This matching numbers 1973 Porsche 911T Coupe was well on its way to becoming the hot rod of somebody's dreams when
the project stalled. The car is Chassis #9113103431 and retains its original engine #6136072. Originally Silver
Metallic/80 with Black Leatherette interior, the car was resprayed this color and fitted with Corbeau sport seats,
flares and the bumpers you see pictured. The interior has a dash cover, so no cracks, and RS door panels along with
a MoMo steering wheel. The paint didn't survive well, and as you can see neither did the seats. The good news is
this car has not been attacked by rust. The floors are very solid as can be seen in the photos, as are the torsion
bar areas. Front pan has no rust but was modified for a front oil cooler at some point. We very rarely see an early
911 come in that is as solid as this car! The Zenith carbs pictured are not installed but are included with the
car. Windshield has a crack in it. Period 16x7 and 16x8 BBS are on the car, painted vintage racing gold.
The Porsche Kardex information is as follows:
1973 911T Coupe
Engine 6136072
Color Silver Metallic/80
Inside Black Leatherette/11
Option Codes:
C02 (USA delivery)
G53
M 473 (911S trim options)
This is a car that can be taken in the direction of your choice. Get it running and have a mean looking RS-style
hot rod or restore it to original and have one of the most desirable model years for an early 911. 1973 was the
last year of the original 911 body style with signature long hood, and as such remains very collectible.

Malaise Era All-Stars
Fri, 17 May 2013A few weeks ago, we bid a fond happy 40th anniversary to the automotive dark ages of 1973-84 that have come to be known as "The Malaise Era" - the performance ice-age when 160 horsepower was a lot and a 0-60 time of under 10 seconds was remarkable. Like music in the 1980s, everything in automobiledom didn't suck, however. There were a few bright spots. Here are five of our favorites:

Porsche's former CEO Wiedeking to stand trial over VW-share manipulation
Wed, 27 Aug 2014Former Porsche CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (left in the above photo) could potentially be facing some time in the slammer after all. The last we had heard, he and former Chief Financial Officer Holger Haerter (right) had avoided a trial in April due to a lack of evidence. However, an appeals court in Stuttgart has looked at the case again and overruled the earlier decision, finding that the executives should be tried for share manipulation during Porsche's failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008, Bloomberg reports.
The judges in the appeal "list numerous indications that could suggest that there was a hidden decision to increase the stake as they could suggest the opposite evaluation by the lower court," said Stefan Schueler, a spokesperson for the court, in a statement cited by Bloomberg. Wiedeking and Haerter put out their own releases saying that there was no merit to the charges.
The prosecutors allege that Wiedeking and Haerter had a plan to buy up VW stock options in 2008 to take the automotive giant over but hid it from investors. The whole thing was a massive failure and eventually allowed VW the chance to acquire Porsche and forced the two execs to step down. In addition to the criminal investigation, hedge funds have attempted to sue the company multiple times in civil court for the same reason, but they have repeatedly failed.
Porsche Cayenne shows a bit more face, plug-in spotted
Fri, 14 Mar 2014Porsche was first rumored to be working on a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version of the Cayenne over a year ago. However, we had never seen it, until now. The new model was caught almost completely undisguised while testing. In another stroke of luck, we got a glimpse of the upcoming facelift for Porsche's SUV (pictured above) as well.
According to the spy shooter, it was windy during the cars' cold weather testing. The cover blew off of the facelifted Cayenne, and there was enough time to snap these pictures before it could be hidden again. The changes are all quite minor but jive with what we saw the last time it was spied. The rear still wears some cladding but is expected to be hiding lights similar to the Macan.
The second gallery shows off the upcoming Cayenne PHEV. It looks nearly identical to the standard model, except for the extra panel on the driver's side of the car that hides the electric port. One image even shows the car plugged in. The new version is expected to use the same supercharged 3.0-liter V6 and 9.4-kilowatt-hour lithium-ion battery pack with a combined 416 horsepower and 435 pound-feet of torque from the Panamera S E-Hybrid. We enjoyed the system when we tested it last year. It's rumored to debut on the SUV sometime this year.
