Chopped Porsche 356-914-911 Could Be Yours!
What do you get when you put a chopped 1955 Porsche 356 body on a 914 pan with a 911 engine, then add vast amounts of fabrication skill? You get an Outlaw 356-influenced machine that goes fast and commands a Buy It Now price of $175,000. Some of you may recognize this car's seller, Fantasy Junction, as the same folks who ran the ill-fated Mazdasaurus Wrecks and the car with the quickest lap time at the Thunderhill 24 Hours of LeMons. Let's see- lot full of drool-inducing machinery, crew full of racing fanatics... I need to get over to Emeryville and check this place out! Thanks to Carless for the tip! [eBay Motors] More » -

1963 Porsche 356
Back when we had the Favorite Porsche Down On The Street Poll, the winner was the '67 Porsche 912. While it's possible that the vote-splitting among the four Malaise Era 911s may have handed the win to the 912 by default, the fact remains that the oldest Porsche won. Is that because 1967 was long before the Porsche name got weighed down with all the Lifestyle Symbolism it bears today? Well, that '67 is a Porsche-come-lately next to today's DOTS find! Here's a street-driven '63 356 that still has the original paint and is no stranger to the autocross course to boot. More »
