1973 Porsche 914 2.0 Gt Flairs Sharp Car on 2040-cars
Clementon, New Jersey, United States
|
1973 Porsche 914 in excellent condition, with front and rear GT flares (fiberglass) and rear trunk spoiler. Body and paint are in excellent condition as I would probably give the paint a 9 and the body a 9+ and is very nice. Many new parts on this car including full tune up, valve adjustment, alt belt, coil, brakes, shifter bushings, fuel pump, and new tires. Clean interior, nice dash, no hvac controls as it was a southern car and previous owner didn't want them in the car and added oil pressure and charging gauges instead. Engine block is not a 2L, but was rebuilt with 2L heads and pistons and had this verified by my Porsche mechanic. Fuel injection has been replaced with Solex carburetors and starts right up, fuel pump was relocated to avoid the hot start problem from earlier models. The car runs and shifts good after its warmed up like most carbureted cars and has a small exhaust leak at the manifold which all but disappears when warmed up. Battery tray is in great shape and pan and rockers are in really nice shape also. Passenger mirror is not connected and will need new mount. Front and rear trunk have been completely sealed and are rust free. Originally all gauges worked, but the odometer has stopped now at 69000 and I believe this to be real miles as per the previous owner. I originally purchased the car because it was one of the best looking 914's I had seen, but I have lost my storage for it and have decided to let it go now. The car is still in my dealers name so the winning bidder will receive a clean title with a bill of sale upon receiving payment in full. I will require a $200 deposit with 48 hours of auction's end via Paypal with the balance in cash or Paypal if you want to pay the 2% surcharge due within 7 days. Out of country bidders will need to organize your own shipping and I can help load the vehicle for transportation. Only bid if you are serious about following through with your bid. Any additional questions just ask. Happy Bidding! |

Watch the incredibly complicated operation of Porsche's new targa roof
Tue, 14 Jan 2014Despite Porsche having claimed the name, targa tops are nothing new. In addition to the semi-roofless version of the 911, plenty of cars in the past have used removable roof panels - the new Corvette Stingray has one (as have prior generations), and this type of open-air experience has been available on past vehicles like the Pontiac Solstice Coupe and Honda Civic del Sol.
But when Porsche took the top off its brand new 911 Targa here at the Detroit Auto Show, it was indeed cause for pause. Simply put, this is one of the most complicated and intricate electronic roof panel removal techniques we've ever seen, save perhaps, for the setup found on the Japanese-market Civic del Sol from the 1990s.
We won't spoil the video for you, but basically, rather than just the roof panel coming off, the entire rear glass area lifts away the body in order for the small section over the passenger compartment to slide back. This has to be incredibly expensive to repair once it inevitably breaks. And we highly doubt you'll be able to operate this mechanism at any speed.
Driving the million-mile Porsche 356
Fri, 30 Aug 2013Maybe you've seen or heard about the Porsche 356 with almost one-million miles (though it doesn't look like it), but Petrolicious finally has produced a video to show us what it's like to drive the 982,000-mile car. Guy Newmark's beautiful, dark-blue 1964 356C looks great in motion - much better than in photos - and serves to remind us not only what meticulous car care can do for old classics, but that old Porsches were built to last.
So how fastidious is Newmark about maintaining it? He takes the car to his mechanic of 40 years every 3,000 miles for an oil change and to fix anything that needs attention.
Newmark says his 356 "is everything you could want," and that he finds errands to do just to go drive it. We would, too. The next-best thing is to watch the inspiring video below of the well-traveled Porsche.
Porsche announces plan to replace 911 GT3 engines
Wed, 19 Mar 2014About a month back, we reported that Porsche was suspending delivery of its 911 GT3 due to reported incidents of the engine bursting into flames. A few days later, Porsche told owners of the new track-ready models not to drive their cars and had their local dealers pick up the cars in question. Just a couple of days ago, we reported that Porsche was working on a fix, and now we have the official details.
Following an internal investigation prompted by two such incidents, Porsche has confirmed that is has identified the problem as resulting "from a loosened screw joint on the connecting rod." The loose connecting rod, Porsche found, damaged the crankcase, which in turn resulted in oil leaking and then - in at least two cases - igniting.
Our source is unaware of Porsche being contacted by GT3 owners concerned about the impact of a replacement engine on their car's collectibility or resale value.
