I am selling my 1970 Porsche 914 with many extra parts. It has very little rust, just a few spots on the floor pans which has been covered with POR-15 and reinforcing mesh. The rolling chassis came from California. When I got it I stripped down the interior, engine compartment, and RR trunk to bare metal and painted with POR-15 (Did not do the front trunk yet). The hell hole and longs have no rust. The battery tray was rusted, so I removed it and relocated the battery to the RR trunk. It has a 1.7 liter motor (not original) with weber carbs and has been upgraded to a later side shift transmission. The transmission was rebuilt a couple years ago and works well (just needs a very slight shifter adjustment). The distributor has been upgraded to a unilite electronic unit with an MSD 6A box. The engine runs well most of the time, but has an intermittent rough running issue. I believe it is something in the fuel system causing it to run lean, likely the fuel pump. I have a brand new, unopened carb fuel pump and filter that will come with it. The interior is OK, but does need some work. The passenger side window needs installed (everything comes with it) and the driver side needs adjusted. The entire car could use a new paint job or fix the one it has. There are a lot of scratches and the clear coat that the previous owner sprayed on is full of runs. The bumpers are aftermarket fiber glass ones molded to look like OEM. The targa top needs painted. The key only works in the ignition and passenger door, the rest need rekeyed. The trunk has an electric opener instead of a key. Almost new Kumho Ecsta AST tires (less than 500 miles on them). There are a lot of little things that need done on the car, but it is a very good starting point and comes with a ton of extra parts.
There are far too many extra parts to list them all (I had 2 parts cars), but I will list the bigger ones: 2.0 liter engine (minus heads) that needs rebuilt; Tail shift transmission case with some internals; Original 1.7 liter fuel injection system; Brand new unopened carb fuel pump w/ filter; Full extra set of suspension; 2.0 liter muffler; Set of 5-lug adaptors; Many unopened new parts; 2 Italian made Weber 40 IDF carbs that need rebuilt; The 3 shelving units in the pictures are full of the extra parts, plus there are many not shown or listed. Overall the car is in pretty good condition, just needs someone who wants to finish the project I started. I want to sell everything together as a package deal with local pick up only. The car is sold AS IS and the buyer assumes all responsibility. Ask any questions before bidding. Feel free to email me if you want to come look at it before bidding. I reserve the right to end the listing at any time if the vehicle sells separately. |

Porsche 911 celebrates 50 years of iconic motoring
Tue, 10 Sep 2013Back in 1963, Porsche debuted the very first 911 at the Frankfurt Motor Show. And over the last 50 years, that coupe has grown to become one of the most iconic sports cars of all time. That in mind, you could easily chalk up this 50th Anniversary model as just one of the many special edition 911s that have graced our roads over the years, but dig a bit deeper and you'll see that this one is far more than just some unique paint and different wheels.
For starters, the 911 50th Anniversary Edition utilizes the wider Carrera 4/4S body, but retains its standard rear-wheel-drive configuration. Power comes from the Carrera S' 3.8-liter flat-six engine, but features a Powerkit upgrade that includes the Sport Chrono package and ups overall output to 400 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque. Hitting 60 miles per hour takes just 3.8 seconds if the car is fitted with Porsche's dual-clutch PDK gearbox, or 4.2 seconds if you choose the row-your-own seven-speed manual. Talk about going Over The Hill with a quickness.
Despite looking pretty tame, we're really hot on the appearance of this special 911, with its throwback flat gray paint job and new 20-inch wheels that look remarkably similar to the original Fuchs alloys of the 1963 model. Inside, you'll find green lettering on the instrument displays, white pointer needles and silver accents, and the leather seats have a fabric insert that's similar to the Pepita cloth from the original 911.
Here are this year's top 5 automaker April Fools’ jokes
Mon, Apr 2 2018April 1 is the wonderful day when PR departments really push themselves to top the zany jokes they came up with the previous year. And it's not just fast-food chains competing with each other, or breweries announcing they have released stuff like a fermented herring flavored beer: carmakers' media teams rarely miss out on the opportunity to play a little joke on their audience. Here are a few of our favorites from this year:1) Porsche Porsche announced that it's launching a Mission E tractor, styled to resemble its 1950s tractor models. "With a power output in excess of 700hp, the Mission E Tractor will be the fastest accelerating agricultural vehicle in the world, enabling farmers to harvest crops in record time with the added environmental benefits of zero emissions at source and significantly reduced operating noise."2) Lexus Lexus actually jumped the gun, telling us on March 28 that it's combining cars and drivers using DNA matching. The kicker was that with DNA-matched cars, owners would be able to start their Lexuses by licking the steering wheel.3) McLaren Automotive McLaren said it's boosting efficiency by quite eccentric measures, such as measuring the technology center's lake and floor tiles daily, and by synchronizing the staff's tea breaks.4) BMW Motorrad BMW's motorcycle arm is solving parts availability issues in remote locations by offering a 3D printer mounted permanently on the bike's rack: If you need to replace a broken-off gear lever, you can just print one. "The new system will mean that even very rarely required parts not generally stocked by BMW Motorrad sales partners can be supplied on a just-in-time basis." BMW even went to the lengths of announcing that the "BMW Motorrad iPart 3D Mobile Printer" was tested on the Antarctic, by erecting a tent whose poles were produced onsite.5) Honda Last but not least, Honda UK purportedly cut the roof off a new CR-V, calling it the CR-V Roadster. Tellingly, no convertible top was even offered for the concept, "making it a no-top rather than a drop-top. This innovative design makes it a vehicle purely for sunnier climates and therefore completely useless for the two-day British summer which traditionally occurs in May."Related Video: Featured Gallery Top 5 April Fools 2018 Image Credit: Porsche Green Humor Weird Car News BMW Honda Lexus McLaren Porsche bmw motorrad mclaren automotive
Recharge Wrap-up: Lucky fan to drive Porsche 918 Spyder, Avis Denmark has 861 Nissan EVs
Fri, May 1 2015A Tesla Model S customer shares his story of ownership over the course of 120,000 miles. Dante Richardson describes new software updates as being akin to anticipating the prize in a box of Cracker Jacks. Over the many miles he's driven the car, he has only learned to enjoy it more. "I don't know if it's the software updates or some of the other changes that have occurred with the car, but I find myself increasingly enamored and happy with the car as time has passed," Richardson says. His Volvo C70, in the meantime, usually sits idle as he opts to drive the Tesla. Read more at Tesla's website. A Facebook fan from Austria has won the opportunity to drive the Porsche 918 Spyder more than 622 miles. As part of a celebration for Porsche accumulating 10 million likes on the social media platform, Ingo Georges Vandenberghe will drive from London to the Porsche Experience Centre at Silverstone, via Wales and the Cotswolds, stopping occasionally to have other fans meet up to see and sign the car. It's a rare opportunity for the lucky driver, as every example of the high-performance Porsche hybrid has been sold. Read more at Hybrid Cars, and learn more about the celebration at Porsche's microsite. Avis Denmark now has the largest fleet of Nissan electric vehicles in Europe. The company has ordered 401 new Nissan e-NV200 vans and 60 Nissan Leafs for its leasing scheme. This is in addition to the 400 Leafs the Avis added to its fleet last year. "We had great success already with the Nissan Leaf in Denmark and we leased all of the units we purchased from Nissan very quickly, which has led to us ordering more," says Kasper Gjedsted, managing director of Avis Denmark. "To follow up that success we have decided to add the e-NV200 vehicle to broaden our offering and appeal to new types of customers." Read more in the press release below.
