    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to share the some picture of our new toy...:) It's a 1966 Porsche 912 all original with only 56K original miles....) There is NO rust anywhere...:D It was given to us (yes given) from my wifes father who has not been able to enjoy the car for about 4 years...:(.

    Now for the bad new (if you can call it that) the car was given to us, but that does not mean it was free...:( It has been sitting for over 4 year outside with just a tarp over it. We've had it at the mechanics for the past week getting check out, and having a ton or work done on the engine and fuel lines. The body, paint and interior are fine and need nothing....:) It needed a little more done than we thought, but 5k later it's at home...:D

    Hope you like it, it should be a fun little car to bum around in...:D

    Cool car. Looks very nice. I had a green 912 years ago. Fun to run around in. Enjoy!

    Enjoy the new ride. I've always loved the purity of the lines on early 911s/912s.

    Looks sweet Reg!! ahhh... brings back memories of the green '67 that I had... it looked like this when I sold it back in 1998, and powered by a highly modified, carburated Chevy 2.8L V6. This is the only pic I have unfortunately... thanks to a @^#%$ seized hard drive a few years ago.
