1979 Porsche 924 Base Coupe 2-door 2.0l on 2040-cars
Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, United States
Vehicle History: I purchased this car in 2011 repaired and partially restored it. The car had been sitting in a driveway for several years. I am the third owner of this vehicle. As far as I know the original owner had the car from new until around 2003. The second owner purchased the vehicle and had issues passing inspection because at the time it was not old enough to be registered as a classic. Some time around 2004 the car was parked and sat until I purchased it. The miles are approximate, the odometer is stuck at 35k. I believe the milage on this vehicle is accurate because the pervious owner had maintenance records and inspection documents from 2003-2004 with milage recorded. Vehicle Condition: The car is over all a very nice example of the year are model. Engine: Runs well and is complete. I changed fluids, some belts, hoses, fuel filters, plugs and had porsche mechanic replace warm up regulator so the car will start on even the coldest morning. Transmission: It has a 5 speed manual trans which I believe was a new option in 1979 and an improvement over the original 4 speed. The car does shift in and out of all the gears. The clutch is original, but in very good working order. Restoration that has been completed: Exterior: The car had minor surface rust on the roof and hood as well as some paint cracking on the passenger side. I sanded the roof, hood, and passenger side down to metal primed and repainted original color dark gray. The driver side of the car is still the original paint it is not perfect but it does match the new paint pretty nicely. The car looks nice and can be driven as is. Interior: I replaced the carpet through out the vehicle as it was very worn and badly faded. I recovered the steering wheel with a black leather kit. I Installed a dash cover as the original dash board was cracked. The original radio was broken so I replaced it with a Alpine CD player. The car has new battery, a set of four new Michelin tires, and a new seal around the sunroof. I did the work on the car with my dad and now would like to sell it to purchase a new and more reliable vehicle for daily use. I haven't driven the car much It is currently registered in PA as an Antique. I did drive the car from New Jersey to PA about 100 miles and had no issues. The car is fun to drive and pretty good on gas. You could spend more time, and relatively little effort to get the car perfect, or you could drive it as is. I live in PA. I am open for anyone local to stop by and see the car in person. For out of state buyers, you are responsible for your own transportation costs involved in getting the vehicle. I reserve the right to end the sale early and sell privately as I do have the car listed else where. I am happy to answer any questions. |

Porsche ready to pick itself up after Le Mans failure
Mon, 23 Jun 2014It's safe to say that things for Porsche didn't go quite as well at Le Mans this year as it might have hoped. After a sixteen-year gap, the winningest manufacturer in endurance racing history returned to the Circuit de la Sarthe this year hoping maybe not for outright victory in its first time back, but definitely a strong finish on which it could build on for next year. All the while it undoubtedly hoped its 911s would hold their own in the GT classes.
Unfortunately for Porsche, neither happened. After racing around the clock, and despite actually leading the festivities for some time, the best its 919 Hybrid could manage was an eleventh-place finish, lagging lamentably behind not only the other LMP1s (like the race-winning Audi) but also a handful of LMP2s. Meanwhile the LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am titles went to the factory-backed teams of its arch-rivals Ferrari and Aston Martin, respectively.
Not a stellar result, in other words, but Porsche is taking it all in stride - accepting that it has a ways to go while congratulating its vanquishing rivals in the video below. It's good sportsmanship if we've ever seen it. Next year's race starts now.
Sunday Drive: An automotive flavor for every taste
Sun, Feb 25 2018Last week was flush with interesting new vehicle debuts, led by the new 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. This crossover is entering straight into the heart of one of the world's most competitive automotive segments, and it's doing so with a fresh sense of style and a brace of new technologies. Our readers are clearly intrigued – the Santa Fe was the biggest news story of the last week on these online pages. It's fitting that a crossover generated a lot more interest than a traditional wagon, though we don't really have to be happy about it. Still, the completely new, fully redesigned Volvo V60 is worth taking another look at. First of all, it's pretty, in a traditionally Scandinavian way. Second, it's quick, with a 0-60 time of as little as 4.8 seconds. And finally, it's practical, with all kinds of room for cargo without the dynamic penalties of an unnecessary lift kit. Moving on from new vehicle debuts, we took another long look at the Honda Ridgeline. It's definitely a non-conformist pickup truck, based not on a body-on-frame platform but on a more carlike unibody design. That means it can't tow as much as some other trucks, but it also means the Ridgeline drives better than any of its more truckish competitors. It's the Swiss army knife of pickup trucks. Rounding out our coverage from last week are three sets of spy photos, each showing the interior of a hotly anticipated new model. One is a truck, one is a crossover, and the last is a sportscar. All of them are worth another look. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the most important news in the automotive world. 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe unveiled 2019 Volvo V60 | Sleek, swift new twist on the Swedish wagon 2018 Honda Ridgeline | Pocketknife pickup is up for anything 2019 GMC Sierra interior looks just like the Silverado's 2019 Cadillac XT4 interior has actual buttons, no more touch-sensitive panel 2020 Porsche 911 992 spy shots show interior and manual transmission Cadillac GMC Honda Hyundai Porsche Volvo Truck Crossover Wagon Luxury Performance Sedan hyundai santa fe
