Nice 911 project.
I got this last month in a package of 2 911s Looks like the motor on the other one is shot so Im unloading this one to free up funds for a rebuild It is a very solid 911. NO RUST. Looks to be an arizona and texas car No signs of rust even in the battery box area. Nice interior except for the dash Rear floor mats are missing but fronts are there and in decent shape Fuchs are clean and all straight with no major rash Everything is there. WHAT I HAVE DONE dump the old oil and replace oil and filter with a Fram and Rotella 15w-40 Replaced the fuel pump Started the engine WHAT IT NEEDS Paint Interior pieces back together Rear tires, current are dry rotted Air filter rubber straps Rear tailight lense Windshield Dash Cap Cover New seals-weatherstripping Turn signal covers My plan was to get this one painted and running well, however I thought I'd pass it along as is and let someone else pick this up as a project since these are getting more difficult to find. I PLAN TO PUT A LINK OF THE ENGINE RUNNING SO YOU CAN HEAR IT RUN SMOOTHLY. YOU WILL NOTICE THE ALT BELT IS REMOVED, IT WAS THAT WAY WHEN I PICKED UP THE CAR. I HAVE A NEW BELT BUT WHEN I INSTALLED IT AND FIRED THE CAR UP THERE WAS A RATTLE FROM THE ALTERNATOR? (FROM WHAT I CAN TELL) SO I REMOVED IT AGAIN SINCE THE CAR IS ONLY STARTED FOR 30 SECONDS AT A TIME WHEN STARTED IT SMOKES A BIT LIKE ALL OLD 911s WHEN THEY SIT FOR A WHILE |

Porsche announces works team for United Sportscar Championship
Tue, 24 Sep 2013Porsche is undoubtedly the most successful manufacturer in sportscar racing, and it's only upping its game. The German marque is launching its new LMP1 racer for Le Mans in pursuit of overall victory once again, and now that sportscar racing in North America is coming together under one banner in the United Sportscar Championship, Porsche has announced it is entering the fray with a works team here as well.
The new Porsche North America racing team will field two cars in the entire inaugural season of the Tudor United Sportscar Championship that's been formed out of the former Grand-Am and American Le Mans Series. The team will be based out of the Porsche Motorsport North America facility in Santa Ana, California, and will partner with three-time ALMS LMPC winners Core Autosport in getting a pair of the latest 911 RSR racecars to the front of the GT Le Mans class.
Drivers have yet to be announced, but are projected to be drawn out of Porsche's factory driver program, which includes such talents as Patrick Long, Timo Bernhard, Romain Dumas and Neel Jani. Keep reading below for the official announcement.

Porsche celebrates 50 years of 911 with some excellent pics
Tue, 12 Feb 2013The Porsche 911 is one of the most iconic sports cars of all time, and to celebrate the car's first 50 years, Porsche has released a stunning set of photos showing how far the 911 has come from the original back in 1963 to its current 991 generation. Unlike the recent 60-year photo spread that Chevrolet put together for the Corvette, though, Porsche's gallery only shows the original 911 and the current car.
Each time the 911 is redesigned, the car's front fenders, roofline and the shape of the side windows are key focal points. Even some of the interior cues have remained the same over the years, including the positioning of the ignition key on the left of the steering column and the five-gauge instrument cluster layout.
Scroll down for Porsche's press release breaking down the seven generations of the 911, and be sure to check out our gallery with plenty of high-res pics for you to download as a desktop wallpaper. In fact, we're providing these at 1920-pixels-wide instead of our usual 1280 wide. Enjoy!
