Overview

 

This is a very good driver level Porsche 356 C which has been owned by the present owner since June 1981.  Having been driven a total of 112,000 miles the Porsche has been maintained by qualified Porsche mechanics.  It retains its original Light Ivory with black leatherette interior,  according to the COA. 

 

Exterior

 

The front section of the car was painted in 1992 when it suffered a front end collision which necessitated replacement of the hood, front bumper,  and front fenders.  This work was completed by a professional Porsche repair facility in the Denver, Colorado area.   There is no evidence of any rust in the floor pan, longitudionals, and related undercarriage.  The roof and quarter panels are believed to have the original factory paint.  The panel fit and gaps are good to very good.  There is only very minor pitting to the front bumper and windshield.  The chrome plating is good.

 

Interior

 

The original interior, including vinyl seats, door panels, head liner and carpets are in good condition but there  is evidence of normal usage.  The original glass is in good condition and has been tinted.  Included in the sale is the original owner’s manual and maintenance book. 

 

Mechanical

 

The non-original engine is a 912 model which was completely rebuilt in 1988, with  69,000 miles on the odometer, by Eisenbuds, Inc., a well respected Porsche repair facility in, Denver.  A recent inspection of the car by Eisenbuds revealed excellent leak down numbers of 3%, 3%, 3% and  4%. Eisenbuds has provided professional maintenance and repairs as evidenced by numerous repair orders.  New tires were installed in 2007 and are slightly worn.   

 

Summary

 

This is a good example of a very desirable Porsche 356 C which needs to be driven and enjoyed.  The car is located in the Denver Colorado area.  Also included are an original 356 Workshop manual, miscellaneous repair and restore manuals, last 5 yrs 356 Registry Library, extra wheel and tire, factory protective body cover and black nose bra.  This beauty is attractively priced well below market and replacement cost.

'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.

Porsche Cayman GT4 spotted at the N?rburgring

Tue, 13 May 2014

It was just the other day that we first caught wind of Porsche's plans to build a GT4 version of the Cayman, and now we're already looking at spy shots of the vehicle in question undergoing testing at - where else? - the Nürburgring.
With more aggressive front-end aero, a GT3-style air vent ahead of the front hood, a large wing at the back, and spindly alloys packed with over-sized brakes at each corner, this Cayman is clearly more extreme than even the range-topping GTS. The rear diffuser and central exhaust tips look about the same as those you'd find at the back of the Cayman GTS, though.
What we can't see, of course, is what Porsche has slotted in under the rear glass, how it's upgraded the interior and how much weight it's stripped out of the thing to get it down to fighting weight, but you can bet it'll come with a substantial power bump and a stripped-out interior with racing buckets and little else to open the gap between it and the GTS... and close the gap to the 911 GT3 which it will join as the baby brother in Porsche's performance-focused lineup.

Race Recap: 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans defines 'endurance'

Mon, 16 Jun 2014

Commenting on the rush of events that rocked beginning and end of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Paul Truswell of Radio Le Mans said "the race is about the ability to endure, not just the ability of drivers to do what they do for a long time." The entire race machine, all the way down to the pit boards and radios, has to survive the stress and abuse of the entire day. This was the race to prove those words.
There were two Toyotas, two Porsches and three Audis, five of the seven led the race at some point, six of the seven ran in the top three. Toyota will be hugely disappointed that it didn't win when its car and drivers were so, so strong, but they gave Audi the kind of scare we haven't seen since the best of Peugeot's days, and Toyota did a better job of it even in the loss. Porsche blew away everyone's expectations, falling 3.5 hours short of a fairy tale ending that would have made Disney cry.
But Le Mans doesn't really do fairy tales. Well, not that fairy tale. Audi's Twitter handle during the event was #welcomechallenges. As usual, Le Mans answered for the entire field.
