1941 Packard One-Eighty LeBaron Sport Brougham
CCCA 98.25 Score, Showed at Pebble Beach
......please be patient while the many photos load.....
One of 100 made with only a handful of survivors left, many estimate to be no more than 20. Showed at Pebble Beach
in 2003. Car was judged by CCCA in 2002 and scored 98.25 out of 100 points. This is CCCA senior car #2462 with it's
known history dating back to the previous three owners over 25 years. Cosmetic restoration beautifully done in the
early to mid 1990's including the extremely rare and correct Riviera interior. The engine was completely rebuilt by
the Packard specialists at John Deere in Enquist, Illinois. The car has traveled about 5,000 miles since. Renowned
collector known for his fastidious attention to detail, Dr. Rick Zeiger purchased it from it's previous owner in
Chicago right around the turn of the century and made several improvements such as completely rebuilding the
transmission, fully rebuilding the front end with the use of early style metal pivot points instead of rubber, as
well as going through the entire cooling system assuring it's comfort and reliability. A previous owner tells me
that the car was absolutely rust and accident free prior to it's exhaustive restoration. If you'd like more
information regarding the One-Eighty,Videos below as well as an extensive collection of photos in the slideshow area.

Watch Porsche legend Jeff Zwart frolic in the snow in his 356
Wed, 14 May 2014Racing driver Jeff Zwart picked up a 1953 Porsche 356 Pre A to use as a historical prop in a Cayenne commercial, then decided to keep it when the filming was done. Then, explaining to filmmaker Will Roegge that his vintage toy does really well in slippery conditions, Zwart throws it around in the Colorado snow - on pencil-thin studded tires on 16-inch wheels - to prove the point.
Don't expect roostertails in this winter wonderland video, however; with just about 60 horsepower at sea level, gumption drops to about 40 hp when playing at 9,000 mountainous feet. But that's still plenty to work as a testament to the phrase, "If you've got it, flaunt it," and you can watch it below.
Porsche drivers escape this horrific VIR crash unscathed
Mon, 07 Oct 2013There is no doubting the fact that it takes nerves of steel to be a racecar driver, but the same can also be said for motorsports photographers. Case in point: The American Le Mans Series Oak Tree Grand Prix at the Virginia International Raceway where two Porsche 911 racecars crash hard into the tire barrier, but the dedicated cameraman stays with the shot - diving away only at the last second just as the battered No. 31 car (shown above) comes to rest atop the tire barriers just feet from where he was standing.
The crash occurred when the two Porsches charged hard into a corner. Judging by the video, the white No. 48 car appears to not see the orange No. 31 and the two cars make contact, skidding off track hitting the tire barriers at a high rate of speed. Both drivers walked away from the frightening crash, but the video - posted below - shows just how bad things could have been. Hopefully the close call will serve as a lesson for the woman standing in the track marshal's post who has her back to the racing as the two cars barrel directly toward her.
Porsche 911 GT3 wows the crowds in Geneva
Mon, 04 Mar 2013Porsche has a long and storied history of taking its range-topping 911 sportscar racing, with an enviable record of achievements in tow. The latest machine with which the automaker will take to the track can be seen above: the fifth-generation 2014 911 GT3.
With 475 horsepower strumming through the 3.8-liter six-cylinder boxer engine, this is the pinnacle of naturally aspirated performance from Porsche. It can go from 0 to 60 in just 3.3 seconds, hit a top speed of 195 miles per hour and has lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in less than seven and a half minutes.
A dual-clutch PDK transmission (no standard manual gearbox will be offered) with shorter gearing than lesser 911 models sends power to the rear wheels. Providing forward motion isn't the only thing those rear wheels will be doing - Porsche says the 2014 911 GT3 is fitted with the manufacturer's first active rear-wheel steering.
