1975 Porsche 914 Project Car
This California car was found at an estate sale in Palm Springs. It has keys but does not have a title, it will be sold on a bill of sale only. The previous owner was in the car business all of his life and this was one of his last project cars. The Porsche 914 is exceptionally straight and having been under it I believe it to be a no hit car. The car has had one repaint in its original yellow. It wasn't the greatest job, but it certainly is passable. The Porsche 914 is very complete and comes with some hard to find and expensive parts. I believe that almost all of the parts to finish the project are there. The engine looks to have been recently done, but I have no way of proving that other than by the looks of it. Based on some of the badging that was found I believe this to be the 1.8 liter engine. The seats underneath the covers shown in the picture are in good shape, with the driver's side having one split seam. The odometer shows 3,404 miles, I'm guessing it's really 103,404 miles. From the looks of things, I believe that to be accurate. The car has been sitting for a long while. But it rolls freely. You will have to tow it home. As you can see from the pictures this is a blue CA plate car. There is minimal surface rust but no rust issues. The glass is all original. The body panels are all original. If you're looking for an easy project and for a car that will do nothing but appreciate this is your car. I'm asking a fair market value price of $4,500 but am open to offers. Please call Tom at 619-807-8770 or email. Please do not text this number. |

Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines
Wed, 19 Mar 2014About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.
Supercar parade entering highway is mesmerizing
Thu, 09 May 2013In what must have looked and sounded to motorists on the M6 like an invasion of The Swarm, a parade of 50 enthusiast gems leaving a charity event were caught shooting down the on-ramp and merging into traffic. There were plenty of Porsches joining the 959 and Ducktail above, Aston Martins going back to the badboy V8 of the last millennium, a Ferrari Testarossa, a TVR and numerous other Easter eggs.
There were not, however, plenty of turn signals, with someone counting just five among the fifty engaging in proper use of the blinker. One reason put forth for that is the same reason we're posting this video, which is from last Summer, below: "because supercar." Enjoy.
Watch onboard video of the Porsche 918 Spyder's record 'Ring lap
Tue, 10 Sep 2013"Pics or it didn't happen!" You could almost hear the Internet shouting this when news started to trickle in about a sub-seven-minute Nürburgring lap by the new Porsche 918 Spyder. Well, after an official press release, which we ran earlier today, we have your "pics." Moving pics, to be more exact. Porsche has released on-board footage of the 6:57 lap.
The video, which runs about eight-and-a-half minutes, and shows the 918 from inside the car on a flying lap of the German track. Perhaps what's remarkable is just how undramatic it all looks. Sure, there's some sawing at the wheel from test driver Marc Lieb (one of three testers, including legendary rally king Walter Röhrl), but he makes wrangling the Martini-liveried 918 look kind of easy.
Take a look down below for the full, on-board video, and then click over and read our initial write-up from earlier this morning and take a glance at the more stylized video that Porsche originally posted.
