Numbers Matching

VIN # 463155

Engine # 756054

Transmission # 165170

Paint Code # 68-6607-G

Porsche has confirmed that all numbers match and that it came with black leather and wood steering wheel.

I have a Certificate of Authenticity on order from Porsche ( case 35297356) that I will send within  48 hours of receiving.

I will be happy to answer any questions or concerns by phone or email. My number is 907-328-9195 and please leave your name and number if I do not answer.

I believe this to be a Canadian model due to it having the Kilometer Speedometer and the Celsius Temp Gauge, looking up the transmission numbers I found them to be for US/CAN.  Porsche could not confirm this at the time I spoke to them.

I purchased the car from the second owner who has owned it since the  early eighties and who has enjoyed it until now. He said it had been repainted the original sand beige color before he purchased it and had the aftermarket wheels when he bought it.This had been his summer toy for the past 30+ years which he has kept in a garage or storage during the winters and enjoyed during the summer months.

This is a true survivor that has been driven and appreciated through the years. There have been few modifications and this is an excellent candidate for a full restoration or as a daily driver for years to come.

I have cleaned the carbs, adjusted the valves, and performed a tune up.

Car runs and drives well.

I have only test driven and taken this car on a few drives. This car is an absolute joy to drive. It shifts well, goes through the gears as it should, accelerates nicely, and brakes well for a car it's age. You do have to pump the brakes one time to get to them to grab well.

I have taken the best pictures I can to show the condition and finish of this survivor.

Exterior

The body is in real nice shape with minimal rust on the floor pan and under the battery. The rear looks to have had a minor collision with something (the rear bumpers are slightly tweaked).

The rear quarter panels, rocker panels and fenders are all solid and rust free.

There are chips and some peeling in the paint but it looks good and shines up well for it's age. There are signs of repaint from years ago that include tape marks on some of the rubber trim and places where there is peeling in the paint.

There is pitting on most of the chrome but it is all there and in good shape.

The glass is all In good shape for being original. There are some scratches on the windshield but no cracks

Most of the rubber trim is in need of replacement.

Interior

 The seats have been replaced with what looks to be VW seats. They are mounted on homemade brackets. The rear seats are original and in good shape. The driver door panel is rough and shows it's age. The passenger rear window is missing a couple of screws for the latch.

The original rubber floor mats are all there and in good condition with one tear on the passenger side

The gauges are all there but not all working.

The Kilometer Speedometer works but the odometer does not. I did not try the trip meter.

The tachometer works as it should.

The gas and temp gauges work.

The oil, and generator lights work.

The Celsius temp gauge is there but the thermo coupling is wrapped up on the back and the light is not hooked up.

The clock is there but I did not try to get it to work.

The dash pad is in need of replacement.

Our love of SUVs is killing people in the streets

Tue, Jul 17 2018

Americans are fond of supersized fast-food meals and colossal convenience-store fountain drinks, even though they're clearly bad for our health and U.S. adults keep getting fatter. We also like large vehicles, and our love affair with SUVs is killing people in the streets. According to a recent investigation by the Detroit Free Press/USA Today, the increase in SUV sales over the past several years coincides with a sharp rise in pedestrian deaths in the U.S. — up 46 percent since 2009, with nearly 6,000 people killed in 2016 alone. With SUV sales surpassing sedans in 2014 and pickups and SUVs currently accounting for 60 percent of new vehicle sales, it's no wonder Ford announced in April plans to cease U.S. sales of almost all passenger cars. And this followed Fiat Chrysler's move to virtually an all-truck, -SUV and -crossover lineup. While the Freep/USA Today investigation found that the simultaneous surge in SUV sales and pedestrian deaths comes down to vehicle size, it also points to a lack of action on the part of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), even though it knew of the dangers SUVs pose to pedestrians. Also blamed are automakers dragging their feet on implementing active safety features. Using federal accident data, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) determined that there was an 81 percent increase in single-vehicle pedestrian fatalities involving SUVs between 2009 and 2016. Freep/USA Today's analysis of the same data by counting vehicles that struck and killed pedestrians instead of the number of people killed showed a 69 percent increase in SUV involvement. As far back as 2001, researchers at Rowan University forecasted a rise in pedestrian deaths as Americans began switching to SUVs. "In the United States, passenger vehicles are shifting from a fleet populated primarily by cars to a fleet dominated by light trucks and vans," the researchers wrote, with light trucks comprising SUVs.

Porsche 918 Spyder gets tiny recall for rear control arms

Tue, 09 Sep 2014

As the recent US recall of a single Koenigsegg Agera shows, even low-production supercars aren't immune from safety campaigns. Now, there's another example that even the fastest cars can have their faults. The Porsche 918 Spyder is a pretty fantastic vehicle for its ability to mix hybrid fuel economy and incredible amounts of power, but Porsche has a problem on a few units of its halo model.
According to the recall document from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Porsche needs to inspect and possibly repair five 918s in the US because the rear axle control arms may break, which could cause a loss of control while driving. In the full defect notice, Porsche says that it first noticed the problem on June 26 when the parts failed during "heavy duty durability testing (extreme race conditions)" at the Nardo test track in Italy. It transported the components back to the company's lab for inspection, and on July 18 it issued a stop-sale to inspect the suspension parts on the supercar. The automaker also contacted owners by phone to warn them not to use the car on track, until repaired.
The affected 918s will be inspected, and if the cars have the bad parts, the control arms are will be replaced. Obviously, this will be done at no cost to owners. According to a Porsche spokesperson speaking to Autoblog, in addition to the five US cars potentially affected, there were 45 worldwide. All of the cars have now been checked.
