    Offering my 1968 Porsche 912 coupe, a very presentable driver. The car has recent Weber carbs, bosch premium starter and generator, new battery and electric fuel pump.Also has electronic distributor (the original goes with the car). The exhaust is an Ansi and sounds nice.  All the electrics work,but the clock is wacky .The car drives very well-a few caveats- the first gear synchro is shot, so you have to be stopped to downshift to 1st. The car can pull from a crawl in 2nd with no problem. Brakes and steering are good, tires are 75% Kumhos. The e brake is not functional, as one cable is broken. I am trying to get one and should have it fixed. The car leaks a bit (as is pretty common) but not horribly. 

   The car looks awesome from 20 feet, but there are numerous flaws in the paint and trim. Still , for a 45 year old car, it is very sharp. The interior is very good with 1 tiny cracked area (1 1/2 ") in the driver seat bolster. The rest of the seats and headrests are very good. The only rust I have found is in the front pan, and it was repaired by a previous owner and appears sound. It should be attended to at some point, but it drives fine as is, The part is about $300. The area of the floor under the pedals looks crusty from below, but is structurally sound, shows no weakness. the rest of the pans appear to be very solid. I believe the pans are original. Also the edge of the windshield is fogged ( about 2" )
   I will answer any questions I can about the car as honestly as possible, however buyers are encouraged to inspect before bidding. The car is sold with no warantee and is sold AS IS. It is a 45 year old  car .  
   Thanks for looking,

KBB 2013 Brand Image Awards has some obvious and oddball winners

Sat, 30 Mar 2013

The sixth edition of the Kelley Blue Book Brand Image Awards have crowned a wide range of winners - in a couple of cases the recipient of the laurels might say more about KBB users than they do about the actual winner. Compiled from the responses of more than 12,000 shoppers on KBB.com over the past year, there are 13 categories broken into non-luxury, luxury and truck segments "representing the combined wisdom of the American car-buying public."
The award categories have been revamped this year, with some dropping off, some new ones appearing and at least one other given a new term. What isn't surprising is that Honda won Most Trusted Brand for the second year running, Best Value Brand for the third year in a row and took Best Overall Brand, which wasn't on last year's list of awards.
On our own shores, in the non-luxury categories Chrysler got Most Refined Brand and Buick took Best Value Luxury Brand. Neither one of those marques won anything in last year's Brand Image Awards, while Cadillac, which won Best Interior Design Brand and Best Comfort Brand last year - those awards disappeared this year - went home without a single accolade.

Porsche planning new 911 Speedster as 550 tribute

Tue, 12 Nov 2013

Some look at the emergence of a new Porsche 911 and see a car. But to Porsche engineers, it might as well be a reset button. Because every time a new 911 comes out, it sets off a tidal wave of new variants to follow, including convertibles, turbos, targas, GT3s... the works.
The next down the pipeline, though, could be one of the most desirable. That, according to German publication Auto Bild, will be a new 911 Speedster. When it arrives early in 2015, the special roadster will reportedly be limited to just 550 examples in tribute to the original 550 Spyder.
It'll reportedly have hidden door handles, a chopped-down windshield and a fabric top to be used only in case of emergency, manually disappearing below a carbon-fiber cowling. All of which makes it sounds as much like a bigger version of the Boxster Spyder as a successor to the last 911 Speedster (pictured above), and that's no bad thing at all.

Top Gear's latest trailer shows off a golden Bugatti Chiron

Thu, Feb 23 2017

Top Gear is returning on March 5, and after a lackluster first series with the new hosts, the new group seems determined not to hit a sophomore slump. Chris Evans is gone, and the latest teaser trailer shows the new trio of Matt LeBlanc, Chris Harris, and Rory Reid strapped into some pretty fantastic cars, including the Bugatti Chiron and the Ford GT. All of the typical Top Gear segments appear to be present, though the quick cuts don't give us many details. The trailer shows a copious amount of powerslides from an assortment of cars, and even Chris Harris racing around Daytona. Aside from the Bugatti and Ford, cars from Porsche, Lamborghini, Ferrari, BMW, Aston Martin, and Alfa Romeo are all present. Co-hosts Eddie Jordan and Sabine Schmitz don't appear at all, so it seems their roles may be downplayed to focus on three guys, as was the case pre-reboot. We have some hope for this re-relaunched show and will be keeping an eye out for more details in the lead-up to the series premiere.
