1966 Porsche 912. Immaculate condition. Only 61k miles. I am only the third owner. The original owner had it garaged for over 20 years. The second owner did most of the restoration and improvements, and I have owned it for the past 13 years. It has always been garaged and covered. The body is in perfect shape. Absolutely no rust, dents, or major dings. The paint is in beautiful condition (the 2nd owner had it repainted).

The interior is also in beautiful condition. The carpet, upholstery, and headliner, were all replaced and are in great condition. The seats are high backs from a 1970s 911, but were re-upholstered to match. I added a Sony 50w x 4 detachable face cd deck with 4 Infinity speakers. It sounds great. I also added a Clifford alarm. All gauges are in working order (although I think the speedometer is a little fast and not sure how totally accurate the odometer is/was). The weather-striping was replaced and is also in excellent condition. All windows, wind-wings, door handles, seat adjustments, lamps, lights, etc. are all in good working order.

The engine is solid and strong. The 2nd owner added the dual weber carbs and the MSD electronic ignition. It is an original 5 speed, and the clutch and transmission are in good order and have been recently maintained. The brakes, shocks, ball-joints, and suspension have also been recently maintained. I have also added a trickle charger for the battery, because unfortunately, i haven't been driving it enough (hence the sale). All work during my past 13 years of ownership have been handled by Dieters in San Diego. They are the best in town (www.dieters.com). I have a lot of the documentation and records even dating back to the original owner in the 1960's, including the original Owner's Manual.

It 's not perfect, but all-in-all, it's in amazing shape for a 48 year-old car. Literally, every time I drive it, I get compliments, thumbs-ups, smiles, and people coming over to look and ask questions. It's really a great car.

I am very sorry to see it go, but a change in family life dynamics means that it has to go. Please e-mail me directly at 1966porsche912@gmail.com to see more pictures and videos, or come by in person to visit.

Please see attached terms and conditions. Thanks.

Magnus Walker turbocharges his love for the Porsche 911

Thu, 31 Oct 2013

He's had his fill of early, long-hood Porsche 911s - he owns at least one from each model year, from 1964 to 1973 - so Magnus Walker, a fanatic of the Stuttgart, Germany-based automaker, recently set his sights on the early Porsche 930, as documented by this XCAR video called 'Turbo Fever.' Let us translate: pretty soon Walker will own all of the earliest, non-intercooled 911 Turbos - at least one from each model year, starting at 1975 and ending at 1977 (though the 1975 911 Turbo Carrera never officially was imported to the US by Porsche, so it'll be tougher to find one Stateside).
Any Porsche enthusiast can tell you why they love their car, and it often comes down to the small details that differentiate one model year from another. One of many examples is the mid-'80s 928. They look similar, but the basic difference between a 1984 Porsche 928 S and a 1985 928 S (US-spec) is two camshafts and 54 horsepower, though each car's V8 has its own pros and cons. We'll let Magnus Walker tell you all about the 930 and what makes the first three years special, as he's becoming quite the expert on early, air-cooled 911s. When the nearly 15-minute mini-documentary was filmed, which you can view below, he already had added four early 930s to his collection!

Petrolicious studies the purity of a Porsche 911 2.7 RS

Thu, 17 Oct 2013

Water-cooled Porsches are superior to the old, air-cooled models. This really isn't up for debate, despite the mob of Porsche purists, with pitchforks and torches in hand, currently descending on the Autoblog offices. Water-cooled models are more powerful and easier to live with, two factors that make modern Porsches just so darn amazing.
And while we won't hear arguments on anything we've written above, we will say that the old air-cooled models, while not superior, are just, somehow, better. They sound better - a lot better. They're simple, elemental and wildly entertaining things, that just beg for more and more. They rev in a way that forces drivers to work to unlock their power, rather than just push their right foot down. Part of the appeal of air-cooled Porsches, in addition to what we just listed, are the gorgeous cars they're slotted into, like the subject of the latest video from Petrolicious.
Starring a 1973 Porsche 911 Carrera 2.7 RS, this video is a bit shorter than recent ones, but it's no less exciting. This 911, complete with it's sweet-sounding exhaust is the kind of simple, entertaining thing we can watch over and over. Scroll down for the full video.

All the crazy stuff we saw at McCall's Motorworks Revival

Thu, Aug 18 2016

Every year, Gordon McCall puts on a lavish event packed with rare cars and planes (and the type of people that can afford rare cars and planes). And every year, more ridiculous stuff shows up. It's the good kind of machine overload. It's likely the only place in the world where you'll see a line of BMW 3.0s next to some Paganis next to a Porsche 911 by Singer Design next to a Ferrari salt racer next to a custom Olds Riviera next to the latest from Koenigsegg next to he coolest stuff Shelby ever made next to a hangar filled with McLarens, including a few P1 GTRs. And then all of that is surrounded by private jets, fighters, and planes that could have flown in directly from WWII. In a word, it's insane. Walk through the gallery above to get a taste for what was there this year for the event's 25th anniversary.
