Unique opportunity to complete your own Porsche restoration.  All of the hard work is done: disassembly, rust mitigation, body work and paint work.  The suspension has been repainted, new bushings installed, hardware re-plated and installed.  The balance of the project will be reassembly.  Almost every part has been rebuilt, refurbished or purchased new. I have all receipts for parts purchased and for the rebuilding or refurbishing of various systems.  For a pictorial narrative of our project please Google "Lunde Porsche Project".

Below is a list of work to date:

Body - Entire body stripped to bare metal by top-tier Porsche restoration shop here in Denver.  Front steering pan and battery box replaced with original Porsche stampings. Additionally, both floor pans replaced by drilling out over 200 spot welds and re-installing Porsche floor pans.  Body was stripped to bare metal and finished to a very high level.  Paint is original Pastel Blue as ordered from the factory.

Engine - Original engine disassembled and carefully packed in container. Needs complete rebuild.  A recently rebuilt 1969 912 motor is included with the purchase.  The 1969 motor has been inspected and verified as in excellent running condition by a factory trained Porsche mechanic.  Report included with purchase.    

Transmission - Original 4-speed is included with purchase but internal condition unknown.  A recently rebuilt 1967 5-speed is included with the purchase.  This transmission was sourced here in Denver from a local PCA member who had the unit professionally rebuilt prior to selling it to me.

Brakes - All four calipers have been rebuilt and painted.  Rotors are near new and within spec.  Braided stainless steel hoses are included.

Wheel & Tires - 6j x 15" Fuchs wheels in excellent, mildly refurbished condition are included.  Tires need to be replaced.

Pedal Cluster & Shifter linkage - Both systems have been completely rebuilt, including re-plating pedal assembly before re-assembly.

Gas Tank - Original gas tank shows no leaks but needs to be flushed and sealed.

Windshield & Other Glass - Purchaser will need to source a new windshield.  Side windows, quarter glass and rear glass are in very good condition.

Interior Vinyl - Headliner has been replaced with original German vinyl by well known interior restoration shop.  The balance of the interior parts, upper and lower dash, headliner, parcel shelf, rear seats, door panels, rear side panels are either in excellent original condition or have been refurbished (in German vinyl) by interior restoration shop with the exception of the seats.  The original vinyl seats need complete restoration but an outstanding pair of full leather 1973 911 seats are included with the purchase.

Instrumentation - All instruments, tach, speedo and multi-gauge, have been rebuilt by a VDO specialist.  The clock was cleaned but is not operable.

Miscellaneous - Original hard-to-find parts are present or have been sourced, such as the original break-away rear view mirror and rear quarter window latches.  Nearly every rubber, seal, grommet, gasket, decal, etc. has been recently purchased.  Two new Durrant mirrors, a new Hirchmann antenna, new drive axles, windshield washer motor and related check valves and hoses are included.  Door handles have been re-chromed and ready for re-assembly.  Nearly every original nut and bolt and micellaneous parts have been cleaned and professionally re-plated to factory original appearance.  All nuts and bolts have been sorted, labeled and bagged for ease of reassembly.

5 highlights from the 2018 Petersen Automotive Museum Auction

Fri, Nov 30 2018

From the avant garde exterior design to the collection of vehicles between the walls, the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles is one of the coolest car museums in the U.S., and possibly the world. Among several others, the Petersen has two featured exhibits, The Porsche Effect and Legends of L.A. But the museum has a different type of viewing coming up at which you could touch, or even buy, a variety of special vehicles. After hosting its SoCal auction on the coast in Santa Monica for several years, RM Sotheby's has moved the event to the more central location of the museum. In addition to several works of art, the auction which takes place the weekend of December 7, will show several dozens of blue-chip vehicles, chosen by RM Sotheby's 30 car specialists. After sorting through lots that range from microcars to new-age supercars, here are five of the highlights that caught our eyes. 1956 Ferrari 290 MM by Scaglietti Projected Value: $22,000,000-$26,000,000 Without question, this is the crown jewel of the entire show. As the eldest and most experienced of the 11 total Ferrari lots, its estimated value of $26 million is more than five times the values of the other five cars listed below combined. From the jump, Ferrari threw the 290 into the line of fire. Starting its life with a four-cylinder 860 Monza engine and a Tipo 520 chassis, its first race was the Mille Miglia. Peter Collins was behind the wheel and racing photographer Louis Klemantaski was his copilot. Ferrari took the top five spots in the race, with this car, chassis No. 0628, finishing second. It went on to see multiple races and took on multiple forms, including a V12 swap at one point. After switching through the hands of multiple owners, it was sent to Ferrari Classiche in Maranello, where it was restored to its form at the time of the 1957 12 Hours of Sebring. It retains its original chassis, original bodywork, and original transmission, and houses the V12 from its 290 MM spec. The restoration was completed in 2015, and the car remains in incredible shape today. 1971 Lamborghini Miura P400 SV by Bertone Projected Value: $2,100,000-$2,500,000 Simply put, the Miura is one of the most significant supercars, and therefore one of the most important cars, of all time. Its two-seat, mid-engined configuration seismically shifted what a performance could and should look like, and its V12 gave it the power to be the fastest car in the world when it debuted.
