Here  is a rare  opportunity   to  own  a  never   rusted or    never  accident   beautiful   early  911. These  cars  are  hard  to  find  in  any  condition  much  less a California  rust  free  example   with  all  original  panels  rockers   floor  and   trunk  floor!  great  gaps   super   straight.  This  car  was  stripped  to bare  metal  and  the  metal  was    cleaned   and  many  photographs  taken  at that  stage. It was  metal  etched  primed    then   metal  finished     . This  car   has  barely  any  filler  anywhere! It was    urethane  primed     blocked  and   painted  in  the   wonderful original  Irish  green  and  clearcoated. It was    color  sanded   to  a  flat   mirror  finish   that  is   deep and   pure gloss.

  It   has    new  seats   headliner  and  dash.  The   wood  is   untouched  and   the    best  looking   dash  ever  put  in a 911 .

  The  brakes   were  rebuilt  and  work  excellent.  The   original  dated    1965   trans  shifts    great  no  noises . New   seals   all  around   some  pieces new  rechrome   The     chrome   around  side  windows  is  original but  not  bad.

  The   engine  is   a  1970  2.2   with   zeniths. No  leaks!  The    oil  pressure  is a  steady  60   pounds  and  the  compression  is  a   around  150 psi.  It   does  smoke   a  little  and  the  carbs    do   run  smooth  sometimes . It is  could  use a set  of  Webers  and  toss  the  zeniths.  I   have a  line  on a   66  case   and   my  intention    was  to build a   2.7   aluminum  case engine   but   other   priorities  have   got   in the way  of  that.

   These early  hand  made 911's   will continue  to     rise    in  value  with out  a doubt. The  65   is  identical  in    almost  every  detail    but  they  were mostly   European  delivery . The  66   was   the  one  you  could  find   at the  dealer  if  you  could  find  one  at all.  I     am  always  more  fond  of the  coupe      the  Targa   has  only  60  percent   torsional  stiffness of the  coupe  . It  took  the  factory   till the  80's   to  come up   with  the  right   combination   of  reinforcements   to      build  the  cabriolet  which   we  all  love.

 I can  send    additional  pictures   of  specific  areas   if  needed.

  I   reserve  the  right  to  end  the  auction  early   if  a   deal  is  made  before  auction  ends.

   Thankyou  for  looking!

VW adding particulate filters to gas engines

Wed, Aug 3 2016

Volkswagen is working hard to overcome the PR disaster that is its diesel emissions scandal, and part of its efforts is focusing, weirdly, on petrol engines. Starting in June 2017, the embattled German automaker will add particulate filters to the gas-powered Volkswagen Tiguan and Audi A5. The change will eventually impact nearly every direct-injected gas engine the VW Group makes. Audi? Particulate filter. Seat? Particulate filter. Even Bentley is going to get the tech, all in a bid to reduce soot emissions by 90 percent. In fact, by 2022 VAG expects 7 million of its vehicles to boast the emissions-cleaning tech, which has long been a fixture on diesel engines. "Following increases in efficiency and lower CO2 output, we are now bringing about a sustained reduction in the emission levels of our modern petrol engines by fitting particulate filters as standard," Volkswagen Group research and design boss Dr. Ulrich Eichhorn said in a statement. "In the future, all models will be equipped with the latest and most efficient SCR catalytic converter technology." VW's initial rollout focuses on the 1.4-liter, turbocharged Tiguan and the 2.0-liter, turbocharged A5. Considering the popularity of the 2.0-liter across the VW range, we'd expect it's only a matter of time before VW expands its particulate filters tech to additional gas-powered vehicles.

2013 Goodwood Festival of Speed statue unveiled

Thu, 11 Jul 2013

Each year at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, a single marque is celebrated with a large and ornate "Central Feature" sculpture, with recent automakers including Audi in 2009, Alfa Romeo in 2010, Jaguar in 2011 and Lotus last year. This year, Porsche gets the honor, and it is using the opportunity to commemorate 50 years of the 911.
The sculpture features three generations of the 911 towering over the Goodwood House. The most recent 991 911 has the lowest position, with an original 1963 car second highest and a 1973 2.7 RS at the top of the pile. Be sure to check out the sculpture for yourself in the gallery of images above.

Winterkorn remains CEO of Volkswagen's majority shareholder

Sun, Oct 4 2015

Martin Winterkorn may have stepped down as the chief executive of Volkswagen in the wake of the diesel emissions scandal, but he's not out from under the company's large umbrella just yet. In fact, according to a report from Reuters, he still holds four top-level positions not only within the industrial giant's bureaucracy, but at the top of it. And one of those is as CEO of the company's largest shareholder. That holding company is Porsche SE, the investment arm of the Piech and Porsche families (Ferdinand Porsche's descendants) which holds over 50 percent of VW's shares. In 2008, Porsche SE acquired majority interest in the Volkswagen Group which in turn acquired Porsche the automaker – and placed VW's Winterkorn at the head of the executive board of the holding company. Though Winterkorn has resigned from his position as chairman of VW's management board, he has apparently yet to step down from running Porsche SE. That's not the only job that Winterkorn still retains in VW's senior management. He also continues to serve as chairman of Audi, as well as truck manufacturer Scania, and the new Truck & Bus GmbH into which Scania has been grouped together with Man. It remains unclear if or when Winterkorn might resign from those positions as well, or how his tenure in those posts might affect the company's effort to start over in the aftermath of the scandal in which it is currently embroiled. Also unclear, Reuters reports, is how much, exactly, Winterkorn will receive in compensation after having stepped down from his chair at the head of the VW executive board. His pension is reported at over $30 million, but he could be awarded a large severance package as well amounting to as much as two years' worth of his annual compensation, which amounted to around $18 million last year. Whether he receives the severance pay or not is expected to depend on whether his resignation is considered by the supervisory board to have been the result of his own missteps or independent of the situation that resulted in his resignation. One way or another, he's not likely to go poor anytime soon.
