Porsche 356 A Brake Drums,porsche 356 Brakes Vintage Porsche on 2040-parts.com
Westlake Village, California, US
Up for auction is a complete set of drum brakes for a Porsche 356A (Fits other years of 356). This set was removed from a 1958 356A back in 1981 when the car was upgraded to the disk brake system from a 356C. Since that time they have been sitting in a box in the garage. The set is absolutely complete with all original Porsche or OG supplier parts for the system. Also included are 4 nos cylinder rebuild kits from Germany as well as new front bearing grease seals and spindle nuts and washers. Also a bag of new brake hardware springs and retaining clips. There is also 4 extra brake shoes (I think they are rear shoes). The rear oil slingers are also included. Just found 2 extra A backing plates and added to the photos.
The 4 drums are in excellent condition and have plenty of lining surface left on all 4. The rears have nice sharp splines (castle nuts too) And the fronts both have there original ball bearings. All 4 have the original studs and all are tight and have clean threads. (I may have all the lug nuts in the garage somewhere and if I find them they will be included).
All in all a very nice set that with a minimal amount of work can be bolted to your car and used with confidence. Very had to find all these parts together and most of the reproduction stuff out there is not as good as the original German supplied parts.
The set is heavy. The weight is about 90lbs. All items will be carefully boxed and shipped. Payment through pay pal is expected within 5 days of the end of this auction. Please bid with confidence. I`m a long time Porsche owner. Shipping will be calculated at the end of the auction. This item is heavy aprox 80lbs. The shipping price shown is not correct. I will send the shipping coast to the buyer at the end of the auction.

Tuner MTM debuts 722 hp Audi RS6 Avant
Fri, 15 Nov 2013It seems a minor horsepower war has just erupted over in Germany, and the title at stake in this conflict is which tuning house can build the most powerful Audi RS6 Avant. Not that long ago ABT Sportsline unveiled a 700 hp Audi RS6 Avant, an absolutely rabid grocery-getter that can make the sprint to 60 in just 3.4 seconds. ABT's RS6 Avant packs 25 percent more power than the stock version of the RS6 Avant, which made an already hair-raising 560 hp.
Mercedes GLK at Detroit
Tue, 15 Jan 2008By Guy Bird First Official Pictures 15 January 2008 21:28 When the pictures of Mercedes’ new small SUV concept were shown prior to Christmas, there were plenty of pained expressions in the CAR office. To be honest, the cars look little better in the metal. Aiming to draw inspiration from the iconic boxiness of the legendary G-Wagon and the more car-inspired sculptural curves of the huge GL-class, the resulting melange does no credit to either.
