For Sale - Another Porsche 356 B Spare Parts Catalog

Weird that I would stumble across another one of these so soon after I sold the last. This actually belongs to the widow of a long-time buddy who was an avid 356 owner and driver. I was visiting her last week and saw this tucked into a shelf out in the garage. I told her that we could find a new home that would appreciate it.

Like the last one, this is dated 1960. It is PRISTINE! Pages are very clean, cover is in great shape and the only noticeable flaw I can see is a small tear in the tissue paper on the spine.

Asking $275.00 SOLD!

Blast from the Past! (Take II)

I received a second batch of photos of the Aase GTU car this week from photographer Ted Zombek. These photos show the high level of restoration being performed. The goal is to have the car completed for a debut at the Porsches 2 Oxford event in Oxford, Ohio on July 30.

Blast from the Past!

I received a couple of sneak preview photos today of the Aase Brothers Porsche 911 GTU car nearing the end of its restoration. Hopefully we can get it out to Mid-Ohio for some photographs later this year before the snow flies. The last two photos are courtesy ehpone2007 on Flickr. They were taken at Laguna Seca in 1980.

One Year Only - '67 911S Front Deco Strip

Rarest of the rare, this is a front rubber deco strip for a '67 S. Not reproduced anywhere, this is one of the, if not THE hardest part to find for a '67 S restoration. I also have the stainless deco backing, but I "think" that this is the same as the readily available 69-73 stainless.

Condition is good, but not perfect. Looking closely at the photos, you will notice some slight checking of the surface of the rubber - but only in certain areas. With a few applications of rubber treatment, this will look great from anywhere but a foot away.

Price : SOLD!

Kubelwagen

Not too often that you see one of these German military Kubelwagens. Last week I visited Doc Von Kubel Werks restorations in Miamisburg Ohio and got to see four Kubel's in various states of restoration plus a Schwimmwagen, a German half-track and a Mercedes staff-car. When I return, I hope to get a ride.

In the meantime check out this '42 Kubel that served in the German army in Norway. It spent most of its life in Norway but eventually ended up in the U.S. where it has been for the last twenty years or so.

For Sale - Porsche 356 B Spare Parts Catalog

Up for sale is this spare parts catalog dated Jan 1960. It is in good shape...not perfect, but certainly better than average. It appears to be complete and the pages are tight and show little use with no greasy fingerprints so common with these catalogs. Very detailed down to the part # for the hammer used with Rudge wheels!

Price: SOLD!

And Now For Something Completely Different!

Truly one of a kind - a Split Window VW Rat-Rod Beetle mounted on a custom chassis. The "KDF Mangler" uses a race prepped Corvair motor for motivation. Look for it in an upcoming issue of Ultra VW Magazine.

'79 Porsche 911 Turbo For Sale - 9,868 Original Miles!

One of the very lowest mileage early 911 Turbo's. Not only low mileage and unmolested, but this stunning Turbo is presented in an unusual "Oak Green Metallic" a refreshing change from the more typical Silver, Red or Black! This Turbo is nicely equipped with a heated drivers mirror, electric sunroof, leather "Cork" sport seats and a limited slip differential. Even the original Pirelli tires are still on the car.

Condition is exactly as you would expect from such a low mileage example. More information is available upon request. Click below to view a slide-show of eighteen photos. SOLD

Is it a "Barn-Find" when it is your own property?

So, some guy buys what he thinks is a run-of-the-mill '67 912 parts car and parks it in his back yard. Time goes by and he notices some unique features that cause him to look a little closer (like the rear engine valance without the later pressed indentations) . Turns out that the car is really #191 of the 232 911's produced in 1964. Somewhere in the past, somebody has inexplicably cut out the original serial # and replaced it with a 912 serial #.
