1967 Porsche 912 Coupe. Same Family Since New.calif. Car.super Clean. on 2040-cars
Newbury Park, California, United States
I am finally ready to part with my 1967 Porsche 912 coupe.This car was purchased by my Grandfather new in '67 from Ogner Porsche in Burbank and has always been a So Cal car. I purchased it from my father almost 30 years ago and then it got put on the back burner once my family started growing. Over the last several years I finally was able to complete it to what it is now.
The overall condition of the car is very nice, very clean and well detailed. This is a black plate car with a clean title. It is a 5 gauge, 4 speed car with almost 87000 original miles. As for what has been done to the car here is a brief description. The car has been repainted the original Sand Beige color a few years ago using OEM Glasurit paint. The interior has been redone in original style upholstery(not leather), new headliner and original Perlon carpet. The cars original rubber floor mats are still there and are in excellent condition. The only thing not working in the interior is the clock, and the original radio is there but is not operable since I removed the dash speaker when the dash was recovered(who needs a radio when your driving this car). All the body rubbers and seals have been replaced except for the doorhandle seals, mirror seal and two rubbers on the deck lid which are in excellent shape. Other than those all seals are new. The pedal bushings and shifter bushing are new. I made aluminum foot boards to replace the plywood ones. All the suspension has been gone through. New lower ball joints,steering ends,bump steer kit,Bilstein strut inserts,Koni's in the rear,adjustable spring plates and new spring plate bushings. The car has been lowered and looks and handles very nice. All the calipers have been rebuilt and work beautifully. It has all stainless braided brake lines, new master cylinder and reservoir and light switch. It sports real Fuchs with new Goodyear Eagle RS-A 195/60 15 tires. All the trim and wheels have been blacked out which gives the car a more modern outlaw look and it goes really well with the cars color. All the electrical works and it has a new fuel sender,voltage regulator,starter and I installed an electric rotary fuel pump which is hidden in the smugglers box. The original fuel pump is still in place but I took out the internals so it keeps the original look and doesn't leave a big empty space.
The motor was rebuilt with a big bore kit. I have just installed new Webers and a Bursch exhaust. It has a new clutch and throw out bearing. I replaced the headlight lenses with fluted lenses rather than the plain stock one purely for aesthetics. It has the original jack and tool kit in its original roll. It has the original owners manual in its pouch,the original tire pressure gauge and touch up bottle from when my Grandfather owned it. I even have the original window sticker and paperwork from when it was purchased along with the radio and antenna paperwork. It apparently was an accessory. I am including most of the original parts with the car because I feel they should stay with the car. This includes the solex carbs and original air cleaners and K&N filters for the solex's,headlight lenses, the original chrome wheels and hubcaps(wheels are all date matched),spring plates and some other misc. parts.
As for what the car needs or has wrong with it. The hood struts are new but still cant hold up the hood, there is no windshield washer pump(never there as long as i can remember) but has all the other parts. One of the heater cables is broken. There is a couple of touch up spots from assembly(nothing major). And since the Webers are new and I am running them straight out of the box they could probably use some fiddling. The floors are rust free but have a couple indents where a jack was used and those are right in the center of the floor but purely cosmetic. This car is being sold with no warranty either expressed or implied.
I know someone is going to be very happy with this car and enjoy it for many years. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. If you are near Ventura County CA please feel free to inspect the car. All shipping will be the responsibility of the purchaser but I will assist in in any way I can on my end. A $1000 deposit is required at the end of the auction. Thank You and enjoy.

Porsche completes production of 918 Spyder
Fri, Jun 19 2015Porsche is closing another chapter in its history as production of the 918 Spyder has officially come to an end. The only remaining question is: what comes next? The 918 was the latest in a long line of flagship supercars from the German automaker, starting with the 904 Carrera GTS, continuing on through the 959, 911 GT1, and Carrera GT. Each was a technological game-changer for Porsche, just as the 918 Spyder will surely be remembered. With the hybrid roadster now zipping off into the annals of history, all eyes will be fixed on Zuffenhausen to see what it does next. And though it may not be much to go on, we've already begun seeing some hints at what that could be. Last week Porsche released a solitary teaser image showing its next-generation sports car, covered and parked alongside the Le Mans-winning 919 Hybrid LMP1. Just what's under the cover, Porsche isn't saying, and didn't respond to our repeated inquiries for comment. However the signs point towards a mid-engined supercar – not unlikely to pack a hybrid powertain once again – positioned closer to the likes of McLaren 650S and Ferrari 488 GTB than the outgoing 918 Spyder, which faced off against the McLaren P1 and LaFerrari. If that turns out to be the direction Porsche takes with its upcoming new supercar, as has long been anticipated, it would hardly be unprovoked. McLaren recently launched the 570S as part of its new Sport Series to take on the Porsche 911 Turbo, and Ferrari is once again rumored to be pursuing the same with a new Dino. While the specifics may remain cloudy for the time being, what is crystal clear is that things are about to get very interesting in the battle between Porsche and its rivals.

Today, the chequered flag marked the finish: after 21 months of production time, the final Porsche 918 Spyder came off the line in Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen according to schedule. But the legacy of this technology pioneer will reach far beyond its production time. Future generations of sports cars will benefit directly from innovations of the 918 Spyder. The 918 Spyder was systematically developed to be a performance hybrid with plug-in technology. The hybrid super sports concept car made its debut at the 2010 Geneva International Motor Show where it met with overwhelming approval.
Ring Taxi BMW M3 chases an Aventador SV and Cayman GT4
Thu, Apr 7 2016On paper, a BMW M3 that's loaded with three passengers probably shouldn't have a chance at keeping up around a track with a Porsche Cayman GT4 and a Lamborghini Aventador LP 750-4 Superveloce. In the real world, driver skill and track knowledge can make all the difference, though. And when the M3 is a Nurburgring Taxi with a driver that knows the course incredibly well, we end up getting a fantastic lap like this one. The 'Ring Taxi driver starts by teasing his passengers that they'll see whether the Lambo is fast. Before the two of them get on track, the GT4 cuts in to join the party. What follows is a fascinating lap of the Nordschleife. It's impressive how the BMW driver's skill allows him to keep up with the two other cars and blow past tons of other traffic. During faster sections, the Porsche and Aventador start to pull away, but as soon as the course gets curvy again, the M3 is right back in the action. As the group pulls back into the parking lot, even the Ring Taxi driver sounds impressed with his performance. See the impressive show in the video above. Related Video:
2015 Porsche Cayenne Turbo S gets faster, more powerful [w/video]
Tue, Jan 13 2015Porsche just isn't letting development of the Cayenne Turbo S cease. The 2014 edition was unveiled at last year's Detroit Auto Show boasting 550 horsepower from the brand's 4.8-liter twin-turbo V8, and it could hit 60 miles per hour in 4.3 seconds to a 175 mph top speed. Those seemed like very impressive specs for an SUV, but only a year later, the German brand has revealed an even more powerful take on its flagship trim in the model lineup. The 2015 Cayenne Turbo S now makes 562 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque from the same V8. The key to seeing such a significant boost in grunt so quickly is that the two turbos are now integral and are located directly in the exhaust manifolds. Porsche's eight-speed Tiptronic automatic gearbox still routes power to all four wheels. All of the tweaks let the SUV hit 60 miles per hour in 3.8 seconds and a 176 mph to speed. Stopping should come quite rapidly too thanks to 16.5-inch diameter ceramic brake discs up front with 10-piston calipers. Of course, the Cayenne needs to be able to put that added grunt to good use. Porsche claims that the model can lap the Nurburgring Nordschleife in 7:59.74. Comparatively, the 550-hp Land Rover Range Rover Sport SVR previously touted its SUV 'Ring lap record with a circuit in 8:14 in 2014. The Turbo S doesn't try hard to show off its added prowess, though. Up front, the bumper and undersides of the door mirrors are done in high-gloss black paint. Meanwhile, the roof spoiler and wheel arches are body color. The 21-inch wheels with black edges provide a little flash, and LED headlights are standard. The interior should be comfy too with black and creme leather and carbon fiber accents. The whole package rings up for $157,300, plus $995 destination and delivery, and US deliveries start in late April. Check it out in Porsche's video below. This content is hosted by a third party.

The new Cayenne Turbo S The top athlete among SUVs At the 2015 North American International Auto Show in Detroit, Porsche is also introducing the new Cayenne Turbo S – the top model of the sporty SUV model series. Its re-engineered 4.8-liter V8 biturbo engine now develops 570 hp (419 kW) and 800 Nm (590 ft lb) of torque. A chassis that is tuned for maximum driving dynamics and packs a wide range of control systems also makes the Cayenne Turbo S a genuine top athlete.
