First Off... This is a original 1986 California 928 4 cam 32 Valve engine car . Purchased from a drug seizure Sherriff Dept auction in 2006 and the reason the interior was removed in the first place ( marijuana smell ). Absolutely no smell any longer.
A fully modified 928 4 cam 5 liter engine car with the rare 5 speed manual transaxle. A $2000 certified NASCAR type cage is installed . Note that the cage extends into the door cavities for the ultimate in side and roll over protection for the driver. There is no interior in this car except for the Kirkey driver seat and the instrument cluster and fuse/relay board. No heater/AC, to shave weight. Pop up headlights and their motors were removed and replaced by fiberglass blank outs ( see note below). Battery box now in passenger seat position but factory box in the rear and it's wiring is all still there. Race box can be removed fairly easily. It is estimated to be 600 lbs lighter than a factory S4. Hollow spoke twist alloys with Porsche cup slicks mounted. The massive black brembo calipers and drilled rotors to slow you from the 180 mph speed are all there. A custom beautiful mandrel bent slip joint fitted dual pipe large diameter exhaust system with dual DTM tips is mounted. Sounds incredible ( can send a short video file with sound of the car running if requested ). Headlight hole fiberglass blank outs included. This is a running driving car but in it's current form is too modified to be street legal ( now that I have headlights for it it can fairly easily be made road legal again ). This model was the worlds fastest production car in the mid eighties. They are dead stable at 150 mph plus. I bought it to race the Silver State Classic open road race in N. Nevada . Now let something like that be your passion. Cheapest way to get into the upper echelon of production road racing. The wing is not some add on kids thing. Built for downforce specifically for this chassis. This car was built January of 1986 with certifications for California with ZERO rust. Just surface rust on the cage from being in my garage and other storage for a while. Slicks are old and would need to be changed. Car runs and drives but needs some minor finishing and trimming ( like painting the cage after race officials looking at the welds ) and installing polycarbonate for the rear windows. Only the OEM windshield is installed. Again.. more weight savings. This is a sunroof car but I'm adding a non sunroof clip ( complete roof with pillars ) in case your sanctioning body doesn't like the hole there. Car in all pictures other than the outside picture after getting a bath is dusty. Just sitting for a while always inside. Fresh fuel added recently after draining old fuel. Original paint can clean up nicely. I have all the required paperwork to legally register this car in any state you wish ( once it's got some lights again ) from the auction. In California I would simply submit the docs and pay the fees to get a title issued again. In other words I have legal ownership that can be transferred to anyone else for this car.
Entire car has been looked over by pro's and there is no evidence of any accident damage. Car Fax supports this. Only the front and rear fascia's have been changed over to the more aero later model types. Car was under dealer lease/maintenance ownership for the first 15 years of it's life.
Engine has been rebuilt by a reputable shop in the Bay Area of California and has 45k miles since being rebuilt. Right rear wheel bearing is worn but entire replacement hub/rotor included with car I recently bought the headlights, the linkages and the motor drive so with very little work this can be made street legal again. Talk about a Autobahn burner.
Engine and trans numbers as follows: Engine M28/43 Trans 28/05-119
This makes the transmission one out of an earlier car. Probably for the better gear ratios for road racing.
On the odd chance that a guy had a Honda 20 or 25 HP Four Stroke outboard engine with electric start and power trim that runs well I would entertain a $2500 credit against the purchase of this car.
I will deliver to your choice of local shipper or we can arrange me delivering the car up to 1000 miles for $2.00 per mile prepaid for purchase and delivery of course. See my feedback. I'm honest and will answer any questions you have. Feel free to ask for more pictures.
I will not ship this car overseas. Payment in U.S. Funds and only first party transactions. Deposit of $500 can be made via Paypal . Balance due in certified funds before car will be released. Contact me for further questions. |

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.

Ford Mustang Shelby GT350R named Road & Track Performance Car of the Year
Mon, Nov 9 2015With a 526-horsepower, 5.2-liter V8 that roars to 8,250 rpm, it's really hard to consider the 2016 Ford Shelby Mustang GT350R an underdog in any fight. However, the Shelby held the lowest as-tested price and was only middle of the pack in terms of power in Road & Track's 2016 Performance Car of the Year challenge. The 'Stang's numbers clearly didn't tell the whole story about the potent coupe because Ford's muscle car grabbed the title in this year's test. A model needs to be new or significantly updated to be eligible for the honor, and R&T found an impressive slate of eight candidates this year. The challengers included the Bentley Continental GT3-R, Cadillac ATS-V Coupe, Chevrolet Corvette Z06, Dodge Viper ACR, Mercedes-AMG GT S, and Porsche Cayman GT4. The Ferrari 488 GTB was the most expensive of the bunch with an as-tested price of $347,942, which is five times more than the Shelby. Once the group was together, R&T hustled them over curving roads and on the National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park. There was a lot to love about the Shelby, even in this impressive crew. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," editor-in-chief Larry Webster said in the announcement of the results. The GT350R joins some great company. Past winners include the Porsche 911 GT3 last year and the Corvette in 2013. For some fantastic photography and the complete appraisal of these performance machines check out R&T's website for the full story.

The article appears in the December/January issue, on newsstands November 17, and on RoadandTrack.com. "With a flat-plane crank and Sport Cup 2 tires, the GT350R is a Mustang turned up to 11," said Larry Webster, editor-in-chief of Road & Track. "Not only does the car have soul and harness so much firepower with such ease, but the real achievement here is that it's so approachable. It's a car you can't help but love." The Mustang Shelby GT350R was the winner by a runaway vote.
Jay Leno plugs himself into Porsche's 918 Spyder
Mon, 24 Mar 2014As one of the greatest sports car manufacturers of all time, when Porsche puts out a new, ultra-exclusive hypercar, enthusiasts tend to stand up and take note. Jay Leno is no exception, and now, the funnyman is finally getting his time with awesome 918 Spyder.
With his 1963 Porsche 356 and his 2005 Carrera GT flanking a Liquid Silver 918, Leno takes us through the basics of this plug-in hybrid roadster alongside Daniel Eastman of Porsche North America. Following the chat, Leno and Eastman take the German-plated car through the streets of California, testing it in a number of modes and even going on a short, all-electric freeway cruise.
If you're looking to learn more about the 918, or to just here its glorious gas engine at work, you'll want to scroll down and take a look at the latest episode of Jay Leno's Garage.
