Sterling, Virginia, United States


Original, Unmodified, Unrestored, Unwelded, 1967 911S.

Original white paint, black leatherette interior.
Solid, straight, and complete
with all early documentation.
Accident free and
never raced or rallied.


Condition:
.
  • 128,000 original miles (odometer replaced at 60K miles) but engine ran out of oil due to oil supply line failure.

  • Seats, luggage compartment carpeting, door panels, headliner, sun visors, instruments, leather-covered steering wheel, and dashboard fascia and top all in good to excellent condition. Floor carpeting intact but worn.  Foot pedal rubbers lightly and evenly worn. Trunk center carpeting oil stained with some loss of material on driver's side corner near battery.
     
  • All Fuchs optional 5.5-inch, 5-spoke wheels are near-perfect, no apparent dings, spare never used. Tire jack in new condition.

  • Minimal rust: RF fender has moderate rust-through in two spots, LF fender rusting through near rocker; some surface rust in corners, along bumpers, and rocker panels. Doors and jambs in impressive condition. No sunroof.

  • Underbody seems to have only surface rust. No rust holes in floor pan, jacking points intact. Doors, hood, and engine lid are in perfect gap alignment. Dealer undercoated at 18K miles.

  • Doors, windows, handbrake, control and release cables (except heater cables) function like new.

  • Instruments, ancillary electrical equipment, and wiring appear in excellent condition. Fuse block and area behind instrument panel look nearly new. Underhood, spare well, battery mount, clamps, and covers are all in exceptionally nice condition.

  • Frame integrity: No flex or weakness anywhere in body structure. Both doors open and shut freely when jacked on one side at rear torsion bar.  Early 911 Coupes possess greater long-term structural integrity than Targa versions.

  • According to David Morley at Drive.com.au in April 2014, "Porsche 911 Targa first drive:"

         The perceived problems with the original Targa centred around the fact that by chopping the roof off the 911, the bodyshell lost a lot
         of its structural integrity; a quality that was one of the 911 coupe’s long suits.

         Perhaps even more importantly than that, the shift to a removable targa roof suddenly robbed the 911 of one of its visual signatures;
         that sexy window line in profile

         Throw in the inevitable water leaks and extra wind noise, and the Targa model was soon perceived as 911 Lite.


Features:
  • Unfortunate engine failure is your opportunity to obtain a coveted and iconic 911S.

  • Body is a perfect candidate for either cosmetic or total restoration.

  • No prior attempt made to dismantle, weld, repair, restore, or turn engine crankshaft.
    .
  • Rare factory all-around tinted glass option in good condition. Equipped with 5.5-inch Fuchs wheels, electric antenna, fog lamps, Blaupunkt AM/FM/SW radio, Webasto heater, tubular chrome rear bumper guards, and factory approved Bosch ignition system upgrade.

LaFerrari, McLaren P1, Porsche 918 and Agera R take to Assen

Tue, 10 Jun 2014

It's the show-down (sort of) we've all been waiting for. The battle of the hybrid hypercars from the performance powerhouses of Europe: Ferrari LaFerrari, McLaren P1 and Porsche 918 Spyder. No one publication has managed to get their hands on all three just yet, but this video has - and with a Koenigsegg Agera R thrown in for good measure.
The video was shot by our (unrelated) Dutch compatriots at Autoblog.nl at the TT Circuit Assen in the Netherlands. The track has played host to Champ Cars and all manner of racing bikes, but this could be the ultimate grid of actual production machinery that's ever lined up behind its start/finish line. Shame the weather was rainy and this unsurpassed array of supercars weren't really racing - more showing off for the crowds. But what a show it was. Scope out the footage in the video below.

NHTSA closes probe into 2011 Porsche 911 coolant leaks

Thu, 13 Mar 2014

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has announced that it will end its investigation into rapid coolant loss in 24,635 Porsche 911s built between 2001 and 2011. The models affected included the standard 911, GT2, GT3 and Turbo, as well as their variants (GT2 RS, GT3 RS and Turbo S).
NHTSA was investigating for "rapid coolant loss caused by coolant pipe-fitting failure, allegedly resulting in vehicle disablement and/or loss of vehicle control due to reduced traction for the affected vehicle or following traffic," according to the regulators website. "Most of the leak complaints did not appear to involve complete separation of the fittings and many were detected when the vehicle was parked," said NHTSA's statement.
There were 63 complaints and 336 warranty claims, although the investigation was initiated after ten complaints from customers. There have been no reports of crashes or injuries attributed to rapid coolant loss.

Porsche becomes first company to rent out Vatican's Sistine Chapel

Fri, 17 Oct 2014

We wouldn't go so far as to say God is a Porsche fan, but those in charge of one of the holiest Christian spots on our little blue marble are welcoming the German automaker into one of the religion's most revered and beautiful settings - the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City. In so doing, Porsche will reportedly become the first company to rent out the holy hall for a corporate function.
Now, it's not like Pope Francis has signed off on Porsche doing do donuts in a 911 underneath Michelangelo's The Creation of Adam. Instead, the Vatican has rented out the home of the Papal Conclave to the Porsche Travel Club, which will host a classical music concert. The Travel Club organizes events and tours across Europe for Porsche enthusiasts, with the Vatican concert just one part of a tour of Rome.
According to Automotive News Europe, Porsche will sell 40 tickets - at 5,000 euros each ($6,379) - to the event, while the Vatican has confirmed that the Pope will not be in attendance.
