Porsche 911L

For sale is my matching number Porsche 911L which I purchased in July 2013 with the intention of restoring to original spec. I have been busy with other projects. If the car does not sell I will probably restore it at some point this year.

This is a very interesting car. As many of you may know. The L model was a one year production. In a nutshell the L was equipped with the European S specs (not available in the US) but with a 130 hp engine. This is also the last year of the short wheel base “SWB” 911.

This 911 L has a good and healthy 2.0 L engine with matching numbers to the car. Engine No. 3281498, Vin No. 11805417.

Driver side carburetor assembly serviced and repaired and the timing on the distributor adjusted, there are some normal oil leaks on the engine, nothing out of the usual on these air cooled engines. The clutch needs to be replaced and possibly the transmission needs to be serviced as well. Change between the gears is hard and doesn't work well while downshifting, possibly pointing to a bad clutch. Brakes were sticking and the calipers serviced to allow the car to be driveable. Suspension components are in good condition as well as the electrical system with a good working alternation and ignition. All instruments work as well. I would suggest replacing the tires since the ones on the car are old and expired. The interior is in very good condition and with minimum investment can be put in beautiful condition. The headliner needs to be completely

replaced.

The body presents corrosion on both rear quarter panels, front floor panel and front fenders. The car feels very solid while driving. The paint needs to be completely redone. Original color Code is 6805 - Bahama Yellow.

This car is being sold as is with no warranty implied. I have described this car as accurately as I could, and to the best of my knowledge. Buyer will be responsible for all taxes, duties and license fees in order to export the car or to register it anywhere in the world. Do not hesitate to email if you have any further questions or need more information .

Porsche Supercup racer dies in crash in Australia

Tue, 15 Oct 2013

Even with great strides made towards increasing the safety of motor racing, fundamentally it's still a dangerous sport. And now it has claimed another life.
That life belonged to one Sean Edwards, an accomplished GT racing driver. Edwards was killed at Queensland Raceway in Australia, riding shotgun in a Porsche 996 GT3 while acting as instructor. The driver was airlifted to hospital with critical injuries. Sean Edwards was 26.
The son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards (whose car he drove in the filming of Rush), Sean won the European GT3 Championship in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to repeat victories at the 24 Hours of Dubai as well as this year's Nürburgring 24 Hours. Edwards had been competing in the Porsche Supercup, whose standings he currently leads with just two rounds to go, and could be crowned champion posthumously.

Topiary Joe sculpts the ultimate in green cars

Sat, Mar 15 2014

Efficient cars are all the rage these days, but Joe Kyte has made a business of crafting some of the coolest green cars around – literally. Kyte is better known by his nickname Topiary Joe, and in addition to being a talented artist, he is also a real gearhead. Kyte has been creating topiaries for the last 20 years. It began when he was marketing greenhouse products to Walt Disney World and saw their plant sculptures. He realized that he could do that and since then, has done around 3,400 pieces. His most intriguing creations are the rolling sculptures that move and turn. Prices for those start at about $18,000 and can be as high as $30,000. While, the wheels are machine-bent, Kyte said all the other parts are done with a table vice and a Lincoln Electric arc welder. Topiary Joe is taking the Porsche (pictured above) to Palm Beach later this year to sell or says he may donate it to Porsche North America. If you really want it, the sculpture is currently on Craigslist for sale for $24,000. Topiary Joe has also had a life-long love of cars. "I was driving my first MG Midget before I was 14," he told Autoblog. He grew up in Oak Ridge, TN, where the Manhattan Project was partially developed. He says the town was full of recent college grads driving Mercedes, and he caught the bug. His automotive mentor was a nuclear physicist who taught him to repair and restore the Mercs. Kyte has completed commissions for Sandals Resort, Dreamworks, Absolut, and many more. Among his favorite creations is the Ferrari that he created at the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix that is now exhibited at the airport each year before the race. Check out his website for a wider look at his work.

Why you must buy an air-cooled Porsche 911 now

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

"Because" might be a good response to our headline, but as a vintage (purists might call 'proper') Porsche 911 is hardly cheap, we suspect you'll need a better explanation than that. Enter Drive editor Mike Spinelli.
Spinelli sits down with Zac Moseley and Mick Prichinello from Classic Car Club Manhattan to first explain why the market for old, air-cooled 911s has gotten so hot over the past few years, and to discuss if it's a bubble that's about to burst. Following that, this video is really is just three guys sitting around talking about old Porsches for 35 minutes. Which, you know, we're pretty onboard with.
Scroll down and have a look at the latest episode of After/Drive, from Drive.
