Absolutely beautiful 1963 Coupe.  Red with black interior. T-6 body. Not a door nick or scratch on it.  Drives beautifully, shifts perfectly and tight. Never in an accident, never been a neglected or rusty car.  The car was ordered from the factory with "show paint", no doubt one reason the paint lasted so long.  It had the original paint on it until a few years ago when I had the car completely stripped to bare metal, body disassembled, epoxy primed and repainted in the original color. All new body and window seals at that time, new interior sound proofing throughout, new German weave carpet,most of the chrome was re-plated  with the exception of dash gauges & interior door pulls which do show some pitting, and the blinker and rear light chrome which was not done so all the numbers would still show (these are in very good to excellent condition), new front windshield, new head-liner, dash board cover.  All parts and seals came OEM from Stoddard Porsche. Rear jump seats are original and in excellent condition.


Original factory extras: Horn ring, moon caps, AM FM SW radio (still works great), tool kit with the original spare valves, manual, and the very rare original red and black plaid rear seat luggage case that came new with the car.  

Mechanical:  engine and transmission were both completely rebuilt about 20,000 miles ago. Complete brakes and drums were also done at that time.  Everything works very well. The engine was rebuilt with  the big bore kit to provide more acceleration up California hills, but I do have the 4 original pistons and barrels. Otherwise the engine is original with original carbs and original 6 volt system. The car starts quickly, shifts smoothly, tracks straight and true, no shimmies or shakes of any kind, tight steering, smooth and solid braking. The floor pan is the original without any problems.

The bad:  The dash clock stopped working.  There is some minor pitting on dash gauge chrome rings and on both interior door closing handles, the ones just under the windows, not the interior door handles themselves. The engine does drip some oil, but I have never had to add any between my usual 2,000 mile or once/ year changes.

The car was tuned a few weeks ago and the compression tested between 145-150 psi.in all cylinders.

This car is ready to drive anywhere.  It is a California car, it is currently registered in California, but CAR IS CURRENTLY IN FLORIDA. I will be glad to cooperate in buyer arranged shipping across country or overseas.

Porsche Boxster/Cayman GTS, Macan, 911 Targa details leaked

Fri, 27 Sep 2013

The folks over at Jalopnik have published some rather interesting images from what looks to be a presentation held inside Porsche's North American headquarters in Atlanta, GA. What these leaked photos reveal is pretty significant - details about several of the brand's upcoming launches, including GTS versions of the Boxster and Cayman, a new 911 Targa, and information about the Macan crossover that will debut at this year's Los Angeles Auto Show. Of course, none of this information has been officially verified, but it all looks and sounds pretty believable to us. So, let's dig in.
First up, Porsche will launch the Boxster and Cayman GTS models at next year's Beijing Motor Show in April. Upgrades for the GTS models will include a 15-horsepower bump, standard manual transmission (with optional dual-clutch PDK), standard Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) and a slightly quicker 0-60 time. Jalopnik reports that these models will cost around $75,000.
We've spied the soon-to-be-revealed Porsche Macan (pictured right) on several occasions, and these slides suggest that the small crossover will have two different types of turbo power under its hood. The Macan S will use a 3.0-liter turbocharged V6, while the Macan Turbo will use a 3.6-liter unit. Seven-speed PDK transmissions are expected to be fitted to both, and this leaked information states that the new, small Porsche will cost $52,000 and $75,000 for the S and Turbo versions, respectively.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax

Thu, 24 Jul 2014



The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
