For Sale: 1974 Porsche 914/4 2.0L

This car was meticulously restored and garage kept for years. It is built to resemble a 914/6 with the rare factory M471 styling package. I purchased it in December of 2009 and completed the assembly. The car has many period correct upgrades. It has professionally installed lap welded STEEL fender flares. The receipts for the paint alone equal near $4,000.00 in 1980s money. Paint is absolutely beautiful overall but the front trunk and windshield cowl have been repainted and are ok but not as nice as the rest of the car. Easily redone though. It has Koni adjustable shocks and lowering springs. The wheels are awesome period correct BBS (Mahle) with new Kumho Ecsta tires. Many new parts, (too much to list) such as, new clutch cable and throttle cable, weatherstrip, shift bushings, brakes, battery and clutch. It has a strong 2.0 litre engine with dual 44mm Weber carburetors. Many small improvements such as brass rollers on the rear trunk lid hinges and 911 mirrors. Interior is in really nice condition with short shift kit, dead pedal, Formuling steering wheel and good carpets and door panels. Header panel on the roll bar has only minor cracks and dash has none. Top is in excellent shape as is headliner.  The side shift transmission shifts fine and synchros are in good order. I have over $17,000 in receipts with the car in a folder. There is a Beechcraft airplane fuel filler door installed in the front trunk for fast fill ups without opening trunk and a race car look. It does not affect the trunk opening and closing. The car is set up for autocrossing and is totally streetable but handles incredibly. All electrical works except for the fog lights, horn (it did and I suspect horn button), and the oil temp gauge. There are some windshield rock chips, no cracks. The Ansa muffler  header has some rust holes that need to be welded but do not have any effect on function.  There is no rust to be found on the body including under the battery tray. I have driven this car with no issues from Lafayette, LA to Braselton, GA and back to camp out in the infield at Road Atlanta (1100 mile round trip). It got nearly 30 mpg average on this trip! Overall, this is a super fun, amazing handling vehicle that is a real head turner. Thanks for looking and feel free to ask any questions. 337-591-7766 Paul

Porsche 911: Big in Taiwan

Fri, 09 Aug 2013

Porsche is continuing celebrations for the fiftieth anniversary of its iconic 911. In its latest video, it's gone to Taiwan, to interview some of the folks that have grown passionate about the rear-engined sportscar over the years.
By and large, the views expressed in this video could have come from anywhere in the world. The 911 is a great car and that doesn't change from country to country. These enthusiasts have the same passion that fans in England, the United States or Germany have for the Carrera. Take a look below at the full video, to see what the 911 enthusiasts of Taiwan love about their 911s.

Chevy Corvette Stingray defeating rivals where it matters most

Wed, 16 Jul 2014

Everything is coming up roses for the award-winning Chevrolet Corvette Stingray, as new data from the North American Dealers Association dissected by GM Authority reveals that America's sports car is handily outselling two of its more expensive rivals.
Through June of 2014, the NADA notes that the Corvette has rung up 17,744 sales, handily besting the Porsche 911 and positively spanking the SRT Viper. Of course, you're sitting there thinking, "Corvette is outselling the much more expensive Porsche and Viper. Sky blue, water wet." But what's impressive here is just how thoroughly the Chevrolet is beating its two rivals, with this data serving as a testament to just how popular the seventh-generation sports car has become.
So far this year, Porsche has managed to move 5,169 911s, according to NADA. Considering that the base model starts at nearly $15,000 more than the most heavily optioned Stingray, and that Porsche owners have a vast, expensive options catalogue to select from, Stuttgart's sales are still plenty impressive in relation to the nearly 18,000 Corvettes sold.

Overnight action from the 24 Hours of Le Mans

Sun, 23 Jun 2013

We won't go into a recap here, but there are still leading positions being fought for in all classes - it's so close that leads are changing when a car goes into the pits. We'll let the recap wait until the end of the race, so for now enjoy some shots from last night's action at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
