This is a 1968 Porsche 912. I consider this car a project at this time. It has some rust areas but in my opinion is worth saving. It is a late 1968 model and is a long wheelbase car. The car is fairly complete minus the engine which was replaced by a VW based type 3 1600 engine with dual single barrel solex carburetors. I do not have the original engine. This car was a driver 3 years ago and I did drive it but has sat outside since then. I have not attempted to drive the car and it would need to be trailered. And again I feel it is a project car.

Lets start with the good. Clear Florida title. Car has original steel wheels and hub caps, including spare, and jack. Original interior in decent shape, houndstooth insert seats that have a few small tears in them. Seat belts and some of its carpet (unfortunately not all), 5 gauge dash. It looks as though the dash was taken off, leather removed and covered with a painted fiberglass?, not sure but it looks good. All glass is original minus the windshield. All mirrors, trim, badge, emblems are all present. Wheel wells are pretty clean front and rear. Chrome is good on the car. Original 5 speed transmission that shifts smoothly. Doors and door bottoms are in good shape, body is straight. Hood and deck lid are in good shape. Car was originally silver and still shows areas of silver but also areas of primer.

Now for the bad. It is missing its original engine. The VW type 3 engine was placed in and tin work done to seal the engine bay. No alterations to the engine bay were done. It does have some typical rust issues. Patch work on the floorpans have been done. Rear corner lowers of The front bumper is rusted beyond repair and will need to be replaced. The front apron is slightly rusted along with the a small section of the battery tray but the front fenders are in good shape and front trunk area is clean and rust free. It has a nice smugglers box area. Some rust under the right rear seat area.

I had the notion in me to part the car as I have several projects/ running cars but I feel that the car is in good enough shape to have something done with it besides parting it.

I reserve the right to stop the auction at anytime. If you are local and would like to come and see the car, I am more than happy to help any way that I can. I will not toe the car somewhere to have it looked at though. It is a no reserve auction.

Long hood early cars are getting harder to find complete. Does this one need some love? Of coarse it does, thats the fun in it, right?

I accept CASH or US POSTAL MONEY ORDERS.

Porsche purists, look away: This 911 is powered by Hyundai

Wed, Aug 10 2016

Bisimoto appears to be putting together a Hyundai V6-powered Porsche 911. While the experiment reminds us of a project from earlier this year, in which Ryan Tuerck dropped a Ferrari V8 into Toyota GT86, this one's a bit different. Bisimoto has a history of creating some truly insane automobiles, usually with Veyron-menacing power levels. In fact, the tuning company built multiple 1,000 horsepower machines, including a 1976 Porsche 911 and a 2013 Hyundai Genesis Coupe, not to mention a few other Hyundais with oodles of power. So it seems Bisimoto has decided to combine the company's experience with both marque's into one machine with this 1977 Porsche 911. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. The company revealed the intended engine for the car today, next to the disassembled tail end of the 911. No specific details about the engine were given, but a "hyundaiusa" tag, some helpful hints from Instagram commenters and some diligent Google image searching by Autoblog staff members seem to show that this is a Hyundai Lambda series V6. It also appears to be a version from a car with a transverse layout, which would make it easier to fit in the 911's traditional engine location. What we do know is that the build will be completed in time for the SEMA show, and we look forward to seeing the finished Franken-Porsche. The same probably can't be said for Porsche purists though.

2015 Porsche 911 GTS widens your rear-engined choices

Fri, Nov 21 2014

"Porsche needs to offer more versions of the 911" is not a phrase you'll hear uttered often. Not with 15 versions already in the catalog. But with the opening of this year's LA Auto Show, Porsche has introduced four more to bring the total up to nineteen variants. And more are no doubt on the way. What you're looking at is the new Porsche 911 GTS, which has grown from one model in the previous generation to four. Buyers will be able to choose between rear- or all-wheel drive and between coupe and cabriolet body-styles, but either way they'll be looking at a 3.8-liter flat six with 430 horsepower. That slots it in between the base Carrera and the GT3, but unlike the hardcore latter, it can be had with choice of manual or dual-clutch transmission – bringing the available configurations of 911 GTS up to eight. Spec the DCT and you'll be reaching 60 in as little as 3.8 seconds, but the pleasure won't come cheap: prices range from $114,200 for the rear-drive coupe to $132,800 for the all-wheel-drive cabrio, plus another $995 for delivery. But for that much scratch you also get the Powerkit, Sport Chrono package, wider track, lower suspension, Xenon headlamps, Alcantara trim, 20-inch alloys and more all thrown in as standard.

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
