This car is a Porsche 911 built in 1965.  According to research it's a 1966 model and is titled as such.   It is a major project. 

First of all the obvious-someone cut the roof off many years ago.  Please don't email me hate messages...I didn't do it-it was done many years ago in the Vanilla Ice era I'm sure.  Along with the custom convertible job the rear fenders were flaired and the front fenders had the turn signals filled in with body filler.  Late model bumpers were fabricated onto the original fenders-easily removed. 

Okay, let's look at the good stuff.  It isn't THAT rusty.  It was a California car until 5 years ago.  Matching number passenger door and passenger front fender, possibly the driver front fender also  Rear fenders are original, just modified.  Some patches on the floor but nothing major.  The rockers show some paint bubbling.  The torque tube in the rear, suspension pickup locations, etc all look good.   The rear shelf looks okay, one rear seat bottom has been patched. The battery tray looks pretty good, the front suspension pan has only a little rust.  Front longhood fenders have simply had the turn signals covered with body filler. Also, they had later headlights installed. Original Porsche door glass.  Yes, this car would require work all over but it is NOT one of those cars that is returning back to the earth! 

Mechanically-no engine or transmission or rear axles.  The car has a tranmission when I bought it but it was not the original and has been removed. The brakes and suspension all look good.  Gas heater.

The interior has the original gauges, wood dash trim, 911script.  Seats go with the car-not original of course.  No rear seat. 

The Fuchs shown do NOT go with the car.  I'll include some rollers including one date coded 65. 

I have a 1968 Porsche 912 that I will  make available to the winning bidder for $3500.  This will give the buyer all the body parts such as the roof, fenders, etc. plus lots of other extra parts left over.  Or, the winning bidder can buy the 912 and restore or resell at his/her leisure. 

This car won't ever be a concourse winner but with a new roof (I'd go with a rollcage) and fenders welded on, it would make a great period race car-especially in Europe where 1965 and  earlier cars are held at a premium.   I have a clear open title good for your state or for export. I have a picture link with lots of pictures.  Please email me for the link or if you have any questions.

Porsche not responsible for Paul Walker and Roger Rodas crash

Tue, Apr 5 2016

A US District Court judge has found that Porsche wasn't responsible for the Carrera GT crash that killed Roger Rodas and actor Paul Walker, according to The Detroit News citing the Associated Press. Rodas' widow, Kristine, brought the lawsuit against the German automaker, but the court ruled there was a lack of evidence for her case. "Plaintiff has provided no competent evidence that Rodas' death occurred as a result of any wrongdoing on the part of defendant," US District Judge Philip S. Gutierrez ruled, according to the AP. Rodas' lawyer pledged to appeal the decision. Rodas' lawsuit asserted that the Carrera GT's right rear suspension failed and also cited the Porsche's lack of a proper fuel cell or a crash cage as factors. However, the judge didn't see any evidence for the suspension failure. He also criticized the expert for Rodas' side for analyzing tire marks from over a month after the crash rather than the photos from right after the incident, the AP reports. A 2014 investigation by the Los Angeles County Sherriff's Department blamed unsafe speed as the fatal accident's cause. The investigators reported that the Carrera GT was doing between 80 and 93 miles per hour when the crash happened. They also found nothing mechanically wrong with the supercar but did discover that the tires were over nine years old. The LA County Coroner ruled that both deaths were accidents. According to the AP, the lawsuits from Walker's daughter and his father against Porsche are still pending in Los Angeles Superior Court, and the district court ruling doesn't affect them. In each case, Porsche denied being at fault and cited the sheriff's investigation as support for that argument. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Porsche suspends 911 GT3 deliveries amidst fears of spontaneous combustion

Mon, 17 Feb 2014

Seeing pictures of Italian supercars burst into flames by the side of the road, as our compatriots at Axis of Oversteer point out, has become something of a usual sight. But a Porsche? Surely those meticulous German engineers have got that taken care of, right?
Not necessarily. Reports coming in from Europe indicate that no fewer than five 911 GT3 coupes have "spontaneously combusted" in the past few weeks, prompting Porsche to launch an investigation. In the meantime, they've reportedly ceased deliveries of the new GT3 while they try to determine what the problem is and work to rectify it.
We wouldn't be surprised to see a recall issued once the problem is resolved, but for now, we'd encourage existing owners to be extra vigilant behind the wheel - or better yet, leave their cars in the garage for the time being. You wouldn't want to drive a 475-horsepower rear-drive sports car through a Polar Vortex, anyway, right?

Top Gear teases Porsche 918 vs McLaren P1 vs LaFerrari showdown

Mon, Jan 5 2015

It's the comparison test we've been waiting over a year to come together: the hybrid hypercar showdown of the century between the McLaren P1, Porsche 918 Spyder and Ferrari LaFerrari. They've each got hybrid powertrains pairing eight or more cylinders with an electric motor to drive around 900 horsepower through seven-speed dual-clutch transmissions. They come from exotic automakers with rich racing pedigrees, and each costs around a million bucks. Leave it to the guys from Top Gear, then, to finally put it together. The story adorns the cover of this month's issue of Top Gear magazine, which arranged the showdown – not the television program that started it all. Fortunately, they didn't miss the opportunity to capture the action on video, which will be available to iPad subscribers – but whether you've got access or not, you can catch a short clip of the seven-figure hybrid hypercars right here.
