Up for auction is one 1979 Porsche 928 5 speed, very red, rescued about 18 months ago.  Affectionately referred to as an Old Bugger in the 928 community, it's a no sunroof, single mirror, early example of one of the great road cars of all time.



New:

- timing belt / water pump / rollers / tensioner rebuild
- fuel pump / filter
- warm up regulator (rebuilt)
- distributor cap / rotor / ignition leads / plugs
- brake pads / steel lines / ATE blue
- completely refreshed intake / silicon vacuum hoses / correct emissions / gaskets / elbow grease

- axle boots / grease / reversed
- CA catalytic converter
- Borla cat-back 
- rear carpet
- all fluids including fresh redline 75w90 ns in transmission
- 4 wheel alignment

This beauty just passed California emissions with some ultra clean numbers.  It has been repainted somewhere along the line, I'd call it fair to good otherwise.  The interior is really pretty good, the dash still needs some work.  Tires are 225 all around on the classic phone dials.  It's running really well and ready for a steady, daily driving, caretaker.  I have too many of these beasts and can't exercise them properly as it is.  I'd like to start another rescue, keep these remarkable automobiles on the road as long as possible.  If you've driven one you know what I mean.  If you haven't, you'll get it after your first 500 mile road trip.  This car is ready for the finishing touches.  The sound, on the gas, with the borla...  priceless.

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
