For Sale is a very nice Porsche 914 with 86,578 original miles. The engine is a 1.7 with original fuel injection system. I replaced the mechanical points with electronic and the car starts great and runs great for a 40 year old car. I have not professionally tuned the engine since I got the car as the porsche mechanic told me not to touch the injection system until it needs it. The Porsce has been restored by the previous owner with lots of new parts, seals, and bare metal paint job. The paint job has 2 chips and one small crack. Body is strraight and I could find only a small area on the right rear fender where some repair work had been done (see pictures). I replaced the Master Brake Cylinder with a new Porsche 911, replaced the brake fluid resevior, and replaced (1) fuel injector and some of the gas lines.
What it needs: 1. The fog lights did not work when I got the car and have not investigated the problem. 2. The heater control unit front face plate decal is worn. I have a nice used one for a replacement. 3. The right headlight motor is intermittent and only raise the headlite automatically about 50% of the time. I bought a replacement headlight motor that goes with the car.
Mechanically the car has lots of power and shifts smoothly through all the gears. Interior is in new condition and in great shape.
There is no warranty given or implied. I will gladly take the vehicle to some place locally to have it inspected at the buyers expense before the auction ends.
The bidding has a start price of $ 5,000.00/ The buyer is reponsible for all shipping costs.
Please email or call Mark at 406-245-6360 with any questions. Thanks for looking.

1950s car ads are timeless
Sat, Aug 8 2015Usually around the Super Bowl a few great car commercials show up, but for the most part auto ads today pale in comparison to the '1950s and '60s. In an era with a truly viable magazine industry, automakers would take out gorgeous full-page spreads to get the word out about their wares. It was also a time when imports were just hitting the US, and there was a boom in sports cars. Car and Driver has gone for a dig into its advertising archives from when the book was known as Sports Cars Illustrated for a truly great viewing experience. You can imagine a young Don Draper mulling over the copy for these ads, but some of it is laughably quaint today. For example, there's a great image of a driver whipping an Austin-Healey 100 around a track. The italicized red text proudly proclaims, "From 0 to 60 MPH in 10.5 seconds." One of the beautiful parts about these advertisements is that you seldom see photos of the cars. Instead, there are often detailed drawings that slightly distort the vehicles' lines. With this approach, the Porsche 356 ends up looking far more curvaceous than in real life. Plus, the front end of the Chrysler 300 looks large enough to land a helicopter on. The whole thing is worth scrolling through. There are some fascinating glimpses into auto history like an ad for Abarth exhausts before the brand was just known for tuning Fiats.

Then we go into what we've been driving - David just finished his time in the Porsche Panamera Turbo and Mike tried the GMC Acadia.

Mercedes S63 AMG Coupe vs Porsche Panamera Turbo S in unusual lux showdown
Fri, 07 Nov 2014We'll admit it, we're really looking forward to more time with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class Coupe. Compared to other high-dollar luxury coupes - we're looking at you Bentley Continental GT - it's more stylish, easily more affordable, and since it's a Mercedes, lacks the sense of fragility that comes with a more exotic name plate.
Auto Express has taken a whack at reviewing the new two-door S-Class, and for some reason, the British mag is comparing it with a Porsche Panamera. Now, while comparing the looks of an S-Class Coupe and a Panamera is a bit like holding a beauty contest between Kate Upton and Medusa, this isn't as bizarre a pair as you might think, particularly when you opt for the high-dollar S63 AMG Coupe and the Panamera Turbo S.
The two offer similar power outputs from their force-induced V8s - 577 horsepower in the Benz and 570 horsepower in the Porsche - and are even similar in terms of interior and exterior dimensions. The S-Class actually has an extra inch between the axles and is 1.2 inches longer overall (it's also about 300 pounds heavier). In the cabin, the S-Class also has a tiny bit more rear legroom, with 33.4 inches to the Panamera's 33.3.
