car was purchased by me from the previous owner out of
Arizona. The car started out life as a yellow 1976 911S. Before my ownership it was painted a pearl white and
converted to a Steel widebody turbo look car with a 3.2L engine swap from a 1988 Carrera. Overall it was in pretty
good shape but I had a plan to make it what it is now.
The Restoration:
Once I received the car it was completely stripped to the bare chassis. All panels, glass, headliner, sound
deadening, rubber seals, etc were removed. I sent the car to a Porsche specialist, Werks 11, where they completely
stripped all the paint down to bare metal and fit and installed the new Rennspeed Fiberglass hood, fenders, front
and back bumpers, and ducktail. The rear steel flares were left on the car. Werks 11 built and fitted a Center fill
gas tank for a sportier look. They also removed the existing sunroof and surrounding roof panel and bonded in a
strong, lightweight, and very beautiful carbon fiber roof panel made by Helion composites.
Once all the bodywork and Fabrication was completed the car was shipped off to paint where the painter laid down a
very nice paint job done in Porsche non-metallic Slate Grey(6801). The car was then reassembled and all seals and
weather stripping was replaced.
The interior was also backdated using an RS carpet kit, door panels. Amazing custom period seats were made by GTS
Classics, the dash Facia was also backdated using the same material from the seats to bring it all together. A new
custom alcantara style headliner was installed and a MOMO prototipo steering wheel was installed. The dashboard and
other pieces were also reupholstered in black german vinyl. A custom OEM replica rear seat delete was built finish
off the rear and conceal the engine ECU and small Bluetooth component Stereo system. Completely stealth with no
speakers visible. Synch to your handheld and stream your itunes, Pandor etc.
To finish it off we lowered the car, installed new Bilstein coilovers from Rebel Racing, and went with Custom 17”
Fikse Mach V’s wrapped in Continental DW’s. An OEM muffler was modified to resemble and RSR style muffler.
Lastly vinyl graphics were installed (completely removable)
Mechanicals:
Brakes: Carrera brakes in great shape. Stops amazing especially with the lightweight body
Suspension: Oem suspension in front, new Bilstein coilovers from rebel racing in Rear
Chassis: apprx 124K miles
Electrica/Lights: All gauges, lights, electrical work. I actually went through the entire wiring harness and
soldered/heat shrunk every wire that wasn’t securely connected. Car starts every time with no hassle.
Engine/Transmission: 3.2 Carrera engine from an 88’. I was told the engine only had apprx 60K miles on it but
cant confirm. It runs very strong. We removed the Engine and transmission to fix synchros in transmission. It’s
the original 915 unit. 2nd and 3rd gear synchros were replaced and the the rest checked out ok. While the engine
was out it was cleaned up and detailed. The spark plugs, plug wires, distributor cap, rotor, motor mounts, and
starter were replaced. Also did a valve adjustment and replaced the valve cover gaskets. Did an oil change using
Brad Penn and refilled the tranny with Swepco. Replaced all the bushings related to the shifter and readjusted
clutch and shift coupler.
Overall:
The car has been driven maybe 500 miles since the restoration was completed. Its in fantastic, like new shape, with
most of the major components fixed or replaced. The car drives great, sounds great, shifts great, and stops great
and has been extremely reliable. The car is at a stage where it can be enjoyed by the new owner for years to come
with no hassle. On top of that, it looks amazing and gets LOTS of attention. IF you’re not a social person you
may want to avoid this car because people WILL want to talk to you about it.
Please feel free to email me with questions if I missed anything or you want to ask any additional questions.

Our hats are off to Porsche's 2014 911 Turbo Cabriolets
Wed, 20 Nov 2013Porsche has just debuted its two latest decapitated rocket sleds today at the LA Auto Show, the new 911 Turbo Cabriolet and Turbo S Cabriolet, which share their coupe counterparts' 520-horsepower and 560-hp 3.8-liter twin-turbocharged flat-six engines. That kind of power ought separate a lot of hats (and toupees!) from heads.
The rear-engined Porsches put their power down through all four wheels, which allows them to launch from 0-60 in 3.3 seconds or less (the Turbo S Cab takes just 3.1 seconds), and both of them top out at 195 mph.
The 911 Turbo Cabriolet starts at $160,700, while the Turbo S Cabriolet can be had for a grand total of $193,900 (plus $950 for destination). Is the S model's 40 extra horsepower worth $33,200? We're not so sure, but we imagine Porsche won't have any trouble selling it.
Super Bowl LVII car commercial roundup: Watch them all here
Mon, Feb 13 2023Fewer automakers than usual spent money advertising during Super Bowl LVII. In total, there were only five traditional ad spots from three big OEMs. A number of car-adjacent ads aired during the Big Game, too, and we’ll bring you those ads in this roundup alongside the more obvious ones. WeÂ’ve compiled all of the automotive-related commercials for you here in this post so you donÂ’t have to go searching for them elsewhere. Read on below to see what aired as the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Philadelphia Eagles. Ram's Super Bowl spot offers a cure for 'Premature Electrification' This commercial revealed the new electric Ram Rev pickup, and itÂ’s themed like a prescription ad for an antidote to "Premature Electrification.” A concerned narrator in the Ram spot asks if you're afraid that going electric too soon will mean "you might not be able to last as long as you like," and there's a guy on a pier who's going to need some new equipment if he wants to catch fish. We're also told there are "options being designed to extend range in satisfying ways," so if this truck isn't right for you, you have choices. All the commercial's missing is a silly medical marketing name and six seconds of speed-reading gibberish about side effects like intestinal bleeding and death. Which are two more good things. Jeep 4xe Super Bowl commercial highlights modern version of 'Electric Boogie' JeepÂ’s “Electric Boogie” commercial follows the Wrangler 4xe and Grand Cherokee 4xe in a variety of simulated off-road situations. Though fun, the soundtrack is the real star of the show. The songÂ’s original artist, Marcia Griffiths, was joined by Grammy winner Shaggy, Jamila Falak, Amber Lee, and Moyann on the track. The modernized re-recording celebrates 40 years since GriffithsÂ’ original track, and Jeep says the track is available for streaming now. Kia returns to the Super Bowl with the tale of 'Binky Dad' This year, Kia follows the adventure of "Binky Dad" in his quest to fetch his daughter's lost pacifier, which naturally takes him over just about every bit of terrain you might encounter upon leaving the civilized confines of Southern California for the not-so-civilized mountains of ... probably also California. It features the refreshed 2023 Kia Telluride, which probably doesnÂ’t need much advertising to see these days, but Kia went for it with the strong three-row SUV anyway.
2014 Porsche Panamera arrives with new E-Hybrid, long-wheelbase models
Wed, 03 Apr 2013Porsche will officially unveil the refreshed 2014 Panamera at the Shanghai Motor Show later this month, and there's a whole lot in store for the updated model, far beyond the minimal styling tweaks you see here. Sure, there's a new fascia with more prominent LED lighting (including full LED headlamps) and the rump has been tweaked ever so slightly, but the big news for 2014 concerns what's underneath that rakish skin.
First up, Porsche will now offer a Panamera S E-Hybrid model - a plug-in hybrid that builds on the technology first introduced in the Panamera S Hybrid that we tested in 2011. For this new application, a more powerful electric motor and higher-performance battery have been fitted (official specs have not been released just yet), and Porsche says the battery can be recharged in just two and a half hours when the car is plugged in to a 240-volt outlet, and the charging (as well as other vehicle data) can be monitored via a new Porsche Car Connect app available for Android and iOS devices.
The E-Hybrid will have an all-electric driving range of "greater than 20 miles" and will be able to travel at speeds up to 84 miles per hour solely on electric power.
