If you have any questions please email at: sharlasttrafton@clubyamaha.com .
1975 Porsche 914 Targa in very, very good daily driver condition. -matching numbers car, engine
number GC000102. Nice example of an original 914 that is not concourse but an extra nice car that would make any
driver proud.
Interior: All new interior in perfect condition. New seats, door panels, back pad, dash, carpet and many new
seals. 12 inch Momo Course steering wheel (which I almost replace with original but this one feels much better to
drive). New Rennline aluminum floorboard.
Exterior: Brand new paint with very nice shine. Not perfect with some blemishes but hard to tell. No dents,
scratches or dings. Bumpers clean with no damage but do show signs of age but again, hard to tell especially from a
few feet away. Wheels are original 914 fuchs, clean with shine, not perfect but look very nice and no major (hardly
even minor) scratches or curb rashes. Perfect door gaps.
Engine: The most desirable 2.0 Liter of the 4 cylinder 914's. Starts right up and idles smooth with original fuel
injection. Clutch depresses smooth and also with no noise or slipping. New valve adjustment, new pushrod tube
seals, new valve cover gaskets, new vacuum lines, new fuel injector seals, new points, new ignition wires, new
spark plugs, new intake boots, new intake manifold gaskets, new head temperature sensor, new air filter. Fresh oil
change.
Mechanical: All mechanical aspects of this car are very good for a 41 year old auto. Shifts smooth with new shift
bushings on the 5 speed, side shifter gearbox. New front brakes that stop smooth, in a straight line. New battery
in the more practical trunk mount position. Had some rust but all has been repaired/treated and now is a solid car.
Overview: I tried my best to show all aspects of this car to help anyone interested in making a decision. You need
to see it for yourself in order to; 1: Appreciate how nice it is. 2: Decide if, in your eyes, this is the car for
you. Different people have differing opinions. Please inspect photos carefully as they are part of the
description. This is “not” a perfect car so if you are looking for that, keep looking. It “is” a very
nice car that looks extremely nice. Title in hand and smog exempt (at least in CA.). 2017 tags just arrived. The
car is a blast to drive down a country road and has no overheating or running problems. It looks and feels, almost
like a brand new car. Brand new tires also. Odometer shows 18930 but actual mileage is unknown.

Evo sets up duel of Porsche 911s
Thu, 20 Mar 2014What's better, rear-wheel drive or all-wheel drive? That question has occupied auto enthusiasts for years, and so far, we've not really had a solid answer one way or the other. Evo has opted to take another whack at this tough question by pairing a pair of Porsche 911s against each other for a track battle.
In one corner, we have the two-wheel-drive 911 Carrera S, complete with the lickity-split PDK transmission, a sports suspension and carbon-ceramic brakes. In the other corner, it's the all-wheel-drive 911 Carrera 4S in a much mellower spec, with a seven-speed manual, as well as standard brakes and suspension. While the results seem like they'd be a foregone conclusion, some very British weather is there to act as the great equalizer.
We've got the full video down below. Have a look, and let us know if you agree with Evo's results.
Porsche 911 Aerodynamic prototype cheated the wind ahead of its time
Wed, 04 Jun 2014You might think that sports cars would have the lowest drag coefficient of all cars. And yes, they do tend to be more slippery than, say, SUVs or convertibles, but the sleekest vehicles on the road tend to be EVs, hybrids and luxury sedans. Sports cars, on the other hand, have aerodynamically detrimental needs for downforce and additional engine cooling. Still, the Porsche 911 is better than most, and has only gotten more so over the years. Its relatively narrow track and compact form mean it has a smaller frontal area than some other sports cars, and the gradual sweeping back of its headlights and windshield have only augmented its capacity for cheating the wind.
This 911 prototype, however, is even more aerodynamic than most. It's based on a "G model" 911 from 1984, but employed such features as covered wheels, a new rear spoiler and a reprofiled front end to drop its drag coefficient from 0.40 to 0.27, making it as slippery as a modern sedan and better at cheating the wind than just about anything built up to that point, save for maybe the Tatra 77, Citroën SM or Tucker Torpedo.
Elements of this prototype ended up gradually making it into production Porsches for years to come, and you can clearly see early influences on the second-generation 964 and even on the 959. It's featured here as the latest installment in a video series on rare historic Porsches unearthed from the company archives, following previous clips that featured a rare V8-powered 911 and a mid-engined 911 prototype. Scope out the latest episode in the video below.
Porsche 959 Prototype started it all
Wed, 11 Sep 2013While Porsche was unveiling the new Nürburgring-dominating 918 Spyder downstairs in Hall 3 here at the Frankfurt Messe, there was another Porsche supercar quietly and discretely on display upstairs in the same hall. That, of course, was the 959. But not just any 959: this was the original Gruppe B prototype.
The 959 was first developed as a rally car in the early 80s to compete with the likes of the original Audi Sport Quattro S1, Ford RS200 and Lancia Delta S4. But Zuffenhausen soon saw its potential as a production road-going supercar, emerging as a technological marvel to challenge the decidedly linear approach of the Ferrari F40. It still stands as a groundbreaking supercar in its own right, but also lead to the first all-wheel-drive 911 Turbo and set the stage for the Carrera GT and aforementioned 918 Spyder that followed to cap the top of the evolving Porsche range.
This original Gruppe B prototype, which presaged the production 959, packed a 450-horsepower 2.8-liter twin-turbo flat-six into an even sleeker form than the final version that followed. We caught up with it on display as part of a display of 80s German classics, of which this 959 prototype immediately stood out as the pick of the proverbial litter.
