1967 912 Soft Window
Targa Red Vin 550214 Car is located in Bend Oregon I bought this car many years ago and have stored it inside,
with all my other cars I have many other Early P-Cars and haven’t had the time
to drive it much so it is time to go to a caring home. that existed are gone, the tub is solid but not a 50K Job It is better than many shops turn out and is not a bondo fix (Nor is it a Porsche Classic Body panel alignment) Seats were replaced with an original set with factory headrests, Soft window is near new Car comes with a tonneau for the rear window Engine was rebuilt and pulls very strong . I am guessing it might have 20-25 hours on the motor Compression is 130-138 on all cylinders. The previous owner stamped the motor kind of funky so I will not say its original, it puts out significantly more power than a stock motor and has a new Bursch muffler and headers. It sounds awesome The car has had a complete service, all fluids etc. have
been changed New Battery and all lights checked etc. Fuel system drained flushed and Carbs cleaned and rebuilt Brake lines re -done (brakes are at 85 percent plus) 4 new Konis all the
way around, bushing and suspension including alignment and a quick corner balance 5 Speed 901 shifts well with no wacky noises I little tough
going into first at speed but not at rest It had a bad set of pitted Brazilians so I replaced with
knock off 5.5x15 Fuchs I can put on Steel wheels or 5.5 Fuchs or 6 Inch Fuchs So new Yokohama sports were fitted. these fuch look a likes
really look nice and handle well. I do not remember about the clock but everything else but the radio is working All locks are keyed correctly I would rate this car as a 3+ great 2-3 foot driver, If a
Porsche expert wants to find it’s faults well there are always ones that are
better. Soft Window Targa’s are rare and I have owned ( and still own other
examples ) they are going to appreciate as they will cruise at 80 and handles
very well. To me the targa on and back window down on a hot day is blast and
more fun than most open cars !! The guys who did the work are well respected and I have no problem giving you references and put you in contact with them for more info The 80 or so pics are a good indication of the car flaws and
all. At 47 Yrs old it get a huge amount of attention and get thumbs up and
questions every time its driven I am not a dealer but a hobbiest and have way too many cars,
I will never have time to drive this much. With College coming up for my kids I am thinning the herd a
bit , If you are looking for a driver quality car that brings a smile to your face this is it, the 912 soft window is like driving a Speedster/356 cab without spending $150K This same car in a 911 would command over $120K Yes It has taken peoples choice and other awards at shows,
but the Guys who did the refresh have worked on Pebble Beach show cars that
have sold for over $250K Car is for sale locally and I reserve the right to end the Auction Early |

Porsche updates 919 Hybrid LMP1 for 2015 assault [w/video]
Fri, Mar 27 2015Last season, Porsche returned to the top level of endurance racing with the 919 Hybrid, picking up a mantle that has seen the German marque win the 24 Hours of Le Mans a record sixteen times – more than any other manufacturer ever to compete at the legendary French race. Of course, Porsche didn't beat its sister company Audi right out of the box, but managed to win the last race in the FIA World Endurance Championship in Brazil before the season was done. This year it undoubtedly hopes to do even better, and this is the machine with which it will endeavor to take the top honors. Newly revised and optimized for the 2015 season, the new 919 Hybrid was just revealed on the eve of the first test session of the season at the Paul Ricard test track in the South of France. It may look largely the same as the model it succeeds, but benefits from numerous advancements made to help Porsche catch up with Audi and Toyota. For starters, Zuffenhausen has opted to step up to the eight-megajoule category, favoring the electric side of its hybrid powertrain over the internal combustion engine. So the compact 2.0-liter turbocharged V4 now drives in excess of 500 horsepower to the rear wheels, and the electric motor – powered by two energy recovery systems and a liquid-cooled lithium-ion battery – kicks in upwards of 400 hp to the front wheels. The rest of the package has been comprehensively updated as well, giving it a lower weight, improved rigidity, revised suspension and reshaped aerodynamic elements. Porsche will field two cars at most of the races this season, but will increase its team to three cars for certain races – one in black, one in white and one in red. Following the "prologue" test session at Paul Ricard this weekend, the season kicks off with the 6 Hours of Silverstone on April 12, when the new Porsche 919 Hybrid will take on the similarly revised Audi R18 E-Tron Quattro and Toyota TS040 Hybrid for the first time in earnest.
