auction, I will send a link to more pictures if you send me a request. Thanks.

1975 Porsche 911S, $11,684.77 spent on mechanical restoration 437 miles ago. (08/2006)
Please read the FULL story about this great car and email with additional questions. The car 
was purchased in mid 2006 for $17,500, ( overpaid IMO ) the car was located in 
Los Angeles and the buyer had the car shipped to the east coast. Upon arrival, the 
car was send to Eurosport Porsche in Virginia Beach,Va for service. The buyer wanted
 this car to be a reliable daily driver. Eurosport was given an open checkbook, they treated
 the car like an airplane, they fixed mechanical issues before they occurred and corrected the known
problems upon post purchase inspection. Please see the detailed paperwork on repairs performed. 
I can email the documents directly if my * link does not work. The car was then scheduled for cosmetic
work and the repair of a rusty battery area/ front pan. The owner also wanted to do a color change back 
to the original color which is a darker tan/brown. I agree with that course of action since originality is very
important to the value of these cars. After the $11k mechanical work, The car logged 437 miles over the course 
of the next 11 months. The owner parked the car in the garage 08/2007 and never touched it again. He said the car hurt 
his back and he did not enjoy owning the car as much as he imagined he would. Probably because he was $30,000
into a car that still needed a ride to the body shop. In the 2013 the car moved from the garage to the driveway 
where it sat for six months under a cover. I purchased the car as you see it, the only thing I have done was drain
the fuel and try to crank it up. The car has no spark or power from the cdi box. I bought a used cdi perma-tune
from someone on rennlist and it will be included in the sale. The car will need another trip to the garage since it has
been sitting for almost 7 years, however, this car has a great deal of mechanical potential and will easily be rock
solid again. I am not a mechanic. I am a Porschephile. I currently own several 911`s and one 930. I love this car
but I need to pay down some medical bills our growing little family has incurred. We have 22 month old twin boys
and my mindset and spending habits are evolving, I must sell this car. By the way, I finally found two humans who are
very content in the backseat of a vintage 911. Thank you so much for looking,  save my seller name as I may be
selling some 911 Porsche parts and perhaps my 1973 911 project.

wheel is not original and needs recovering, etc.

 When I buy a car, I want full disclosure. I sell cars with the same mindset.
I have owned more than 20 911`s, I have had some real sexy cars that ended
up having three pounds of body filler throughout the car and poor rust repairs
that grew like mushrooms in spring. I want the buyer to look at the pictures
carefully, make an assessment, ask questions and then bid accordingly.
The only bondo I could find is on the deck lid. I want the buyer to be happy
with purchase, please don`t expect a perfect car and understand that I am
selling a car made in 04/1975. You may encounter a problem which I have 
not discovered, however, I expect my assessment to be accurate based on
 previous transactions and general knowledge of aircooled 911`s. I would
rather scare away a few people and end up with a happy buyer than have
someone contact me two months after the sale with hurt feelings.  AS-IS.



Export Friendly Seller: 
I have extensive cargo and automotive export experience. 
My cars have gone to Italia, Bulgaria, Russia, Asia, Germany, UK etc.
I can ship ANY CAR worldwide. I live near a port city, please contact me
if you have any export questions or if you want a "rough" estimate for
the shipping expense. Buyer pays for all shipping expenses directly to
the shipping company. If you have a question about shipping this or any
other car from the U.S please send me a message.

Thanks for the interest, I tried to provide the most accurate estimates for International Shipping. The cost of shipping overseas will be relatively inexpensive

for a variety of reasons. #1 the car is located within 12 miles of NIT Port of Virginia, #2 I personally secure the car within a 20ft container for safe transit, #3 I submit all required documents to U.S Customs for export to avoid additional third party fee`s. I hope this is a good generic answer to questions or concerns from overseas buyers. Best regards,Bruce.

VW may move production because of Russia's cutoff of natural gas

Sun, Sep 25 2022

Volkswagen AG is exploring ways to counter a shortage in natural gas, including shifting production around its network of global facilities, signaling how the energy crisis unleashed by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens to upend EuropeÂ’s industrial landscape. Volkswagen, EuropeÂ’s biggest carmaker, said Thursday that reallocating some of its production was one of the options available in the medium term if gas shortages last much beyond this winter. The company has major factories in Germany, the Czech Republic and Slovakia, which are among European countries most reliant on Russian gas, as well as facilities in southern Europe that source energy from elsewhere. “As mid-term alternatives, we are focusing on greater localization, relocation of manufacturing capacity, or technical alternatives, similar to what is already common practice in the context of challenges related to semiconductor shortages and other recent supply chain disruptions,” Geng Wu, VolkswagenÂ’s head of purchasing, said in a statement.  RussiaÂ’s decision to throttle gas supplies to Europe has raised concerns that Germany might be forced to ration its fuel. Recent news that gas storage levels hit 90% ahead of schedule has soothed fears of acute shortages this winter, but Germany faces a challenge in replenishing depleted reserves next summer without contributions from Russia. Southwestern Europe or coastal zones of northern Europe, both of which have better access to seaborne liquefied natural gas cargoes, could be the beneficiaries of any production shift, a Volkswagen spokesman said by phone. The Volkswagen group already operates car factories in Portugal, Spain and Belgium, countries that host LNG terminals. Labor hurdles To be sure, any major production shift away from EuropeÂ’s biggest economy would face significant hurdles. VW has some 295,000 employees in Germany and worker representatives account for around half the companyÂ’s 20-member supervisory board. Any shift in production would likely involve a limited number of vehicles rather than wholesale factory shutdowns. While gas supplies for VWÂ’s plants are currently secured, the company has identified potential savings at its European sites to cut gas consumption by a “mid-double-digit percentage,” said Michael Heinemann, managing director of VWÂ’s power-plant unit. Still, the carmaker said it was concerned about the effect high gas prices could have on its suppliers.

Audi rumored to leave top-tier endurance racing after 2017

Fri, Oct 14 2016

Volkswagen's ongoing diesel scandal is turning out to be an expensive problem for the German automaker. With a recent settlement expected to cost the company up to $14.7 billion, the company is scrambling to find ways to save cash. In light of this, Audi could be pulling out of the highest class of endurance racing, which it has dominated for years. A report from Germany's Auto Motor und Sport, indicates that Audi has already finalized the automaker's departure from the World Endurance Championship's top-tier LMP1 class after the 2017 season. Another report by Autocar cites an unnamed insider to corroborate the LMP1 exit rumors. The report fingers the VW Group's ongoing diesel scandal's financial fallout as the main culprit for Audi bowing out of LMP1. The move to could also be due to the group's decision to move away from diesel technology. Audi's LMP1 car, the R18, utilizes a V6 turbo-diesel engine. The Porsche 919 Hybrid, on the other hand, uses 2.0-liter turbocharged V4 engine that runs on gasoline. Audi has won the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans 13 times since 1999, making Audi an unstoppable force in endurance racing. Porsche, Audi's corporate sibling, reentered endurance racing with a LMP1 competitor of its own in 2014 and won the constructor's championship last year. Audi's decision to leave LMP1 could give Porsche a shot at creating its own Le Mans-winning dynasty. Autocar reports that Audi is expected to continue fielding cars in other WEC classes, like GT3 and GT4, and perhaps the brand will even enter Formula E. We reached out to Audi for some clarification on the matter and a spokesperson stated that the rumors were "pure speculation at this point."

Porsche rolls out new 919 Hybrid at racing gala

Mon, 16 Dec 2013

That Porsche is returning to Le Mans next year with a top-tier LMP1 entry is no news - we've known that for some time. We've even seen pictures of the car in question undergoing testing at various racetracks across Europe, been told who'll be driving it and given some basic parameters of what will make it go. We just haven't known what to call it, but now we do.
In detailing its full endurance racing program for next year at its Night of Champions in Weissach, Porsche has revealed that its new LMP1 racecar will be called the 919 Hybrid. So, something like the 918 Spyder, only one faster. With a four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors, the 919 Hybrid will be taking on the top class at Le Mans next year, with a compelling roster of drivers on the docket: along with Mark Webber, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani, Porsche has assigned its works driver Marc Lieb and F1 test driver Brendon Hartley to the effort. But that's not all Porsche has in store.
The factory is also supporting teams that will campaign the 911 RSR in the FIA World Endurance Championship as well as the United SportsCar Championship here in the US, taking Porsche off the pit wall and right in the race seat for next year as part of a comprehensive new racing program, details of which you can read in the press release below.
