1980 Porsche 928 running driving project car. Speedometer in kilometers 167,000 and all gauges labeled in german. Very cool. It has the engine that's much more powerful than the US model commonly seen. The 300 horse is actually hard to find nowadays it seems. The car fires right up, doesn't smoke, runs well too. I drove it 2 1/2 hours straight with no overheating or engine/trans problems. I don't think the heater heats. Drivers side door panel is off but I have most of it. Rear hatch interior panels are gone because the guy was planning on racing it but never got that far.  I have one of the rear seats and I believe half of the other one. Needs a drivers window switch. Motor works but switched recently stopped. May be a fuse. Drivers door handle is off but included. I think the brakes need a check up but they do work and it does drive. The car needs new plug wires also. Like I said it DOES run strong. I'm not one for beating on cars but couldn't resist a little acceleration action on the freeway ramp on my 2 1/2 hr drive. It was like a rocket on wheels. I think it could use a tuneup and general maintenance but man-o-man it has some serious power. 


The car is sitting in my driveway which is not flat. It needs to be leveled and that is why the car seems to be sitting a bit odd. 

This is an Arizona car also. Solid. Needs a muffler. It's loud. There is a crack in the windshield also.


Wheels shown are not included. I have a standard set of porsche 928 rims/tires that will go with it.  It looks like the rear quarters were altered slightly for bigger rear tires. I think it looks better than the stock wheel wells. The rear lip was moved up about an inch or so. They kept the original contours and lip but removed about an inch above the lip. Improved the shape greatly IMO. It's ready for some track tires or wide rims if you like. It looks like the car may have been hit in the far left corner at one time. Seems like the rear quarter has been straightened. It looks great going down the road. Paint is a ten footer but again it looks pretty sharp going down the road. I know there is a paint run under pass side mirror. It is missing the driver side 2 driving lights. The headlights won't go down and I don't know why but peeked at the relay board and realized the headlight motor relay was not there. I suspect the previous owner used the relay for something else perhaps. Front spoiler is missing mostly. Looks like they hit a curb. Rear spoiler needs to be bolted down tighter than it is. Hood catch needs to be looked at. It latches on the first notch but not second. Front seats need recovering. I have a really nice set of front power seats and rear seats from another 928 that have been recovered that I'd consider selling. 

Overall this is a very cool project 928. Also it is the desirable NON-sunroof car. Factory color was dark green, oak green I think. Needs a dash cover and pod cover like most of them do. Would make a killer race track car. Sold as-is.  Also I ship cars for a living and can get it delivered to you.  

reserve is set at $1500

Some added info:

Yes, the car is an S model and it has the m28/12 drivetrain. I rechecked again today, cleaned the block vin off and that IS what it is. The car has a euro pod but no third light in rear bumper. Not sure why but that's how it is. 

Drivers front corner is NOT wrecked, it looks kinda weird in the first photo but wasn't wrecked. The drivers side fog/driving lights and bezel are missing because the guy took them out when he was trying to get headlights to open and close, lost the parts thereby leaving them off. 

The white stuff in some of the pics is wax that needs to be cleaned off. 

I noticed a few pieces of window trim are loose, the rear quarter windows don't have the aluminum trim installed. Never got them. Still looks good. I think the paint could be wetsanded and buffed out nicely with some touchup. Looks like a couple of runs. 

Over spray on rear bumper thingees and on drivers front driving lights. 

Drivers door needs adjusting to close tight and outer handle is off. I have it. Also interior handles are both NEW.  

Sold as-is where is. Clean title NOT salvage either.

Porsche Museum highlights history of the 911 RSR

Sat, 12 Jan 2013

Porsche has amassed quite an impressive trophy case in just about every racing series it has ever entered, and one of its most dominant machines has to be the 911 RSR from the 1970s. Taking part in various GT-class competitions, the 911 RSR managed to take home three international and seven German victories in 1973, its very first year of competition.
Not one to downplay its racing successes, Porsche has released an informative video detailing the 911 RSR's impressive heritage. The 1973 RSR model owned by the Porsche Museum is detailed beautifully on video, and we have to say it looks absolutely stunning in its vintage Martini Racing livery.
Have a look at the video below for some historic racing action, along with static shots of one of our favorite Porsche models ever created.

eGarage video features Helmuth Bott's personal Porsche 959 prototype

Fri, 12 Apr 2013

"We thought we were going to build a super-911," said Peter Schutz, former CEO of Porsche AG of the development of the Porsche 959. That was before it started getting expensive. At that point, Helmuth Bott, Porsche R&D director got frightened. Costs ballooned because of the all-wheel drive, sequential turbocharging and other technology Porsche had never even thought about when it set out to build a 911 to compete in Group B. Schutz continued, "The amount of resources we were committing got totally out of hand." Instead of pulling the plug, Bott doubled down and drew on the strength of his brilliant team to build a car whose impact is still echoing aross the industry.
"It's probably one of our most prized possessions" says Don Leatherwood, Director of the Brumos collection where Dr. Bott's personal prototype resides, and where Frazer Spowart went to see the car and create a video for eGarage. Check out the sights and sounds of the 959 before it was the 959, and get personal takes on the car from Hurley Haywood, Peter Schutz and Don Leatherwood. Keep reading to see the video.
