The goal was to create a tribute of the 1970 porsche 914-6 GT competition car #2 campaigned by Miles Collier that finished 1.2.3 at the Nurburing endurance race.
The car is spot on down to the paint scheme and authentic decals. This car is a real head tuner.

The signal orange PPG paint is flawless. It ought to be it cost over$10,000.00. Yes , $10,000 the paint materials alone were $2000 not to mention the hours and hours of body work necessary to create this gorgeous car. 

The  Fuch style wheels really give the car that classic Porshce racer look. 

The front suspension was taken from a 1973 911 (control arms, spindles, steering rack, boge struts,911 'A' calipers ,and 911 5 lug hubs. The rear suspension has upgraded Koni shocks with 930 CV's and 911 half shafts, and converted 5 lug hubs with wheel studs. The car has the right looks..

The body work is flawless. A lot of hours went into the preparation for the fiberglass and paint work. You won't be disappointed. The fiberglass GT flares have been grafted on to the car with an attention to detail The front fiberglass bumper and valance resemble the #2 nurburgring car with its teutonic paint scheme. The rear fiberglass bumper and stock valence round out the no nonsense look from behind. The flares are finished off with flared fiberglass rocker panel covers to finish out the gt look.

Inside the car is all business.  Once seated you grip the period correct  early 911 leather bound steering wheel and grip the walnut shift knob of the original dog legged 901 side shift
transmission. The black and blue coco mats and stock black 914 buckets round off the stark interior which is painted body color. 

The drive train is the reliable stock 914-4 engine and transmission. The car has a 1.7L 4 cylinder with original D-Jet fuel injection. The car starts up every time.
The transmission was converted from tail shift to the upgraded side shift model 901. The shifter is dialed in and shifts as well as can be. The brakes are rebuilt porsche 911 A-calipers up front with new vented rotors. The rear calipers are stock 914 rears with integrated parking brake. The car has stock stainless heat exchangers with stock muffler. 

The 914 is notorious for rust and this one was an original east coast car. The previous owner completed the rust repair which consisted of hellhole repair and 
outer longintudinals (rockers), new battery mount with restoration designs parts.

The car drives really well. The 1.7 starts right up and is surprisingly peppy. Once you hit the twisties you'll understand why the 914 is considered the 'kurve meister'
The car can be converted back to a more stock appearance by removing the decals. It can also be upgraded to a vintage racer or DE for under 2 liter historic racer class by adding a roll cage and fuel cell.

Another car has caught my attention hence the sale.  I am offering this car for sale elsewhere so the auction is subject to prior sale. Just took the car on a 200 mile run this past weekend  The car ran like a champ.  Please contact seller prior to bidding if you have questions about the vehicle. Don't let this one get away.

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.

Take a POV hot lap in the Porsche 918 Spyder

Mon, 14 Apr 2014

That title about says it all. This is a hot lap of the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX, with Porsche Works Driver Patrick Long at the wheel of a Porsche 918 Spyder. The camera is basically showing us everything that Long sees, making this not just one of the coolest 918 videos we've seen, but also one of the neatest laps of CoTA.
As Long peers through the bends, so will you. You'll see him fight the wheel, and find out just how difficult it is to hustle this hybrid hypercar around a world-class track at speed. It's pretty darn entertaining. There are also a few scattered shots of the 918's exterior just to break up the interior awesomeness, although we aren't exactly complaining about those. Take a look below for the short video from Porsche.
