    Offering my 1968 Porsche 912 coupe, a very presentable driver. The car has recent Weber carbs, bosch premium starter and generator, new battery and electric fuel pump.Also has electronic distributor (the original goes with the car). The exhaust is an Ansi and sounds nice.  All the electrics work,but the clock is wacky .The car drives very well-a few caveats- the first gear synchro is shot, so you have to be stopped to downshift to 1st. The car can pull from a crawl in 2nd with no problem. Brakes and steering are good, tires are 75% Kumhos. The e brake is not functional, as one cable is broken. I am trying to get one and should have it fixed. The car leaks a bit (as is pretty common) but not horribly. 

   The car looks awesome from 20 feet, but there are numerous flaws in the paint and trim. Still , for a 45 year old car, it is very sharp. The interior is very good with 1 tiny cracked area (1 1/2 ") in the driver seat bolster. The rest of the seats and headrests are very good. The only rust I have found is in the front pan, and it was repaired by a previous owner and appears sound. It should be attended to at some point, but it drives fine as is, The part is about $300. The area of the floor under the pedals looks crusty from below, but is structurally sound, shows no weakness. the rest of the pans appear to be very solid. I believe the pans are original. Also the edge of the windshield is fogged ( about 2" )
   I will answer any questions I can about the car as honestly as possible, however buyers are encouraged to inspect before bidding. The car is sold with no warantee and is sold AS IS. It is a 45 year old  car .  
   Thanks for looking,

Jaguar F-Type squares off against Porsche 911, Aston V8 Vantage with Chris Harris

Fri, 21 Jun 2013

Chris Harris is back on the job, taking on really really difficult car questions like: Which enormously sexy and good-to-drive, high-performance convertible is the top of the heap? As one of the hottest cars in the luxury space right now, the Jaguar F-Type S is, of course, in on the action. Competition comes in the form of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Roadster and the Porsche 911 Carrera S Cabriolet. Sun-loving CEOs who despise test-driving need look no further.
Scroll on below for a fully featured (with a running time of more than 20 minutes) comparison video. Harris does his best to entertain - in a typically nitpicky and made-up-British-words fashion - and the moving pictures are lovely to look at. Kick back, pour a pint and get your weekend started off right.

Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.

How Porsche got Patrick Dempsey into the driver's seat for Le Mans

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

How do you get to Carnegie Hall? Practice, practice, practice. Ask Patrick Dempsey and he'll likely tell you the same secret for landing a role on a hit TV show or, for that matter, driving a Porsche in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
That's because, like McQueen and Newman, Dempsey has earned his place in that rarified field of actors who also race. He's competed in Baja and Grand-Am, co-owns an IndyCar team, and this year returned to Le Mans where he and his teammates Joe Foster and Patrick Long finished fourth in the GTE-Am class behind the wheel of their Porsche 911 RSR.
It's a grueling race, and the fluid transition between drivers behind the wheel is a key element to success. Check out the satirical video below to see how Dempsey and company got ready.
