Too many projects for me to finish this beauty, restoration needs to be completed. It has been covered for the last 6 years and hasn't been driven on the road since then. The engine starts and runs but will start smoking after the engine warms up. I am pretty sure it is burning oil when it is smoking. The engine probably needs an overhaul. It will need to be towed, however, it will drive up on ramps and drive under its own power.


5 speed manual, side shift transmission 

1.8L 4 cylinder 

Twin Weber 40 IDF carbs (car was originally fuel injected, previous owner put these carbs on). Extra jets and carb parts and manuals come with

MSD Ignition

Targa Top

Interior is in decent shape, just needs a deep cleaning

Brake calipers have been rebuilt , new brake pads, new tires and new suspension, were all installed about 6 years ago but has only a few hundred miles on them.

New battery installed this month


I had painted the car  when I first got it about 6 years ago but shortly after I painted it, the temporary car port it was in collapsed onto the hood and top of the car, that is why there is brown primer on the hood and top. It didn't dent the car, just scratched the paint up. It appears that the middle part of the floorpan has been reinforced, see photos. The only rust through that I have seen is in the original battery compartment and rear trunk.


It comes with multiple boxes of extra parts, interior center console that needs to be finished, extra rear deck lid and repair manuals.


Mileage says 66,703 but I am sure it it 166,703 (only 5 digit odometer). Let me know if you have any questions or want additional photos.

Porsche 911 GT3 RS revealed in patent photos

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

Porsche has been taking its time developing the most hardcore 911 models for the latest 991 chassis. While the GT3 has been on the market for a little while, it suffered from some teething issues. The 911 GT3 RS is certainly on the radar since being spotted testing, but it's always better to get a look at a new car without all of the camo to hide the coolest parts. Thankfully, Car in the UK has some patent photos of the RS ahead of its debut, and they show off one mean-looking 911.
The first thing that you notice about the RS is that Porsche clearly isn't afraid to rework the latest 911's shape for its track-focused version. Each piece is slightly resculpted to squeeze the most out of it. Up front, the air dam has the same shape to the earlier photos. They also both highlight the upcoming model's tiny air inlet at the tip of the hood, the massive intakes in the rear fenders and general design of the rear wing with a ducktail underneath. The bubbled roof is much clearer here, where it was disguised in spy shots. You can also spot the slashing fender gills behind the front wheels that are a completely new feature.
The GT3 RS is the ultimate naturally aspirated 911 for the street, but according to Car, Porsche aims to take that even farther with the latest model. If these are the looks, then it's working. Unfortunately, the new version's powerplant remains a mystery. Though, given all the changes to the bodywork, the engine is almost surely getting tweaked over the 475-horsepower GT3. The RS is rumored to hit the road and be screaming down the track in 2015.

Chris Harris hits the track in the Porsche 911 GT3 RS

Sat, May 23 2015

One of the wonderful things about Chris Harris on Cars is the enthusiasm that the host brings to the screen. Granted, it would be hard not to enjoy a day driving around in a supercar that you don't own. Still, Harris brings a sense that he knows how rare these opportunities are and relishes them. In his latest look at the two sides of the latest Porsche 911 GT3 RS, you can tell this guy is having a lot of fun. The GT3 RS is a 500-horsepower, track-focused weapon, but it's expected to drive to and away from the circuit after a day of laps. Therefore, Harris decides to evaluate the attributes of this Porsche in both environments. On the road, he sweeps an orange example over some beautifully, undulating German backroads but keeps things rather tidy. However, in the latter half of the video, he arrives at the Weissach test track for a go in a purple RS. There, he really lets the rear hang out.

2015 Porsche Cayman GTS

Thu, 29 May 2014

The Porsche Boxster and Cayman will forever nip at the heels of their big brother, the 911 Carrera, and perpetuating this tradition are the latest GTS variants, which add yet another arrow to the quiver of the plucky mid-engined platform.
The GTS' performance enhancements boost horsepower by a mere 15 and shave a tenth from 0 to 60, but Porsche's clever product planners and engineers have stuck to their familiar formula in making the Cayman GTS more desirable than the Boxster for dyed-in-the-wool performance enthusiasts. More on that shortly.
Laps around Spain's Circuito Mallorca RennArena and the nearby Serra de Tramuntana mountain range would shed further light on how the GTS differentiates itself from lesser Caymans.
