1974 Porsche 914 with 2.0 engine

This project car that my son and I have been working on for over a year has to go because we are buying a house and need the money for the down payment. This car is going to be a great car when done and is about 80% complete. Check out the pictures on my website www.thewebdoc.com. We have cleaned, and restored the interior, replaced the seats with custom designed seats. These seats cost over $700 to have made and really dress up the car. The steering wheel has been painstakingly restored and the instrument panel has been sanded down and painted red to add contrast.

Mechanically the car is great and starts up and drives great. The goal was to use this as a daily driver and park my Hummer considering the price of gas is almost $4.00 a gallon. The car handles great and has new larger tires (less that 1000 miles on new tires). It also has the 911 style rims with New Porsche emblems on the center caps. The carburetor has been rebuilt and adjusted. The manifold gaskets have been also replaced. The car has a new battery.

We customized the center console and installed 2 high output speakers as well as replaced the standard speakers in the kicker panels with better speakers. We also updated the sound system with a brand new Pioneer stereo.

The interior was stripped out and any rust was taken care of and has been painted and sealed. On 4/19/14 we installed new upgraded carpet with added sound proofing where possible. Our goal was to make this car a daily driver and have been replacing all of the necessary parts to make this car solid. We have replaced the rubber gaskets in the targa top and window edges. The seals in the front trunk have been replaced. One of the most important things we did was replace the seatbelts with new ones from a 928 so they are better quality.

The tires have been replaced with new wider high performance tires. The brakes and brake fluids have been replaced, along with all of the other engine fluids. In addition the car comes with a new master cylinder that I was planning on installing it to improve stopping power.

This car also has air conditioning and all the parts appear to be included but at this time it is not installed. That was going to be our next project. Both the front and back trunks are carpeted and the front one has been painted and the bottom has been treated with rubberized paint to add some sound proofing.

The hood has been recently been repainted and the Porsche crest has been added, and you can see by the picture how nice the car is going to look when the rest of the car is restored. The body is solid but needs to be sanded and repaired prior to painting it; this will never be a show car but can be made to look great and will be a blast to drive.

This car will be a great car with a little more TLC. If we were not buying a new house it would not be for sale.

Best electric sedans of 2024

Wed, Jan 31 2024

While the American automotive trends tend to lean toward SUVs and trucks, and sedans seem to be dying out, there are some great four-doors out there in the EV market. They may not have the bulk, the high vantage point, or the storage capacity of the utes, but some folks still want a car that’s, well, a car. A sedan might not always have as much room to cram in a big battery pack, either, but they also donÂ’t weigh as much. They tend to be more lithe, sexy and agile. And theyÂ’re generally cheaper than their bigger brethren, too, though some of the full-size luxury sedans can still get well into six-figure pricing. If thatÂ’s not your thing, you can check out the best electric SUVs, but if youÂ’ve read this far, you probably enjoy sedans as much as us. WeÂ’ve tested quite a few, and these are the best electric sedans of 2024. Â Best electric sedans below $60,000 Tesla Model 3 Â— $40,380 The Tesla Model 3 is one of just two sedans (along with the Hyundai Ioniq 6) to make it onto our list of best EVs under $50,000. ItÂ’s quite the value, too, with a starting price of just $40,380. ItÂ’s also fun to drive. Yes, it has some quirks, including too many vehicle functions residing exclusively in infotainment menus, but the Model 3's idiosyncrasies are easy to forgive based on its price and range, and they're things you can quickly get used to or possibly even appreciate. No wonder this EV is so popular. Â Hyundai Ioniq 6 Â— $43,565 Of the sedans on this list, the Ioniq 6 is one of the most affordable (starting at $43,565), and one of the best. ItÂ’s quite efficient, with long driving range Â— up to 361 miles. Its cabin is creative in its design while being practical and comfortable. Interestingly, the Hyundai Ioniq 6 is the sportiest version of Hyundai and KiaÂ’s E-GMP cars, apart from the high-performance Kia EV6 GT. Its design, value, range, fast charging and other useful tech easily make it one of best electric sedans you can buy. Â BMW i4 Â— $53,195 Though the BMW i4 is essentially an electric version of the 4 Series Gran Coupe, this EV sedan is something special. ItÂ’s packed with power and great driving dynamics in true BMW style. The rear-drive i4 eDrive40 is one quick car, but the i4 M50 is ridiculously fast. If you can get past the questionable nose and the iDrive 8 infotainment system, the i4 is an electric sleeper, and a performance bargain.

2014 Porsche Panamera Turbo S is a 911 Turbo for the family man

Thu, 21 Nov 2013

In the event that the Porsche Panamera Turbo's 520 horsepower and 189-mile-per-hour top speed aren't enough to sate the appetite of the speed freak, Porsche has just given the auto show debut to the faster, more powerful Panamera Turbo S.
With 570 horsepower being pumped from a 4.8-liter, twin-turbocharged V8, the Panamera Turbo S promises even faster acceleration, hitting 60 mph in 3.6 seconds, a 0.3-second improvement over the standard Turbo. The top speed, meanwhile, climbs to 192 mph, which is kind of ridiculous for a car with four doors and a trunk.
Other enhancements that come with this Panamera's extra syllable include carbon-ceramic brakes and the entirety of Porsche's active chassis systems, including Porsche Dynamic Chassis Control and Porsche Active Suspension Management. The performance goodies come standard, but that doesn't mean the Panamera Turbo S is cheap.

Petrolicious profiles a Porsche 911 hot rod called The Growler

Wed, Aug 5 2015

Petrolicious always does a superb job of showcasing fantastic vehicles and their owners. While some of its videos might go a little too far into the personal stories rather than putting the cars on the road for some people's tastes, this latest one is an absolute feast for the senses. The vehicle featured is called "The Growler," and this Porsche 911 hot rod assaults its driver with a wall of sound. The coupe maintains only the tiniest amount of on-road civility to still be regularly usable. Boasting a roll cage and a set of racing buckets inside, The Growler certainly looks all business. An engine tune, suspension upgrade, and 400 pounds of removed weight are enough to turn this 964-chassis 911 into something really sublime behind the wheel, too. As the first air-cooled car for owner Alex Bermudez, he's definitely starting near the top. Filmed on some misty canyon roads, the white coupe roars around sounding more like a racecar than anything road legal, and Petrolicious perfectly captures the this Porsche as it's flung around the narrow path. You can see the rear end just begin to step out before Bermudez catches it. Inside, each shift looks like the movement of a rifle bolt to shoot the car forward. Listening to the engine build revs might be the best thing you hear today, so stop what you're doing and take a listen. Related Video:
