1975 porsche 911 s. lots of details. will try to list as best as I can
this car was parked by previous owner in 1995. it was parked in a controlled environment no rain sun etc.
I purchased the car in january of 13. took it to a porsche mechanic and he started working on it
here is a list of what he did
10.5 hours labor removed timing chain covers and inspect tensioners. replace mechanical tensioners with used ones. removed valve covers check cylinder head torque and adj valves check exhaust valve guide for wear resurface and clean valve covers and replaced gaskets. replaced rear deck strut. replaced front struts for front hood. replace alternator belt install pop off valve check compression replace spakr plugs changed oil with additive
compression is as follows cylinder 1 140 2 was 125 3 was 130 4 was 130 5 was 125 6 was 135 keep in mind this is after it was sitting for around 18 years. I have driven the car 1500 miles since this procedure. it runs great. but this was the ppi at that time. in march
3.0 hours remove test and clean fuel injectors remove clean test and re calibrated warm up regulator lube accelerator linkage pivot points at pedal assy bell housing and top of engine
1.5urs labor charging system. replaced alternator and voltage regulator
3.4 remove and rebuild rear brake calipers. flush and replenish brake fluid
1.5 labor remove ac compressor and brackets smog pump and bracket and plumming replaced fuel sender
that bill was nearly 2800 dollars labor and parts.
also replaced with a new fuel tank. and 4 new tires. 205 60 15 falkens. cleaned and replaced fuel lines that needed replaced
so all the parts were replaced and have been driing the car for 1500 miles it starts runs drives. performs great and stops great
this is a great car I just have too many cars. thinning the heard a little.
the car was d escribed in detail on pelican porsche dot com and I had a lot of help. I was told it was a silver anniversary edition
but I never sent the paperwork in the have it verified. so that is up to the new owner. if it sells.
This porsche has been here in the valley for years. it supposedly was wrecked at the front end at one time. the chin in the front was hit and it was repaired. but it was repaired badly the crinkled spots are right behind the old gas tank. and in the front corner and the front chin. there is a spot back by the deck lid where there was some repair done as well. I didn't think it was that bad. but it did get hit at one point. the car tracks nicely so I don't think anything was done to any of the steering or anything.
I was given this whale tail. and I installed it. it wasnt realy fun to line the holes up that I had to drill. but it is installed and I am including the original engine cover if you desire. if you choose to take the whale tail off. there will need to be some holes fixed. as I had to drill some to get it to fit. I am including the air compressor and extra stuff like condenser etc. that I took off. I wanted this to run as cool as possible. so I took it off
I have a gently set of used rear shocks and brand new set of front ones. that should fit. the rears are billstein and the front ones were ordered to fit into the front. but they are not installed. but they need to be
windshield wipers work. headlights and all other lights work. wiper fluid workes but the headlight wiper fluid won't spray. needs a motor
the issues I am having with thie car are... the sunroof worked then didnt. it was a fuse was dirty. so I got it fixied again. worked perfect. now it doesn't suspect a fuse or something. as the motor was checked and it was fine. we replaced a sunroof switch as well
hot restart. being that I replaced the warm up regulator and the fuel accumilator. after a long ride. you need to have the hand accelerator lifted as to give it gas. this works on a hot restart every time. if you don't it will just crank. kind of confusing why. but I replaced lots of stuff to fix that particular problem. new fuel pump and the check valve is fine. etc.
all in all I have put tons of money into the car in only a few short months that I have owned it. I love it. but I have a 39 chevy coupe and a 67 camaro and need to sell one of my toys. if it doesn't sell. oh well I tried.. ha! sold as is where is. no warranty
was told it had a repaint at some point. it has some flaws knicks and rock chips. but it is nice. could use a new paint job.
blaupunkt stereo works perfectly. am fm radio. was told the rear speakers were an add on? the interior speaks for itself. back has a couple little areas where mice ate some fabric unfortunately. the passenget seat is starting to become unstitched doen the middle. horn works all windows work. glass all seems fine. another area is the engine it will leak out of the valve cover when sitting a little. and right onto the exhaust. smells a little. was told I needed some 930 valve covers. that would fix it> but I didn't. nice s teering wheel. wooden with a name etched into the front side. nice ride. gauges work as far as I can tell. new fuel sending unit. so fuel gauge works. spedo is funny. it wont register until about 20 mph then it is fast. example at 80 mph it records 90 mph the car handles really nice at speeds of 90 and I wont say how fast I had it. but it is always handled great. dash looks great. oh in the passenger foot area. I don't know why. but the panel was cut and I think someone was trying to access the rear of the front compartment? pics to follow. it is covered up. and back 2 speakers work. and the fron one is disconnected and one is missing.
this is not a show car. but It is nice and a real head turner. please don't expect a show car for what I am asking. ask all questions and I will see if I can get a video of the car running. I can text a video. but don't know how to add a video here. let me know if anyone has any questions ok? thanks and good luck
thought of a couple more things. it has a tool kit. rear view mirror fell off. it is included. and the tranny shifts into all 5 gears and reverse. the porsche seems to work better if it is fully warmed up. if I take off and the car is cold it seems harder to shift. especially going from first to second. when I hit the clutch it wants to switch gears quick. and sometimes it is hard to find third. but minimally when it is warmed up for some reason.

This Porsche 356 family keeps it outlaw
Wed, 29 Oct 2014Rod Emory was the founder of Emory Motorsports in Burbank, CA, and the scion to a family tradition of building "outlaw" Porsches that are almost as cool as the cars themselves. The lovingly modified Porsche 356s are lovely artifacts, and their story, along with the story of their builders, is pitch-perfect for the Petrolicious oeuvre of beloved classics.
Tune in for the history lesson, and then stick around for the car candy.
Toyota tops Kelley Blue Book's Resale Value Awards
Tue, 27 Nov 2012Kelley Blue Book announced its annual Best Resale Value Award winners, and we weren't too surprised to see the list dominated by Japanese automakers - mainly Toyota and Honda. KBB hands out the awards based on the projected residual value of mostly all 2013 model year vehicles, and Toyota skated home with a number of awards including 10 of the 22 overall categories and having five of its products in the top 10 for models with best resale value. KBB's Best Resale Value Awards were announced in the same week as the ALG Residual Value Awards, and there were many similarities between both lists, especially when it came to Toyota.
To come up with its winners, KBB measures depreciation over the first five years of ownership, and looks for the cars it expects to hold its value the best after this time; on average, the report says the 2013 model year vehicles will lose 61.8 percent of its value in five years. Of the 22 categories, 15 slots were filled by Toyota, Honda and Nissan products, while the Camaro and Porsche (Cayenne and Panamera) each took home a pair of awards. If Toyota has anything to be upset about in this list of cars, it's that categories for Hybrid/Alternative Energy Car and Electric Vehicle went to the Ford Fusion and Chevrolet Volt, respectively.
The overall top 10 models for the best resale value in 2013 are, in alphabetical order:
Father-son team grows close by building tuned Porsche
Mon, 21 Jul 2014We've seen several heartwarming videos of kids bonding over cars with their parents, whether racing together or giving them as gifts. The story of Leh Keen and his father McGrath, though, is somewhat different. Not many dads are looking for a vehicle quite this mental.
As Leh tells it, his dad saw a video online of one of the wild Porsches from Japanese tuner Rauh-Welt Begriff and decided that he needed one of the creations in his own garage. Since Leh knows something about cars himself as a driver for Alex Job Racing in the United SportsCar Championship, McGrath put his son in charge of managing the build from the company.
When the car made it to the US for completion from Rauh's famed builder Nakai, father and son bonded over the red, widebody 993-platform 911. The final product is certainly eye-catching. Scroll down to watch the video that features not only an engrossing father-son tale but also a seriously wicked, tuned Porsche from one of Japan's finest.
