1967 Porsche 912 Matching Num 46k Orig Miles 911 Rare Parts Excellent Interior on 2040-cars
Catasauqua, Pennsylvania, United States
up for sale is a very original 1967 Porsche 912. this is an original numbers matching 46k mile car. I have documentation from the 70's when the car last changed owners prior to my ownership where the mileage was recorded in the low 40k. the previous owner told me that the car has been in his barn since 1980. this explains the 78/79 inspection sticker still on the car and the very nice original interior. the original color was polo red. it was painted at some point prior to the previous owner that I purchased this car from. it has a clear PA title and I am willing to ship anywhere as long as your paying. BODY: the car is in need of a total restoration, usual rusted floors, longs, rockers, front pan. it also has rusted holes behind the pop out windows, it can be seen in the pics. the front bumper, rear bumpers, rear deck lid, front hood are all solid. rear deck lid has an excellent condition grille. the car also has the four screw front fenders. car also has original koni shocks yet. front hood has hood pins for some reason. INTERIOR: the interior is actually very nice for the most part. considering this is a 46k mile car that would be expected. the front seats are very nice original condition seats, only blemishes are one nick on the seam drivers side and a quarter size hole on the back of the passenger seat. the rear seats are also in nice condition as is the rear side panels and deck area. the dash has no cracks. left side of the dash above ignition is becoming brittle. the dash top is in nice condition as well. the original steering wheel is in excellent condition as is the rare bat wing horn button. the door panels are extremely nice, no sagging pockets or anything. everything could use some more cleaning to make it even better. not sure if this is an original radio or not, seems to fit the dash well. the carpet is nice and the original rubber mats are also present. ENGINE: the engine is currently seized. obviously from sitting for the last 34 years it would need a rebuild. the original solex carbs are intact and move freely. the engine number is 753797 and the transmission is 237144. these are numbers matching to the certificate of authenticity which will be included with the sale. please have a plan ready to go if you plan on purchasing this vehicle on how you will pick it up. I expect a $500 non refundable deposit at the end of the auction. I am willing to take any additional photos that you might want or answer any other questions quickly. please have this car picked up within one week of end of auction or as discussed with me. |

2014 Porsche 911 GT3 [w/video]
Thu, 01 Aug 2013The Bearable Lightness Of Being
Start with a standard Porsche 911 Carrera and its 350-horsepower, 3.6-liter flat six-cylinder engine. Bore a crepe-thin slice of aluminum from each cylinder to get to 3.8 liters, add a wider track out back and two extra exhaust pipes and voila, you can append an S to the Carrera's name. Hang two sets of wet, multi-disc clutches along its spine and you can make that a 4, or a 4S. Bolt on two forced-induction compressors and piping, add two fender vents and comically wide rear tires and you've redeemed your ticket to a Turbo. Increase the boost pressure and swell the corral to 560 horses and you have the Turbo S, which is the Virginia Slims of the 911 line-up because it's come a long way, baby.
Or you can go in a different direction. At that second stop, grab the 3.8-liter and cart it over to the engineers at Porsche's development center in Weissach, Germany. If racing were meat, they would be among the alpha carnivores. The baseboards in their homes are probably painted with miniature billboards for motor oil and vintage cigarettes along the straights, red-and-white stripes around every corner.
$1.4B hedge fund suit against Porsche dismissed
Wed, 19 Mar 2014Investors have canvassed courts in Europe and the US to repeatedly sue Porsche over its failed attempt to take over Volkswagen in 2008 (see here, and here and here), and they have repeatedly failed to win any cases. You can add another big loss to the tally, with Bloomberg reporting that the Stuttgart Regional Court has dismissed a 1.4-billion euro ($1.95B US) lawsuit, the decision explained by the court's assertion that the investors would have lost on their short bets even if Porsche hadn't misled them.
Examining the hedge funds' motives for stock purchases and the bets that VW share prices would fall, judge Carola Wittig said that the funds didn't base their decisions on the key bits of "misinformation," and instead were participating simply in "highly speculative and naked short selling," only to get caught out.
With other cases still pending, the continued streak of victories bodes well for Porsche's courtroom fortunes, since judges will expect new information to consider overturning precedent. If there is any new info, it could come from the potential criminal cases still outstanding against former CEO Wendelin Wiedeking and CFO Holger Härter, who were both indicted on charges of market manipulation.
DP Motorsport tries to turn a vintage Porsche 911 into a sleeper
Tue, 20 Aug 2013Once you get past the fact that it's hard to call a car a sleeper when it has race-product stickers on its quarter panel, and the script across the back panel reads "Porsche 911 3.2 Sleeper," it's fun to imagine what this car can do. Celebrating the 50th anniversary of the Porsche 911, Germany's DP Motorsport took a model from 1986, stripped it of everything - including the paint and undercoating - then replaced everything with lightweight and race-ready parts.
In went race cams and ported cylinder heads, a lightweight flywheel, an RSR titanium racing exhaust, 935-style lollipop seats and RSR carpeting, a lightweight battery, perforated and galvanized hinges and brackets, hardened perspex windows. The 3.2-liter engine puts out 270 horsepower - 70 hp above the stock 911 on sale here in 1986 - and 226 pound-feet of torque through a limited slip differential to staggered wheels. The exterior color is metallic rock-green lacquer.
If you want one, $120,00 is where the part starts, but DP Motorsport says it offers the parts individually if you don't need your vintage Porsche to sleep this hard. On a side note, for a chucklesome journey back in time, check out this review of the 1986 911 that gets things going with this line: "First off, the Porsche 911 is very expensive - how does about 40 thou grab you?" Back on topic, there's a press release below that tells the rest of the story of the 3.2 Sleeper.
