Here is a wonderful 2 owner 1974 914,  I found thid in Texas and just to buy it!!   1st owner southern CA, 2nd owner south TX. This car was parked by the 2nd owner in 1993 due to a bad ignition switch and had sat since. Starting with a great car ,only rust was the battery box and even it was not that bad,but I replaced anyway. This car has the orig. WINDOW STICKER and every receipt back to 1974! comes with car!
Car was 100% orig. when I started on it. The interior is as it left the factory,down to the front and rear floor matts. And it is a 9+ out of ten. It does have the appearance package option. We dropped the engine and fixed any and all leaks ( car doesnt leak a drop!) has the orig. Dunlop spare never on the ground. All books,keys,records,tool kit,jack. Porsche service book stamped up to 1980. Front and rear trunks have orig. carpet in exc. condition(even has the orig. noise matt in the rear. Car retains all orig. fuel injection. I have tons of pictures (300 PLUS THAT COME WITH THE CAR) before i started and during paint and rebuild. Car was repainted due to years of road rash, Paint is the orig. paint code, sunflower yellow and is outstanding! (cost was $4800) My plan was to keep this one but another car has caught my eye. Every thing works as it should but the clock. 100% ORIG. AND CORRCET. car is fast ,pulls very hard,drives straight as an arrow and now stops on a dime After researching the car I found the engine was completley rebuilt in 1990 at a cost of $5100 and the trans. rebuilt at the same time.  With all the records and history on this car I just had to do this one to the highest standard i could (but always put way to much to ever get my money back ) A excellent driver that anyone could show as it sits, this is not a
"10"but a 9+ all day long.  one of he best drivers out there period and a Hagerty "3"

I have restored over the last decades 15 Porsche air cooled 911's and dozens of 1973 honda Elsinores,CR250M's,   but doing-restoring this car was the most enjoying job I have done with the great platform I had to start with and the documents and history,    I can not believe how fast this car is and how much fun it is to drive for the buck.  Feel free to call if you wan't to discuss.  Thanks for looking!!  Charles

Mon, 21 Oct 2013

The 16th Petit Le Mans Powered By Mazda, in the final year of the American Le Mans Series presented by Tequila Patrón, was run on Saturday. Even though many of this year's championships had already been decided, the last ALMS race ever would be a 10-hour, 1,000-mile slog around Road Atlanta to get names in the record books and decide a few series trophies.

'Ring Queen Sabine Schmitz battles Ron Simons in Porsche vs Ferrari scrap

Tue, 04 Jun 2013

We hope you have seven minutes to kill. RSR Nürburgring recently took the time to pit Sabine Schmitz and her slightly modified Porsche 911 GT3 RS against Ron Simons and his Ferrari 458 Italia in a sparring match around the infamous Green Hell. The clip begins with the two drivers engaging in a smidgeon of smack talk before the two get down to the business of beating each other's doors off around one of the most challenging courses in the world. Simons calls his car superior to Schmitz's 911, while Schmitz says she's up against nothing more than a Fiat driven by an old Dutch man.
Don't hold any punches, you two.
We won't spoil the finale for you, but we will say the tango is worth watching. At the end, the loser calls for a rematch. We can't wait to see that throwdown. Check out the clip below for yourself.

The 2014 Ruf RCT offers rear-drive action with 911 Turbo fun

Wed, 05 Mar 2014

Ruf has 37 years of experience of turning Porsches into even higher performance machines. For the 2014 Geneva Motor Show, it's unveiling the RCT, or Ruf Carrera Turbo, which offers power to split the difference between Porsche's 911 Turbo and Turbo S models.
The RCT starts with a unique body kit with a new front air dam and drastically changed rear deck that combines both a small spoiler and air intake. Power is provided by a twin-turbocharged, 3.8-liter flat-six with 525 horsepower and 502 pound-feet of torque paired to either a seven-speed manual or seven-speed dual clutch transmission. That gives the Ruf a 5-hp and 15-lb-ft advantage over Porsche's own Turbo but is still less powerful than the full Turbo S. The RCT sprints to 62 miles per hour in 3.5 seconds and to a top speed of 196 mph.
However, the Ruf's big advantage is that it offers buyers the choice of either rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, while Stuttgart's turbo models are only available spinning all four wheels. The RCT can also offers upgrades like an integrated roll cage and custom suspension packages, should the buyer be so inclined to splash out on racing kit.
