This 1970 Porsche 914 was a 'barn find' and had been stored in a garage for 7 + years when I found it in 2004. It was not totally original and the only history I have on it is that it belonged to a Naval Officer in Sand Diego. It was his daily driver from the late 80's to late 90's.

It was given to, and put back on the road by my father, until he gave it back to me 5 years ago. After that, the 1.7 was upgraded to a 2.0 with dual Webber 44 carbs. Approx mileage is 40k on the motor and trans. Odometer shows a little over 88,000.

In the past year:

It was painted from a dark maroon to Porsche 914 color, Willow Green. (The original color was Canary Yellow). The paint is in good shape, with normal pits in the hood from highway driving but looks really sharp and turns heads. One small crack on driver's fender. There was bondo there from someone shaving side lights, but all was removed when painted, but a crack appeared in that spot. This in fact was the only bondo found on car when painted.

•New carpet on interior, and both trunks. New front struts and aftermarket rear trunk lid struts for easier opening.
•Top is in good shape with no mechanical issues with the latches.

•No rust to speak of. The battery tray was rusted and replaced, but no 'hell hole' issues. All other surface rust was eliminated when painted.
•Tires have approx. 70% tread. 195/ 60 on front, 205/60 on rear.
•Riviera wheels in great condition.
•Normal dash cracks. I have a plastic cover on the dash.
•Some work done by German Dreams in Bakersfield, CA.
•Kenwood AM/FM stereo with single CD player. One stock speaker could use replacing. 2 speakers in door panels, 4 total.
•After market muffler, which produces a louder sounding car. Small hole in rear valance.
•Interior is not original. Seats are in great shape, no tears. Some small tears in door panels and backing, nothing major. Overall a 8.5/10

This car is a driver, not a concour car, but a nice car that I have been proud to show.

It was pictured in the Sept 2013 Porsche Panorama magazine as the feature car for the Cal Inland PCA Concour from last spring.

It has been driven in many autocross events, and performs well. I am selling it because I picked up another project car, and can't keep both. I do not hesitate to drive this car anywhere.

Watch MotorWeek review the last great air-cooled Porsche 911

Thu, Apr 28 2016

These days air-cooled Porsche prices are blasting through the roof, and the 993 gets much of that love among collectors as the last generation before the 911's switch to water-cooled design. MotorWeek's latest Retro Review now looks back at the 1996 911 Targa. The coupe came from a brief period when the 911s were the only models in the brand's lineup, but the company made sure those cars were perfect. The point of Porsche's Targa models is to combine the open-air driving of a convertible with a security of a coupe. In this case, the engineers came up with a massive glass panel that slid into the roof at the touch of a button. The design still allowed for rearward visibility but created a giant opening to allow the sunshine in. The solution isn't as awe-inspiring to watch as the Transformer-like metamorphosis of the latest 911 Targa, but it gets the job done in a very unobtrusive way. As air-cooled values continue to creep upward, it's fascinating to hear how contemporary reviewers critique the cars. In this case, the 993 lives up to the promise of being the ultimate evolution of the original idea behind the 911. MotorWeek even calls the coupe "simply one of the best road cars ever made." Check out the video to find out why. Related Video:

The exotic '80s: Ferrari, Lamborghini, Lotus and the Porsche 959

Thu, Apr 9 2015

There's no secret that we are big fans of the MotorWeek Retro Review series around here. In an automotive world that often focuses on the latest tech and what's coming in the future, it's refreshing to take a look into the past to get a new perspective. That said, the show is really outdoing itself this time by posting a full episode from the '80s to YouTube, complete with the original, jazzy opening. The video is an absolute standout, too, with drives of some of the best supercars that Europe could offer at the time. Among the now classic sportscars that MotorWeek got to drive are the Ferrari 328, Lotus Esprit Turbo, Lamborghini Jalpa and Autokraft AC Mark IV. There's even a preview that sings the praises of the tech in the Porsche 959. The episode is basically a showcase of most of the exotics from young enthusiasts' walls and school folders during the '80s and is not to be missed.

Porsche creates 'symphony' with seven generations of 911

Wed, 02 Oct 2013

At Porsche, things are getting a bit wild on the 50th anniversary year of the 911. To celebrate it (again) in yet another inventive way, the automaker has called on the musical talents of seven generations of the rear-engine sports car (please suspend your disbelief, at least for the length of the video, and assume that generation two started in 1974) to perform a song that has eight notes. We're wondering which 911 is pulling double duty...
But before the Porsches are lined up for the short recital, the drivers let loose and drift them inside a hangar. Watch the video below, and tell us in comments which was more impressive: the song or the drifting.
