For sale is an All-Original 1975 Porsche 914 1.8 Liter California Car in Forest Green with Tan Vinyl Interior.  The car was sold in California and spent it's life from 1975 to 2004 in Desert south of San Francisco. It has the little EGR Light in Dashboard.  I have a copy of the California Title.  I also have the pair of original Blue & Yellow California License Plates that stay with the car for the life of the car while it is in California.  I purchased in 2004 and it has been garage kept in Pennsylvania.


The car is essentially corrosion free.  The paint and Interior are all original and as such I have not touched either at all.  It has all it's scratches, dings, dents, and tears from its years of use as a daily driver in California.. Someone installed an aftermarket car stereo but I have the Original AM/FM Factory Radio.  They installed speakers in the door panels but this is easily repaired.

I have gone through the car mechanically and rebuilt the entire rear undercarriage. Rear CV Joints/ New CV Joint Boots, Rear Hub Bearings (replacing these is a job hence most 914s have worn out rear hub bearings and make alot of noise at speed).  The shocks are Bilsteins, the new Coil springs are the stock units from George Hussey at 914 Atlanta.  New Flexible Brake Lines, Rotors, Rebuilt Calipers , Pads.

New Bursch Exhaust System. (as close to stock as available), new Bosch Starter, Stainless Steel Heat Exchangers, New Clutch Cable, New Throttle Cable.  Brand New Michelins on the original Mahle Gas Burner Mags.

New Master Cylinder., New Gas Pedal NOS from 914 Atlanta. Lots of NOS Porsche replacement parts in this car !

The Engine has been gone through. New Push Rod Tubes, Valve Job.  The L-Jetronic Fuel Injection system has been completely gone through by a german car fuel injection professional with new Bosch Fuel Injectors installed, Numerous new Bosch L-jet Fuel Injection parts throughout. ( I have a whole box of NOS Bosch Service items for the Bosch L-jetronic including injectors , sensors, air regulator, etc not included in the sale of this car but available for sale).  The engine starts easily and idles nicely even in the cold. I had the car out two weeks ago for the photos and it ran beautifully.

There is Zero Corrosion in Battery Tray area.  I have removed lead acid battery and installed a GEL Cell unit.

Up front I changed out wheel bearings and brake pads.  The rotors were excellent so I lturned them and left them in place.  Had I kept the car another season I was planning on finishing off the undercarriage with two front Bilstein shocks, 2 Porsche lower Balljoints, a Turbo-TireRod End Kit..  These are the only items that I can see being done to completely finish off the undercarriage rebuild.  Otherwise this car runs like it was when it was new.  The Rack and Pinion unit is very tight.  Believe me, if it needed it I would have put one in.  Underneith the car has  everything is as it was from the factory... no missing deflectors, heat shields, access covers... it's all Correct.

Last Summer I completely rebuilt the steering column.  Porsche 914 people will know about this.  old 914s tend to have sloppy steering wheels due to wear of the column bearings.  I removed the wheel and installed NOS Porsche Turn signal Lever switch, High Beam Dimmer switch, the White Plastic Ignition switch, and New Column Bearings.... The steering wheel is factory tight with all new switches.  See the Photos

If you're looking for an A1 all original Car all complete and ready to enjoy driving this is your car.  If you gotta have a 1973-74 2.0 liter car than you're gonna pay twice as much for a car in this condition.

I've restored 6 of these cars over the past 20 years or so.  If you have any questions please dont hesitate to email.

2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]

Thu, 22 May 2014

You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.

Driving the Panamera and Mike's Rant | Autoblog Podcast #487

Thu, Sep 8 2016

This week we cover some recent news like the upcoming Land Rover Discovery, updates to FCA's large car platform (including the Challenger), and talk about water injection. 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. And then Mike (who is still uncomfortable writing in the third person) goes on a rant about why automakers shouldn't specify which cars are aimed at women. The rundown is below.

Modded budget Mazda Miata takes on new Porsche Boxster in more challenges

Tue, 23 Sep 2014

Earlier this month, our friends across the pond at Auto Express released the first in a two-video series that would see them try and build up a second-generation Mazda MX-5 Miata that could best a standard Porsche Boxster around the track. While that first video detailed the mods to the MX-5 - a supercharger, some suspension upgrades and a new set of super-sticky rubber being chief among them - and set baseline lap times for the stock car, today, we have the results of the 5,000-pound ($8,200) upgrade job.
Of course, we aren't going to spoil those for you. You'll need to watch the full video, which recaps the upgrades before digging into a comparison of both straight-line-speed differences between the 2.7-liter Porsche Boxster and blown Miata, as well as their behavior and lap times on the track.
Take a look and let us know what you think in Comments.
