Porsche 356b on 2040-cars
Simi Valley, California, United States
|
1963 Porsche 356B, matching numbers, runs, drives, and stops great. Bought from a guy that lived in Arizona and owned it 40 years, he restored it in 1974, painted it blue and put a blue interior in it, he told me the engine was a basket case and he rebuilt it with oem parts, at that time there was 28000 miles on speedo, so theres about 5k on motor, and the way it runs, drives, and sounds it makes sense. Have no proof of orginal mileage, could be 33k or 133k. i bought the car to fully restore, but with kid in college out of state, just dont have the funds. When i bought the car i ordered a C.O.A. from porsche, so it confirms the numbers matching. Car should be ivory/ 6204 white which is the color of dash, interior should be brown leather/H. eng # 609731, trans # 59700 (741/2A). car vin# is 212230. All lights, running lights, turn signal, horn tac, speedo work, the clock is not working, and the orginal blapunkt radio lights up when turned on but have no speakers so cant confirm its operational. The floors have been fiberglassed, on visual theres only a couple of spots that had small rust , nothing on vertical or longitude areas. so replacement floor panels will be easy fix. Body on car is straight, no dents, all body lines are straight and very nice. the paint is over 40 years old, and looks better in pics than it is. No carpet in car, does have orginal rubber mats. Mechanically the car is a great driver, will be an easy restoration project. please call bob with questions, 805 4056972

SoCal car culture bids farewell to an LA motoring landmark
Thu, Apr 28 2016It had a good run, but after 84 years, LA's iconic 6th Street Bridge is being torn down and replaced with a new structure. Magnus Walker gathered members of Southern California's legendary car culture to say goodbye. The East 6th Street bridge is just one of the hundred-plus spans that cross the Los Angeles River, built during the boom era of the 1930s, but it's among the most iconic. It spans the river and the rail yards from the industrial area to the West Side that's rapidly gentrifying as LA's Arts District. Unfortunately the concrete that was laid down way back in the 1932 is far beyond repair at this point. So after years of patchwork and tentative maintenance, the local authorities are taking it down and replacing it with a new bridge in a process that's expected to take four years. The destruction of the landmark is sad news for the people who have come to embrace it as one of the city's most memorable structures – people like Magnus Walker. The so-called Urban Outlaw, known as much for his offbeat style as he is for customizing Porsches, put out word to the tuner community that it was time to say goodbye to their beloved bridge, and out they came, looking like something straight out of a Fast & Furious movie. See how it all came together in this latest video from eGarage. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

NYT profiles Blue Nelson, a reclusive and interesting CA car collector
Thu, 25 Sep 2014If it weren't for his Dale Earnhardt Sr. looks, Blue Nelson could be one one of those soft-spoken, nondescript guys whom you meet briefly and never learn much more about. However, as The New York Times shows in a recent profile and video, behind closed doors, Nelson keeps a fascinatingly eclectic collection of automotive oddities and vintage bicycles.
While his main career is in the movie industry, Nelson's other job is as a car hunter. He takes on clients searching for a specific model and helps them find and restore the dream vehicle that they're after. Hiring him takes some dedication, though, because Nelson doesn't advertise his services. "If people want to find me, they know how to find me," he says in the video.
Beyond being an automotive private detective, Nelson has a fantastically varied collection of vehicles of his own. He likes to have models that people don't usually see, and his garage holds a classic Chrysler New Yorker and an extremely rare Rometsch convertible. Although, the one that means the most to him is the 1962 Porsche 356 convertible that Blue came home in as a baby. Check out the video to learn more about Nelson and his philosophy about forming a bond with a car.
Ken Block's Gymkhana 8 to feature Dubai Police cars?
Tue, Feb 23 2016Yesterday we showed you the shiny Ford Fiesta that Ken Block will slide, spin, and hoon through the next Gymkhana video. In case the image above isn't clear, that video will drop at midnight EST on February 30th on the Ford Performance YouTube channel. We don't know all the entire premise of the video yet, but this Tweet from the man himself reveals that the video will be set in Dubai. Block is standing on the Fiesta we saw yesterday, and arrayed behind him are a handful of those famous Dubai Police cars you're probably familiar with. The force has a fleet of sportscars and supercars, and the purpose is outreach and goodwill among its citizenry, not necessarily the pursuit of criminals. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings. From left to right, we can see a Maserati GranTurismo, Porsche 911, what looks to be a Nissan GT-R obscured by Block's Fiesta, a McLaren (likely a 650S), Ford Mustang, and a Ferrari 599 of some ilk. Will they take part? Maybe Block will try and run from what might be the most horsepower-intensive police fleet in the world. We'll have answers (and a few minutes of pure Block hooniganism) in a few days. Related Video:
