1969/70 Porsche 914-4 2056cc Engine on 2040-cars
Boulder, Colorado, United States
I have had it evaluated by a body shop and they told me it is drivable, but to keep an eye on the door gap. This engine is an EC Case Rebuild to 2056cc by Mark Stephens (non-matching #'s), and is quick with the 44's. Has ~6k miles on it (post rebuild) according to the PO. I have put on <1k miles. Happy to answer any questions. I am selling the car because I will be traveling later this year and cannot rationalize the storage costs. The Good: Rebuilt 2056cc Motor by Mark Stephens in Denver 96mm Heads,
Weber Racing Cam and Weber 44IDF Carbs...911 Valve screws (From PO) ....that have been blasted, rebuilt, re-gasketed and jetted
and tuned to altitude (by Carquip). Upgraded later model side-shift 5-speed transmission! Upgraded Adjustable Passenger Seat! Custom Upgraded Gauge Cluster with Oil Pressure/Temp/Fuel
and 911 Speedometer! Newly Reupholstered Seats and a very clean original black
basket-weave interior! Awesome custom sound-system with subwoofer built into
console! Original "Gas Burner" Mahle Rims (Most Lightweight
914 Rims ever). Euro Head and Tail Lights! Original Great condition Chrome Bumpers with original Hella
Fog Lights! New Carpet Set! The Bad: Paint is failing all over the car. DAPO repeatedly patched
up spots on the car with bondo and sprayed over...paint was matched to Irish
Green. It is a quck paint and its not great... Pass side longitudinal and jackpoint has BAD RUST, and hell
holes are rusted a bit as well. Synchro's in 1st and second may need some attention The Deal: This a very cool example of an early 914 with a very fast engine....it has been used as a daily driver and has a strong motor but could use some TLC in terms of body work and rust. Car also comes with a 914 car bra, a
dust cover, Haynes manual and some random odds and ends. |

Porsche 911 Cabriolet refresh may hide new engine
Wed, 22 Jan 2014If we learned nothing else from our recent frolic through Porsche's secret museum, it's that the automaker goes to incredible lengths to disguise future products during initial testing. Just as a number of cars in that Stuttgart bunker hid the true identity of developmental mules (like the Audi-V8-powered 911), such could very well be the case with these spy shots showing what, on the surface, appears to be simply a facelifted 991 911 Cabriolet.
Similar to what we saw last month on a 911 coupe, this Cabriolet has obvious styling modifications made to the front and rear fascias suggesting that the 911's still-fresh appearance is already set to get a few tweaks. The big news here is at the rear of the car. The additional vents on the lower edge of the fascia and the mocked-up vent above the engine leads our spy photographer to believe that a new engine could be tucked under the body work - likely a smaller-displacement, turbocharged flat-six focusing more on improving fuel efficiency and reducing exhaust emissions rather than performance.
We last heard rumblings of such a detuned 911 back in August, but could this be our first look at said new model? Have a look for yourself, and let us know what you think - either about this mule specifically or the idea of a "green" 911, in Comments below.
Consumer Reports selling its road-tested roadsters [w/video]
Thu, 31 Jan 2013Here's a chance to acquire a celebrity-owned vehicles, and this time at a discount instead of a premium. So the celebrity in this case is Consumer Reports, that magazine that could be equally adored and abhored by car enthusiasts. CR buys all of its test vehicles and usually finds willing second owners within its own ranks, but its opening its small used-car lot to the public. On the forecourt are four roadsters: an automatic 2012 Audi TT 2.0 TFSI Quattro S-Tronic with 6,600 miles for $36,500, a manual 2012 BMW Z4 sDrive28i with 8,400 miles for $45,000, a manual 2012 Mercedes-Benz SLK250 for $39,500 and a manual 2013 Porsche Boxster with 7,000 miles for $48,000.
Those numbers mean a savings of $9,000 to $10,000 before haggling - each car is listed with an "Asking price" so there could be some wiggle room if you show up with pockets full of dough and eyes full of serious intent. Since the money CR earns from the sales go back into the magazine's budget to buy more test cars, however, it probably won't take any oddball trades, so you can forget about getting any purchasing help from that track-day AMC Javelin project on blocks in the back yard.
The vehicles have been taken care of and spiffed up for sale; buyers will take delivery at the CR test track in East Haddam, Connecticut and get a tour of the facilities. While you're there they'll even take you on a lap around the track so you can feel how your car handles when driven by one of its testers. They will probably not help you with advice on which toaster and dehumidifier to buy - you'll still need to get a subscription for that. Have a look at the video below to see a day in the life of a CR test car.
Touring Italy in a classic Porsche will have you feeling continental
Wed, 13 Nov 2013It's hard to believe there was a time when a Porsche 911 didn't come to market with 400 horsepower. But as the latest video from Petrolicious reminds us, with this video of a 1968 911T, owned by Donato Maniscalco, that time wasn't so long ago.
You might think, being a distinguished man living in Italy, Maniscalco would be more enthused by a Ferrari, Maserati, or Lamborghini, but in reality, it was always Porsche that enamored the Italian as a boy. And it was that passion that led him to purchase the glorious 911T he's seen tossing about in this video.
Maniscalco goes into detail about what makes the old 911 such a legend, while also mentioning how he and the car participate in classic rallies and races. There's also some typically beautiful footage of the Italian countryside, as well. So take a look below for the latest video from Petrolicious.
