1996 Porsche 912 great shape good runner 912 could be converted to 911 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3hCoHfv0ZM for a video. http://s1229.photobucket.com/user/saltzchuck/library/1966%20Porsche%20912 for many more photos (might need to enter “saltzchuck” to view album). History
I know of is the car came to Oregon from California 15 to 20 years ago.
Was pulled behind an RV for a few years so it has wiring to plug into a trailer
socket on the back of the towing vehicle. Body work and paint had been done prior to coming to Oregon, this included replacing the right rear quarter panel where you can see from the photos the red is ever so slightly more pale. A couple small body patches were done more recently. Engine
is a later model Volkswagon 1600 cc engine based per engine number AE219021. Car VIN is 454414.
Drives good, smokes a little when first started after sitting then cleans up. I had the car inspected when buying it and they found that the engine compression was tested when I got it. Cylinders 1, 2, 3,
4 were 105, 110, 70, 70 cold respectively; and 140, 140, 110, 110 hot. The shop diagnosis was
cylinders may have been shimmed incorrectly. They also found that under the front where the steering mechanism connects they said that the rust should be addressed before driving the car hard, so I've driving it around but not hard cornering. I took photos from the front, under the front, to show this rust. Good things: Floor panels are solid. Fun to drive. Shifts well. 4 wheel disc brakes work well, 50% pads all around, based on shop inspection report. Spare tire is chrome plated steel. Lifting jack. Turn signals, head lights (one high beam out) work. Glass is in great shape (SEKURIT-F windows in all except driver’s window which is a SEKIRIT-1 with a heart shaped symbol. Windshield has no letters or symbols. Wind shield has a very small chip in it, not very noticeable). Tires matching and in good shape with at least 50% tread inches of tread. Original owners manual that is pretty wasted. Original set of keys. Door locks work with key. Heater works. Carpets are in good shape. Emergency brake works. Release mechanisms for the front boot, engine compartment and fuel filler lids all work well. Doors open and close properly. Door windows roll up and down properly. Rear windows swing out and in, and latch properly. Most window rubber is in good condition, some cracking. Blaupunkt radio with 2 AM, 1 SW, and 2 FM buttons. Glove box is excellent. Seatbelts. Clear Oregon title in my name. Not so good things: Engine smokes a little when first started and then cleans up. Rust can be seen in the photos at corner of windows and in bumpers, some of the paint has small bubbles.Front boot hood does not stay up when opened, needs at least one piston replaced. Right rear quarter panel was replaced some years ago and paint is slightly oxidized. Engine compartment is missing some of the fire wall insulation due to the replacement of the right rear quarter. Hood emblem was removed and is in a box, see photos. Wheels are pitted aluminum but cool looking. Dash padding over speaker has been damaged possibly by mice, see photos. Locking portion of the ignition switch is missing, I start it with a screw driver, see the little stubby screwdriver laying on the open ashtray in one photo. Driver’s seat has torn threads, other seats pretty nice.Buyer is responsible for shipping or pick up. $500 non-refundable deposit due within 48 hours of close of auction via PayPal or cash.

2022 Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance Mega Gallery | The show in pictures
Mon, May 23 2022COMO, Italy — Held annually, the Villa d'Este Concours d'Elegance is, in many ways, Europe's version of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance. It takes place in a beautiful location, and it brings together an impressive selection of rare and valuable cars. It's a real treat for the eyes, the ears, and, if you're into champagne, the palate. The 2022 edition of the show was no exception: About 50 cars were shipped to Lake Como from over a dozen countries, and it wasn't just the usual suspects. Sure, there were a lot of pre-war cars (including a couple of one-off models), but some of the icons that younger enthusiasts grew up with (like the Lamborghini Countach) were present as well. This year's event was split into eight categories: The Art Deco Era of Motor Car Design, The Supercharged Mercedes-Benz, How Grand Entrances Were Once Made, Eight Decades of Ferrari Represented in Eight Icons, "Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday," BMW's M Cars and Their Ancestors, Pioneers That Chased the Magic 300 KPH, And a design award for concept and prototypes. The jury gave the coveted "best of show" award to a 1937 Bugatti 57 S owned by Andrew Picker of Monaco, while the aforementioned classes were won by, respectively: The Bugatti 57 S, shown below, A 1936 Mercedes-Benz 540K Cabriolet, A 1956 Chrysler Boano Coupe Speciale, A 1966 Ferrari 356 P Berlinetta Speciale Tre Posti, A 1961 Porsche 356 B Carrera Abarth GTL, A 1972 BMW 3.0 CSL, A 1989 Porsche 959 Sport, And the Bugatti Bolide concept unveiled in 2020. Winning at Villa d'Este is a big deal: The cars are judged by a panel of highly experienced judges. No one gave me a scoring sheet, presumably out of fear that I'd award points to the late-model Fiat 600 lurking in the parking lot, but several cars that didn't win an award caught my eye. One is a 1934 Bugatti Type 59 Sports, a grand-prix racer that was once owned by King Leopold III of Belgium and that has never been restored — its patina is inimitable. Another is a 1961 BMW 700 RS. One of two built (the other is in the BMW collection), it's a tiny, ultra-light roadster related to the 700 and powered by a 697-cubic-centimeter air-cooled flat-twin tuned to develop 70 horsepower. It won several hill-climb events during the 1960s, and it's one of the rarest cars ever to wear a BMW roundel. Aston Martin's freshly-restored 1979 Bulldog concept was cool to see as well; check out the cassette player integrated into the headliner!
6 car mashups that God never intended
Sat, May 17 2014In the 2000s, the musical mashup genre saw a peak of popularity with releases like The Grey Album from Danger Mouse that mixed The Beatles and Jay-Z. UK artist James Pursey from Carwow decided to take the same concept of shoehorning two disparate things together but applied the concept to cars. Your opinion on the results will vary with your sense of humor. These creations are either some funny pieces of abstract art or absolute monstrosities that prove good design should be left alone. Likely the best of the bunch is the Lambotomic (pictured above), which combines a Lamborghini Miura and an Ariel Atom. Granted, the Ariel is little more than a skeleton to begin with, and the outcome looks like a slightly stretched Atom with the new nose and tail from one of the most beautiful vehicles ever. This could actually work. Though, not all of the mashups are quite so pleasant. The Porschiac WW RS (pictured right) is absolutely disgusting. It combines a Pontiac Aztek, which isn't a beauty queen to start with, and a Porsche 911 GT3 RS. Obviously, the 911 is an iconic shape in autonobolia, but that can't save it from the horror of the Aztek. Pursey fits the its nose, wheel, wing, roll cage and stripes onto the Pontiac. The outcome: A design that will show up in your nightmares. Check out the gallery for the rest of the mashups, including the Humi (a Humvee and a Mini), Aston Smartin (Aston Martin and Smart), Rangerini (Range Rover and Lamborghini Aventador) and the Mazdafenda (Mazda MX-5 Miata and Land Rover Defender). They might not all be beautiful (or even pretty), but it's fun to imagine these oddball creations actually driving down the road.
