What makes this car special is that it's a 1973.5 911T Targa with the CIS 2.4 engine. What makes it really special, is the fact that it's a FACTORY TANGERINE car with FACTORY SPORTS SEAT (THESE ALONE ARE WORTH OVER $5K!), and A/C. The engine, with the exception of the starter, is all there as far as I can tell. One of the cylinders has a bad crack in it. The case doesn't seem to have been cracked open. The tranny is there as well. The pics show the engine out of the car and in pieces, but I have since put the heads, cylinders, and intake on it, and installed the engine and tranny on the car to make it easier to transport. Targa top is in bad shape, but is complete. Engine does not turn. It's in need of complete restoration. It has a little rust, but just around the rear window, lower rear section of the quarter panels, under the headlights, the bottom of the driver side door, on the top of the front fenders, and some on the outside part of the batter boxes, which by the way look remarkably good as does the suspension pan. I found no rust on or around the rear parcel shelf. I have made every attempt to describe the car in detail, and may have made it sound a lot worse than it really is, but the truth of the matter is that there is minimal rust on it for a car that's been sitting for 12 years. Item is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the auction early if sold locally. Bid to buy. Vehicle is located in Miami, FL and you can come see it in person if you like. Please contact me via Ebay message to coordinate a showing. This is a 3 day auction, so make your bid fast, and make it count! It rolls perfectly, and it's truly a beautiful example of an early, desirable Porsche. This will make someone a great and valuable early Porsche that will continue to go up in value.

Driving 50 years of Porsche 911 history

Fri, 06 Sep 2013

Raiding The Porsche Museum For A Fun Track Day
It seems everyone is celebrating anniversaries this year: it's Aston's hundredth, Lamborghini's fiftieth, Ford Mustang's fiftieth, Chevy Corvette's sixtieth - and Tesla just turned ten or something. It's been a little out of hand, frankly, all these forced marketing festivities, but if we had to pick one milestone to really celebrate hard and party all night, the Porsche 911 would be at the top of our list.
Get ready for a major 911 blowout bash at next week's Frankfurt Motor Show. It was on September 12 back in 1963 at this very show where Porsche unveiled its "901" painted in a rather boring shade of beige. Though drably finished, the car caused a worldwide frenzy in the budding German sports car sphere.

Jay Leno welcomes finely rebuilt Porsche 356 into his garage

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

Not a month after the Porsche 911 Reimagined by Singer visited Jay Leno's garage, another artfully restored Porsche has rolled in. This time it's a 1957 Porsche 356A Outlaw, the "outlaw" moniker referring to Porsches that have been restored outside the bounds of period-correct orthodoxy.
This 356A was literally done from the ground up by Michigander Chuck Olenyk, the floor of the car having fallen apart so badly that he couldn't remove the roof at first since it was holding the vehicle together. Olenyk said that of the 2000 hours over seven years that he spent restoring the car, 500 were spent just on repairing the rust. That's undoubtedly some of the reason why when he tried to sell the unrestored car as a roller in the nineties for $1,000, no one would take it off his hands.
Olenyk fitted a mildly tuned engine from a Porsche 912, the transmission from a 356B, the brakes from a 356C, Fuchs mags and a modified replicar Speedster roof from Intermecchnica. It lacks nothing even with just 115 horsepower, and it adds to that with charm and aural appeal. You can see and hear the full story in the video below.

Former Porsche boss Wiedeking won't face criminal charges over VW bid

Mon, 28 Apr 2014

Hedge fund managers have been suing Porsche for years now, alleging that the car company lied about its intentions during its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen, a gambit that caused them billion in losses. Over the same period, authorities in Stuttgart built a criminal case against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking (above, left) and Chief Financial Officer Holger Härter (right), filing charges in December 2012. When those fund plaintiffs lost their most recent court case, one of the dimming lights in the dark and receding tunnel was that the criminal investigation might unearth more evidence about Porsche's actions that could help the plaintiffs in pending litigation.
Bloomberg reports that another light has gone out, though, with a Stuttgart court dismissing the market manipulation case before going to trial because, as a court spokesperson said, "there wasn't enough evidence backing up the charges." When prosecutors get the files back from the court, they have a week to decide to refile, but unless they've been sandbagging evidence that could bolster the case, the only lights at the end of the tunnel will be those welcoming Wiedeking and Härter back to the world of legally unencumbered men.
