1972 Porsche 914 1.7 Light Ivory over Black Appearance Group Fuel Injected Justin 503-969-5127 Hello out
there in eBay land and welcome to my auction.
For those of you that follow my auctions you know that I have more than
a few fantastic 914 in the last few years.
This one is no exception and my personal favorite. This is a 1972 1.7 liter car with low actual
miles and a perfectly documented history.
An Oregon 3 owner car including myself, I found this car as a total
survivor. Zero rust and all original. Hell hole and battery tray intact. Wearing all of its original paint too. The underside of this Porsche is as dry as a
bone. The lines of undercoating you see
on the bottom side is factory. It has
never been touched since. It does indeed come with the hard Targa top and it is also in excellent shape. Unfortunately,
the paint was pretty tired and as hard as I tried to save it and keep it
original I finally decided that the car was nice enough to deserve a real
complete paint job. This is no easy task
if you want the job to turn out right.
The car has to be stripped of all of its chrome and bumpers and parts so
that the paint can be applied without tape lines and overspray. It is really an undertaking. This is before you get into the actual
prepping and painting of the car. We
used the exact proper color mix from the Porsche code. (Light Ivory L80E) We also used 2 coats of base color plus a
clear coat. It is a fantastic paint
job. The car was incredibly straight to
begin with so very little filler was needed.
I have included before, during and after pictures as well in my
listing. Please call if you have
questions about the paint, painter, or the process. The secret
to a good restoration, or in this case a mini restoration, is to start with a solid
car. Not only was this car solid to
begin with it was, is, and has always been a great running and driving
car. It is tuned and tight. It starts instantly every time without
issue. The gearbox is as good as any I
have driven. The clutch is strong. Suspension, brakes, steering, all great. I have a folder on the car FILLED with
thousands of dollars’ worth of receipts from years of care. The interior
is all original and still very nice.
Almost perfect! No holes cut in
the door panels factory original radio too.
Yes a standard crack in the dash pad. The tires
are new. The wheels are Mahle and very
nice. All the gages and lights work
properly. Wipers, gas gage, blinkers,
radio, heat.. Everything. There is a
custom performance exhaust on the car and it is really nice, but I am including
the original for the purists as well. I
hope the picture demonstrate how nice this car is. It is as nice as these come and was a lot of
work to complete. The winner of this
auction will be happy with this car. Bid
with confidence. This Scout II has a ton of vintage appeal and
will surely be one to hold on to for future appreciation. It is over 40 years old so if you are not
used to a vehicle this old please call me and let me help you make an informed

Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
Scroll down to see how it all plays out on video.
Another naked Porsche 911 GT3 RS caught in Stuttgart parking garage
Tue, Jan 6 2015With its reveal not expected until the Geneva Motor Show in April, we have to wonder why there'd be a rode-hard-put-away-wet 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS sitting out in the open, completely uncovered. It's one thing to be caught out on the street or in triplicate at a Swedish gas station, but it's another thing to be on what looks like daily driving duty – there's a child's seat in the passenger's throne. Instagram user Johan9ff snagged it, and in response to a query in German as to how, he answered in German (per Google Translate) that he found it in a parking garage in a fitness center in the Stuttgart suburb of Killesberg. Based on its muddy front lip and bug-spattered paint job, the coupe has been naked out on the street and traveling quickly. Out of its camouflage it looks just like we've been led to expect based on the patent photos and the recent winter spy shots, but this time we get an up-close view of the vents over the front wheels. We have one word to say about them: filthy. And if you're wondering about those turbo-like vents on the rear haunches, no, this isn't a GT2 – Porsche has said there won't be a GT2, the current race-certified GT3 RSR has those vents (occasionally found on the previous version as well), and the GT3 RS has already been leaked in scale-model form. This is it. Based on comments left on Porsche forums, production will be limited by the number of orders – the new engine won't meet European regulations coming into force, so it won't be manufactured after this year. Deliveries are said to start at the beginning of summer; those who bought the 918 Spyder will get first dibs, and you can be certain there won't be enough of these to go around. Speaking of that engine, it's said to be good for somewhere between 510 to 525 horsepower, a PDK transmission getting power to staggered wheels, 20-inchers in front, 21-inchers in the back. Johan9ff has slowly been posting Instagram photos of the beast, we're hoping he got at least one of the interior. Those seats looks mega. Bring on Geneva.

Motor Trend hits Laguna Seca with Ferrari F12, Chevy Corvette, Porsche 911
Thu, 26 Sep 2013According to the crew at Motor Trend, we should think of the video below "as an addendum to Best Driver's Car," a test the magazine put together that elevated the 2013 Porsche 911 Carrera 4S above all others in the category of driving joy. It seems the brand-new 2014 Chevy Corvette Stingray wasn't able to take part in the magazine's official test, and neither was the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta.
And so Motor Trend did the only logical thing: It procured both the 'Vette and Prancing Horse as soon as it could, and put them both on track with the Driver's Car-winning 911. Of course, these cars don't actually compete against each other - the Ferrari offers up 731 horsepower and wears an asking price of $434,144 as tested, which means you could buy four loaded Corvettes for the price of one F12, and still have money left for a garage to store them in - but that's not the point of this particular test.
The point of this test isn't to listen to the beautiful sounds coming from the Porsche's flat-six-cylinder, the Corvette's pushrod V8 or the Ferrari's luscious V12, either, but the video below is worth watching for those three reasons alone. You know what to do.
