Original Owner 914-6! Signal Orange. on 2040-cars
Erie, Colorado, United States

It's not very often you find a six as honest, as this one. Then you factor in a one owner, low mile, no stories car, with original paperwork and documents and it becomes one of the elite few.
This is not a restored car, but a car that has been looked after by one person since 1970. I have known Mark for a long time now, and this is his baby, I myself have been very active in the 914 circles for a very long time, and I know these cars well.
This is a very solid six that can be either enjoyed and driven right now, or if so desired restored and taken to a Concours show car level. I have taken over 100 detailed photographs of all the important and not so important areas, please allow time for them to load. It does have some custom interior work, but the original parts were retained should the new owner desire to return it to 100% stock condition. It was painted in the 80's and was a amateur job, there is overspray and flatness to the paint. The good news is that the car is/was always super solid as the pictures will show. Hell hole is very nice and so are the longs and jack points. I saw no evidence of cancerous rust. It retains all it's original sheet metal and other than a minor parking lot ding the owner fixed back in the day it's never been hit.
The motor has been rebuilt from the crank up in 88 by Mark, he said he couldn't take the oil leaks anymore, it is still a 2.0. It does have a few drips now, but it runs out real nice. The trans is also tight and shifts nice (for a tail shifter) and had a short shift kit installed.
Please take time to study the pictures, and feel free to contact me with any questions. I can be reached at 720-470-ten sixty three

Porsche Supercup racer dies in crash in Australia
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Even with great strides made towards increasing the safety of motor racing, fundamentally it's still a dangerous sport. And now it has claimed another life.
That life belonged to one Sean Edwards, an accomplished GT racing driver. Edwards was killed at Queensland Raceway in Australia, riding shotgun in a Porsche 996 GT3 while acting as instructor. The driver was airlifted to hospital with critical injuries. Sean Edwards was 26.
The son of former F1 driver Guy Edwards (whose car he drove in the filming of Rush), Sean won the European GT3 Championship in a Porsche 911 GT3 Cup and drove a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG GT3 to repeat victories at the 24 Hours of Dubai as well as this year's Nürburgring 24 Hours. Edwards had been competing in the Porsche Supercup, whose standings he currently leads with just two rounds to go, and could be crowned champion posthumously.
Porsche Cayman S and Caterham 7 go head to head on the drag strip
Fri, 27 Jun 2014We recently saw the standard Porsche Cayman go up against a Subaru WRX STI in a one-mile drag race with surprising results. Apparently, Evo had a similar idea of evaluating the Cayman's quickness. However, it opted for the more powerful S model and chose a flyweight Caterham Roadsport 140 as the challenger. Will the results of this battle be as close at the end of the kilometer-long (0.62-mile) drag?
Neither of these are cars you'd usually associate with drag racing, but they are nearly evenly matched. Evo selected them based on power-to-weight ratio, with the Caterham offering a scant 140 horsepower in a lithe 1,213-pound package. The Porsche is a quite svelte 2,910 pounds but has 325 hp to haul it around.
Of course, power-to-weight ratio isn't everything. There are a ton of other variables like aerodynamics and gearing that play a huge role, as well. Can the little Caterham's weight advantage overcome the better aero and additional power of the Porsche? Scroll down watch the video and find out.
Father-son team grows close by building tuned Porsche
Mon, 21 Jul 2014We've seen several heartwarming videos of kids bonding over cars with their parents, whether racing together or giving them as gifts. The story of Leh Keen and his father McGrath, though, is somewhat different. Not many dads are looking for a vehicle quite this mental.
As Leh tells it, his dad saw a video online of one of the wild Porsches from Japanese tuner Rauh-Welt Begriff and decided that he needed one of the creations in his own garage. Since Leh knows something about cars himself as a driver for Alex Job Racing in the United SportsCar Championship, McGrath put his son in charge of managing the build from the company.
When the car made it to the US for completion from Rauh's famed builder Nakai, father and son bonded over the red, widebody 993-platform 911. The final product is certainly eye-catching. Scroll down to watch the video that features not only an engrossing father-son tale but also a seriously wicked, tuned Porsche from one of Japan's finest.
