Gross!

 

I swapped mine for a 56 Chev hardtop in 1980 on the spur of the moment. The chev turned out to be a piece of crap but still got $6500 for it from another sucker taken in by the looks.

 

The 911 E advertised above was originally delivered as a Sportomatic and leather upholstery, now both missing. I'm still trying to fathom the asking price.

So if originally delivered as a 5 speed, what does that "add" ?

 

Classiqued?

The true value of that car is 100k, why would anyone want one say over a 997 series 11 .

or a 964 or a Carrera 3.0 or 3.2 or a SC. with 100,000s still in the pocket .

Perhaps what we all should do ,is advertise our cars for huge money ,just to f....the market .

 

Time to move on Rob.

 

Having owned when new the best road-going air-cooled 911 of all time, I'd say I'm in a position to make the correct comment.

Rather than them some off-the-cuff romantic foolish comment ...Just saying.

 

Time to move on Rob.

 

IMO a Series 11 997 Carrera S is a car I'd like for GG/GAD runs .

 

Gunna.

Sell the Rollers Arthur.

Yes both going and that will be my war chest for a 911 ,my issue is garage space .

 

I still say the Turbo.

Just to have AWD for those rainy days.

 

To be fair, that may be just one of your thousand issues.

 

I'd be happy with a 997 S 2 or 4wd .

 

With a bunch of you blokes bangin' on about 6 cylinder VW's I thought I'd go and have a look.
This thing took my eye straight away as it's veeeeery similar colour to my '71 T:

How much to rebuild the engine ?

 

I'm a great fan of the water cooled 911s ,nothing steers or points like a 911 .

 

And that is exactly how to mod a modern 911
- duck tail
- Fuchs style wheels
- pepita cloth inserts

10/10

 

Do you have anything positive to say about anything or are you going to stay a grumpy old man?

 

Get the bores inspected for scoring and spend about $4k sorting the IMS bearing issue and it won’t be going bang any time soon

 

I think they do that style seat material style in the current spec cars ,great look/

 

Be a nice unit for GAD/GG .

 

I agree,took my fancy immediately......the colour helped and that doesn't happen very often with me.
