356 A Posche Coupe 1959 T-2 Originally Miessen Blue, Project Car, Complete. on 2040-cars
Bound Brook, New Jersey, United States
|
This is a late 1959 356, T-2, built 7.59 according to the Kardex, which I have a copy, and was delivered to Hoffman NY. The original color is Meissenblau with Brown interior. 59 356 A T-2 s are a great car to restore, as they have the better ZF steering box, later roller bearing axle stubbs, and better syncro transmission. As a 59, this car is eligible for the VSCCA and many other vintage race groups, here and abroad. The car is very complete with a running, 1 year later 1600 Normal engine. The engine compartment has original intact noise insulation. The drivers doors and deck match the body, I did not take off the passenger panel, but does have the blue paint underneath. The hood is un-kinked and un-numbered. The gauges have correct date stamps. The rare exhaust thru bumperettes for rear bumper are with it. All glass is intact, and seems correct, I took pictures of the glass logos. The passenger quarter glass is plexi. The wheels are very nice chrome repros, and the tires are new 165 x 15. Included with the car are new floors, longitudinals, seat and floor board brackets. The original steering wheel, and rare horn ring and button are there, but the horn ring has a crack, and the button is cracked. I have documents dating back to 1981 when it had 87,000 miles on it. I have some receipt from 80's and 90's and an owners manual. One of the keys are stamped with the original factory key number on Kardex K 149. Meissen Blue is now a highly sought after color. This car has original deco trim, with extruded ends, verses the repros that are pinched and welded. It does have the mirror and sun visors, and one "wedge" front directional stand. The rear license light has the Hella logo, and the rear tear drop trim has the part numbers in them. I encourage inspection, the car is in White House NJ. If sold overseas towing to the port is about 50 miles. I will answer questions and send pictures up till end of action, but not after. I can be reached at tmiller@gardenstategraphics.com I have the car for sale for a friend locally, so I reserve the right to end auction early.

Are you the Porsche Pajun?
Mon, 17 Nov 2014The prospect of Porsche building a smaller version of the Panamera has been an on-again, off-again proposition as the German automaker seems to go back and forth on the project. Last we heard, Porsche had pushed back the so-called Pajun (shorthand for Panamera Junior) until 2019 at the earliest, but we could be looking at it right here.
The automaker's everything-but-automotive division Porsche Design is working on a luxury condo complex called (simply enough) Porsche Design Tower. It's been three years in the making and will take at least another year or two to complete, but the gist of it is that the 57-floor building will include 132 apartments, each with its own en-suite garage in which the residents' cars will be parked thanks to giant elevators.
Porsche Design released a series of renderings showing what the property will look like once complete. Most of the renderings feature Porsches, of course - production models you can find in any of the brand's showrooms, like the one just 23 miles away in Coral Gables. But one of the renderings of the giant glass elevators shows something rather unusual.
Audi RS7 vs. Porsche Panamera Turbo, which would you pick? [w/poll]
Wed, 08 Jan 2014We live in a blessed time - a time when you can buy not just one, but two (or three, or four) monstrously powerful, blazingly fast four-doors that can't only keep up with modern supercars, but in some instances, will outperform them as well. Two of the finest are the Audi RS7 and the refreshed Porsche Panamera Turbo, and Motor Trend has been messing around with the both of them in this comparison video.
MT provides a comprehensive and entertaining look at the RS7 and the turbocharged Panamera as they go through a battery of tests, before getting tossed about on both the road and the track. Starring flip-flop aficionado Jonny Lieberman, it's a must-watch, whether you're in the market for one of the two super sedans or merely want to see the former Autoblog editor again.
After having a look at the video, register a vote for the car you'd park in your driveway in our poll. Hop below for the full video from the team at Motor Trend.
Watch the Chevy Corvette dismiss its Euro rivals at the hands of a Brit magazine
Sat, 08 Feb 2014European auto writers, especially the British, have a bit of a reputation for favoring their own domestic cars over foreign rivals in comparison tests. Just think about how many times you've heard Jeremy Clarkson deify the latest product of UK loins while denigrating an American rival as a hopeless "Yank Tank." However, we have to tip our hats to the folks at Autocar because in its latest video comparing the 2014 Corvette Stingray to the Porsche 911, Jaguar F-Type V8 S and Audi R8, it's actually given the Vette a fair shake.
Autocar has put the Stingray through a battery of tests against what it considers to be the three best sports cars on sale in Europe today. And while the tests that it has chosen are somewhat random and subjective, it has concluded that the C7 can stand up against its rivals, even irrespective of its price. It's one thing to hear about how great the Stingray is from American writers, but it's great to know that not all Brits think we've gone crazy for calling the new Chevrolet "exquisite."
