1957 all original 356A coupe started as a completely stock solid road car that has been modified in to a vintage race car. This car has a VSCCA log book and has raced in HSR, SCCA and VRG. The car is a turn-key, ready to go racing this weekend.

The motor was built by 356 specialist Vic Skirmants. It is a fresh motor with no races on it (has been run to verify good oil pressure, no oil leaks, etc). The engine is set up to run Zenith carburetors and has dual oil coolers in the front of the car. The transmission is also Skirmants built with modified 2nd gear (and subsequent elimination of 1st gear) and Quaife limited slip. This is a best setup for road racing. A street transmission is also available and can be installed if you would prefer that. The Skirmants transmission cannot really be driven on the street because of the lack of 1st gear. The car will come with one transmission, one or the other but not both. Please be in contact with me once the auction is over.

The car has been fully race safety certified which means the front suspension has been reinforced, a roll bar installed, a full cell installed and a battery cut off system. The car also features a racing seat, safety belts and quick disconnect steering wheel. 

The floor, longitudinals, battery box and interior of the car are solid and have no rust or damage. All of the windows are Plexiglas with the exception of the windshield. Over 50 pictures available to view here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/97237189@N04/

The car has the original VIN and I have a clear Pennsylvania title in hand, it is titled as the original 1957 Porsche 356. Chassis #58903. This car can be titled and registered for the street if you so choose. Please email with any questions or if you would like to see the car. EuroMotors @ verizon.net   The car is located in the Reading, PA area.

Buyer will arrange own shipping or pick up. Winning bidder is required to pay a $1,000 deposit within 24 hours of auction end (overnight cashiers check, certified check or bank wire transfer. U.S. funds only); and the balance will be due within 7 days after the auction is over. Bidders with less than 10 feedbacks must contact me before bidding. I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. Thank you.

Drive-up bank robbery perpetrated with Cayenne and WRX

Sat, 14 Sep 2013

Thieves carried out what appears to be a movie-script-perfect robbery of a bank in Sydney, Australia early on Friday morning, using two stolen high-performance vehicles in the process.
At around 11:15 AM local time, in near mid-day light, reports say that two men in masks smashed into the side of a Westpac bank in a confirmed-stolen black Porsche Cayenne. The perpetrators were armed with sledgehammers according to witness reports, and took only about five minutes to take what they were after inside of the bank.
The rapid getaway was executed in a Subaru WRX, also confirmed as a stolen vehicle, while witnesses snapped camera phone images of the illicit goings on. One Twitter user posted a few of the images to his social media feed; you can take a look at them in our small gallery below. Follow on down for the full video report, from The Sydney Morning Herald.

Porsche Cayenne spied unconstrained by camouflage

Thu, 05 Jun 2014

Meet the facelifted Porsche Cayenne. Our eagle-eyed spy shooters captured this example of Porsche's freshened SUV virtually devoid of camo, giving us our clearest look yet at what the eventual mid-cycle work will do to the strong-selling Cayenne.
The overall changes do, indeed, look minor, with a reprofiled intake being the most obvious item. The headlights are still covered, so we don't know what kind of jeweling has been done, but the shape does appear identical to the current model. Overall, the changes appear totally in line with a mid-cycle refresh.
As we explained previously, a plug-in Cayenne is on the way. It will join a crop of engines that is likely to be similar to what's on offer today, with naturally aspirated, turbocharged, hybrid and diesel variants released over time.

Porsche reveals new LMP1 racecar testing ahead of 2014 Le Mans debut

Wed, 12 Jun 2013

Getting ready for its triumphant return to the premier racing class of Le Mans, Porsche has released a handful of images showing its new LMP1 racecar testing. Porsche hasn't run a car in the Prototype class at 24 Hours of Le Mans since 2009, but this racecar - still veiled in secrecy - will be expected to battle against the Audi and Toyota LMP1 Prototypes to help bring Porsche its 17th Le Mans victory.
Aside from knowing that it will use a hybrid powertrain to meet LMP1 rules, there are no other details about the car... including its name or potential sponsors. In the meantime, Porsche has set up a microsite, called Mission 2014, to share its extensive history racing at Le Mans. Also, be sure to check out some of the past videos Porsche has released as it gears up for its reborn LMP1 program.
