I am selling my 1970 Porsche 914 with many extra parts. It has very little rust, just a few spots on the floor pans which has been covered with POR-15 and reinforcing mesh. The rolling chassis came from California. When I got it I stripped down the interior, engine compartment, and RR trunk to bare metal and painted with POR-15 (Did not do the front trunk yet). The hell hole and longs have no rust. The battery tray was rusted, so I removed it and relocated the battery to the RR trunk. It has a 1.7 liter motor (not original) with weber carbs and has been upgraded to a later side shift transmission. The transmission was rebuilt a couple years ago and works well (just needs a very slight shifter adjustment). The distributor has been upgraded to a unilite electronic unit with an MSD 6A box. The engine runs well most of the time, but has an intermittent rough running issue. I believe it is something in the fuel system causing it to run lean, likely the fuel pump. I have a brand new, unopened carb fuel pump and filter that will come with it. The interior is OK, but does need some work. The passenger side window needs installed (everything comes with it) and the driver side needs adjusted. The entire car could use a new paint job or fix the one it has. There are a lot of scratches and the clear coat that the previous owner sprayed on is full of runs. The bumpers are aftermarket fiber glass ones molded to look like OEM. The targa top needs painted. The key only works in the ignition and passenger door, the rest need rekeyed. The trunk has an electric opener instead of a key. Almost new Kumho Ecsta AST tires (less than 500 miles on them). There are a lot of little things that need done on the car, but it is a very good starting point and comes with a ton of extra parts.
There are far too many extra parts to list them all (I had 2 parts cars), but I will list the bigger ones: 2.0 liter engine (minus heads) that needs rebuilt; Tail shift transmission case with some internals; Original 1.7 liter fuel injection system; Brand new unopened carb fuel pump w/ filter; Full extra set of suspension; 2.0 liter muffler; Set of 5-lug adaptors; Many unopened new parts; 2 Italian made Weber 40 IDF carbs that need rebuilt; The 3 shelving units in the pictures are full of the extra parts, plus there are many not shown or listed. Overall the car is in pretty good condition, just needs someone who wants to finish the project I started. I want to sell everything together as a package deal with local pick up only. The car is sold AS IS and the buyer assumes all responsibility. Ask any questions before bidding. Feel free to email me if you want to come look at it before bidding. I reserve the right to end the listing at any time if the vehicle sells separately. |

Porsche 918 Spyder configurator goes live
Fri, 13 Sep 2013That didn't take long. The debut model of the new Porsche 918 Spyder is still thronged by onlookers at the Frankfurt Motor Show, while the German sports car maker is hard at work putting the first version of the supercar's configuration page online. Considering Porsche configurators are some of our favorite time-wasters of the genre, we expect car-guy productivity to drop by a few percentage points over the rest of the day.
So, the 918 dream-maker doesn't list and prices as yet, and that's too bad. But considering the car is due to start off at $845,000 in the US, chances are good that unless you're reading this from the shallow end of your Uncle Scrooge-spec money pool, the cost of any part of the 918 is academic to you anyway.
To start, Porsche is offering twelve paint colors, three wheel choices and seven two-tone interior treatments. Standard lightweight bucket seats and a set of chairs with "firmer padding" are on offer, too. The options list is mostly populated with interior bits, though many - an anti-reflection interior, fire extinguisher, six-point seatbelts - are racing-oriented or functional. Note that Porsche is also kind enough to offer just one cupholder as an optional extra; the unit is made of aluminum and is detachable so that you won't have to carry the extra weight during racing. Also, Porsche probably puts you on some kind of naughty 'list' if you order one...
Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines
Wed, 19 Mar 2014About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.
eBay Find of the Day: Your choice of new, unregistered mid-2000s supercars
Wed, 26 Dec 2012If you didn't quite find what you were hoping to see under the tree this year, maybe it's about time you buy yourself something nice. Something like an unregistered 2005 Porsche Carrera GT. The car has never been titled and has just 83 miles on the odometer. With one owner since new, the Carrera GT is likely to be as nice an example as you're likely to find outside of a museum. Porsche only built 340 of these machines back in 2005, and with a 610 horsepower V10 kicking at your spine, you can lap Santa's sleigh next year. Currently, the Carrera GT has a buy it now price of $457,325 with around six days left on the auction.
Not flashy enough for your tastes? Stroll on down to West Hollywood and you'll find a similarly untitled 2004 Ferrari Enzo up for grabs with a sticker of $1.8 million. Technically a Euro-spec car, the Enzo isn't legal to operate on US roads, but could be modified to satisfy Uncle Sam with a little effort. The seller calls this car the "last brand-new Enzo in existence" and with 175 miles on the clock, that may be a true statement. You can head over to eBay Motors for a closer look if you're feeling spendy.
