Refinished in original Champagne Yellow with Green Leatherette interior. 68935 actual miles. Original motor redone during restoration; transmission was replaced with a correct 5spd. Recent Michelin XZX tires installed. Certificate of Authenticity included. An all-around stud that needs nothing to drive and enjoy.-- Original Factory Options: Antenna Loudspeaker 2 Headrests - Leatherette Tinted Glass All Around Ventilated Chrome Wheels Talbot Mirror Wheel Caps w/Crest 5 Speed Transmission Dunlop Tires www.switchcars.com Price: SOLD  1970 Porsche 914-6 Porsche's 914 used to be a red headed stepchild, but no more. Collectors have awoken to what enthusiasts have said for years: These light, mid-engined cars are a blast to drive. Leading the charge are rare 6 cylinder models like this stunning car here. It's not just another pretty face, either—this car comes with a serious track engine and plenty of minor tweaks! Signal Orange looks great on anything and especially on 914's. The paint is gorgeous having just gone through a $1500+ correction treatment. The bodywork is in excellent condition, and the car appears to be rust free. Rechromed bumpers join NOS and reconditioned trim for brightwork while all lenses are new. Fuchs wheels are timeless, and this set is beautiful. Rubber parts and seals were replaced when the car was restored. The interior is excellent with clean black upholstery on the stock seats and Coco mats on the floors. A Momo Monte Carlo steering wheel feels great in your hands while a big Auto Meter tach and a period 911 oil temperature/pressure gauge keep better tabs on the engine behind you. The unobtainium-filled oil temperature/fuel level gauge has been moved to an easily removable bracket in the center console. A fire extinguisher (which really should be in every vintage car) is on the passenger side floor. The rest of the interior is proper down to the radio in the dash. For collectors, the original and numbers matching complete engine long block is included in the sale. The current resident under the center lid is a MONSTER of a motor. It's a fully prepped magnesium 2 liter case with a fully counterweighted '70-71 S crank, Carillo connecting rods and JE pistons. New cylinder jugs and those pistons push displacement to 2.2 liters. 2.7 Liter heads with larger valves work to the beat of a custom set of Webcam camshafts. Air and fuel are ingested wholesale by a set of Weber 40IDA carburetors with modified venturis. 12.5/1 Compression crushes the mixture while twin spark plugs per cylinder and a pair of Electromotive ignition systems light it off. Exhaust gasses pass through equal length headers and a high flow muffler before being expelled through twin tailpipes. It currently runs on 93 octane but would need race fuel to reach its full potential: Redline is currently set at 7000rpm but the rotating assembly is capable of much higher. Heat is kept in check by a massive oil cooler ducted into the front trunk. The chassis is in excellent condition with newer bushings and clean hard parts. Braided brake hoses reach 911S calipers in the front and 911T calipers in the rear. Larger sway bars are at both ends along with Koni shocks and cross drilled brake rotors. The transaxle has been gone through fully and features a limited slip differential. This car is set up for canyon carving, open track days or competition—what it does next is up to you. A comprehensive list of spares and original parts also come with the car. A complete set of proper width Fuchs wheels, a bolt in roll bar, a racing front bumper and more are included and will require additional shipping consideration if the car is not picked up in person. A string of collectors has owned and cared for this car, and some have used it to its potential. This is a desirable car that's growing in value while fully capable of showing much newer sports cars its taillights. www.switchcars.com Price: SOLD  1970 Porsche 914-6.

Presenting a rare opportunity to take ownership of an exceptional and minimally driven example of the coveted GTS trim with the highly sought-after 5-speed manual transmission! Built in March of 1992 at Porsche's assembly facility in Stuttgart, this 1993 U.S model is the absolute ideal 928 GTS for the most discerning collector as it is representative of how a well-sorted and no-stories specimen should present itself. Surrounded by a timeless body where the rear fenders and tires ever so subtlety protrude outwards, thus creating a muscular, visual drama; a rear spoiler that further draws one's attention to its sloping roofline, while its iconic reflector strip adds to the dramatic, yet fluid design language by aiding in accentuating the wider rear fenders with the 17-inch Cup 1 wheels harmoniously completing the exterior. As you step inside the Classic Grey finished cabin and close the door, you're not only greeted by the solid thunk that emits from the closing of the door, assuring one of the car's solidity, but also by the embracing and heated power-adjustable front sport seats that are complimented by a cabin that features a streamlined and driver-centric layout, with the driver being welcomed by a 4-spoke steering wheel, 3-floor pedals and 5-speed manual gearbox. The cabin also features a sunroof and a CD-2, CD player.
It was driven and remained under the care of its first owner from late June of 1992 until 1997 when it was placed in long-term storage. The GTS remained stored until its second owner acquired it in February of 2011. During the 2nd owner's 8 years of ownership, less than 2,000 miles were accumulated. On the 2nd of February, 2020, its third owner took ownership and has since driven it less than 400 miles. This fastidiously maintained and turn-key example benefits from a July 2019 servicing that consisted of an oil and coolant flush, new water pump, and a timing belt change. Within the last 400 miles, it has also received new tires, lug nuts, wheel caps, wiper blades and exhaust tips, it had its brake hoses, rotors, and pads replaced, a caliper refinishing, while also having its transmission and brake fluid flushed. All parts that were replaced have been kept by the third owner. The GTS is an absolute legendary Grand Tourer from Porsche. Debuting in 1992 with production concluding in 1995, only 2,887 examples were produced. Of those, the U.S would only receive 406 examples. Finished in an illustrious shade of black with an interior upholstered in Classic Grey, this specimen would go on to be 1 of 190 examples and 1 of only 54 manual-equipped units produced for the 1993 model year and one of only 12 with sport seats! The GTS stands as the pinnacle in the 928 line and is powered by a 5.4-liter V8 engine that's situated up front with its sonorous roar emitting from its rear dual-exhaust outlets. Performance attributes are comprised of an engine with 345-hp and 369-lbs-ft of torque to the rear wheels; front brake calipers that are derived from the 911 Turbo; a weight distribution of 50/50 with a relatively low weight of 3,300 pounds; the Weissach axle rear-steering setup; and handling that's well collected with a very connected steering feel. Factory Options: Price: SOLD  1979 Porsche 930 Coupe - 3.3L 911 Turbo. Note: This car has had a lot of work done to it recently, including a full engine and gearbox teardown, and full repaint in original color. Details are below. That being said, it is not a perfect car, and still needs some minor sorting; details also below. It is a great driver and the paint job looks fantastic, but it is not up to the usual caliber of the cars we offer. That being said, we believe we have priced it accurately as a non-original driver-quality car, as an all-original 19k mile documented early 930 will run at least double this in the current market. Upgrades include Fabspeed exhaust, intake, headers, and blow-off valve. Car is purported to have 400hp. Mileage on odometer is not documented, and while the title shows actual mileage, we cannot confirm that the mileage is original, as there is no supporting documentation.-- Major service performed March 2012 by Auto Palace Porsche: All engine leaks addressed with full teardown - all new gaskets and seals installed.
