This 1964 356C hardtop coupe is certified by Porsche Cars North America as authentic. Having the benefit of a recent full restoration, the paint, interior, engine, transmission, and chassis are all in impeccable condition. The fit and finish of the red leather interior compliments the exterior factory color of champagne yellow (but not original color). The paint is bright and even, showing zero dents or dings in the body of the car. The fenders and all major panels of the car are original. There is no bondo on this car. The largest negative feature of this 356 is the horn cover on the steering wheel, which has a minor crack in it. These are no longer available, unless one finds an original piece to replace it. Engine: Air-cooled 356 b 1600S flat 4. Engine# 710991 Chassis: #215839 Model: 1964 356C Karmann Coupe Suspension/Brakes: All suspension components have been refurbished or replaced. All four shocks and brake calipers/pads/discs are new. The 356C was the first model porsche to come with 4 disc brakes as standard. The steering on this car is impeccable and light. The brakes are virtually new and feel strong. Interior: All interior lights and switches work. Including blinkers, windshield wipers, and high beams. The tach, speedometer, and odometer all work as they should. Mileage on odometer is not original, but reflects miles put on the car since its restoration. Original Blaupunkt radio is installed, though not currently hooked up. The interior leather is of the highest quality and sourced from a local porsche interior supplier. The fit and finish of the front and rear seats, door cards, and carpets are all neat and in fine order. Zero tears or stains. The interior of this car smells and looks new and fresh. Exterior: All chrome on this car is perfect. There is ZERO rust or pitting on any of the bumpers or accents. Both doors, as well as the hood and trunk lid close securely, with even panel gaps. All four wheels have no curb rash and present really well. Engine: The 1600cc 356b S engine recently had a full servicing of all fluids, new spark plugs, and the carbs and valves finely tuned. The engine is fed by twin solex carburetors. The car starts briskly, even from a cold start, idles strongly, and pulls strongly through all of its four gears. The battery is new and has always been kept on a tender. There are many details to be addressed when selling a classic vehicle. This one is represented as accurately as possible. Potential buyers, please feel free to ask any further questions or make photo requests not included in the ad. This vehicle does ship world-wide at the cost of the buyer, and I can help arrange the shipping process via trusted shippers I have used before. |

24 Hours of Le Mans an on-and-off love affair
Mon, 24 Jun 2013There was little usual about this year's 24 Hours of Le Mans - intermittent rain in the weeks before the race meant cars didn't get on track as much as they wanted, and intermittent rain during the race meant cars went off track a lot more than they wanted. The race started with a wet track, and one of the records broken because of the random downpours was the number of times the safety car led the field - 11 times this year - although the record of two hours and 53 minutes of lapping behind the safety car, set in 2011, was not eclipsed.
None of that served to dampen the action. With little more than an hour left in the race there were cars still only a few seconds apart fighting for position, leads still changing because of pit stops and everyone drafting anyone they could.
Things didn't go the usual way up front, either - well, not exactly...
2015 Porsche Boxster GTS [w/video]
Thu, 22 May 2014You know the sound: the startling pop-brraaap-pop-pop shotgun fire of unspent flammables coursing through exhaust pipes that usually signals a raw, naughty powerplant beneath the hood.
But when you're nestled in the Porsche Boxster GTS' snug seats, it's not a crackling small block V8 or a high-strung Italian flat crank making the devilish racket, but rather the new king of the Boxster/Cayman lineup, a 3.4-liter flat-six that produces 330 horsepower and 273 pound-feet of torque.
Within the emotional vacuum of a spec sheet, the Boxster GTS' pumped-up grunt seems pretty mild, with a gain of only 15 hp and 7 lb-ft, respectively. But the reworked acoustical experience goes a long way towards suggesting the GTS has a trace of racing blood in its veins, and might even be missing its catalytic converters. In addition to the sonorous, centrally positioned tailpipes, the cabin also fills with lovely mechanical strains thanks to the "Sound Symposer" acoustical amplifier that's trickled down into the Boxster/Cayman lineup from the 911 for the first time. Boxster S, we hardly knew ya.
Preserving automotive history costs big bucks
Wed, 29 Jan 2014
$1.8 million is spent each year to maintain GM's fleet of 600 production and concept cars.
When at least two of the Detroit Three were on the verge of death a few years back, one of the tough questions that was asked of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler execs - outside of why execs were still taking private planes to meetings - was why each company maintained huge archives of old production and concept vehicles. GM, for example, had an 1,100-vehicle collection when talk of a federal bailout began.
