Porsche 928 Scca, Silver State Classic Road Racer, Gt3,gt2,imsa, 996,930,911 on 2040-cars
Portland, Oregon, United States
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. |

Remembering Porsche's illustrious Le Mans history
Fri, 13 Jun 2014Not only does this weekend mark the running of the 82nd 24 Hours of Le Mans, it will also see the return of one of the race's most venerable brands to the top tiers of endurance racing. Porsche will campaign its first top-flight car since the 1998 911 GT1-98, the 919 Hybrid, at this weekend's race, in the hopes of knocking off its corporate rival, the dominant Audi team.
To understand just what a win for the 919 would mean, though, you need to look back on the intrinsic connection between the Circuit de la Sarthe and Porsche. It's a history that spans decades, dating back to the team's first win in 1970.
XCar has a great video on that history. At 25 minutes, it's a bit on the long side. Then again it is the Friday before Le Mans. Take a look below for the video.
Jay Leno puts carbon fiber wheels to the test on a Porsche 911 GT3 RS
Thu, 04 Sep 2014Jay Leno's Garage usually focuses on looking at cars new and old, speaking to their owners and then Jay taking a drive to see what he thinks. However, Leno throws his usual shtick to the curb this week to do a full product test of the carbon fiber wheels from a company called Carbon Revolution. If you're not interested in hearing about wheels for 18 minutes, don't worry. They get mounted on a Porsche and are tested back-to-back with stock wheels, and Leno takes the 911 for a track test, too.
While carbon-fiber wheels aren't exactly a new idea, Carbon Revolution's goal is to create a lightweight, one-piece product that can be mass produced. The company even claims that it already has a deal with an OEM automaker to offer them on a vehicle in a few years. The key to the technology is that it doesn't need an expensive autoclave to be made.
In the meantime, the company's carbon fiber wheels are available as an aftermarket option for about $15,000 a set, according to the video. They weigh in at about 15.5 pounds each and offer OEM-levels of stiffness, so they could cut some unsprung mass off of a performance car. Watch here as Jay and his mechanic Bernard lap Willow Springs and give their feedback about what they think of this cutting-edge technology.
Porsche recalling 4,400 911, Boxster and Cayman models over hood latches
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Porsche has issued a "precautionary" and voluntary safety recall affecting some 4,400 sports cars across the globe. Here in the United States, the recall includes 1,382 911, Boxster convertibles and Cayman coupes, all of which are from model years 2014 and 2015.
Porsche will be replacing the lock bracket for the front cargo area (the frunk) after internal testing revealed that, while the vehicles meet "strength requirements," specific parts might not meet the company's quality standards throughout the vehicle's life. There have been no reports of accidents or injuries.
Owners of the affected cars will be notified within 60 days and will need to report to a nearby dealer for a free repair, which should take about 30 minutes.
