912 on 2040-cars

Clean and nice.

Sadly the time has come to sell some of my cars. Reason for sale is a 2 year old and simply not enough time, and in the case of this car not enough room for a baby seat. I have owned this car for nearly 5 years and held on last year to join the 50th Birthday celebrations. As with every purchase, I bought the best I could. This car was purchased from a Toronto collector. At that time he supplied a vehicle appraisal from April 2005 (Hogtown Old Cars, Toronto) with value at $15,700. That appraisal is available scanned via e-mail and will come with the car as part of it's history. During my ownership it has only been used on dry Summer days and stored in a heated environment during the Winter. I have been fortunate enough to race against big brother 911's so appreciate the timeless lines, most often whilst passing me. Being a '67 the lines are not spoiled by mandated side reflectors. The exterior of the car is of sound quality. The paint has some crazing/cracks but these have not advanced during my ownership. They are on the bonnet and pictured on left rear fender. There is no evidence of rust and underneath the car is solid with no welding/repairs. Under arches are clean. The chromework is bright. On a negative side there is an abcence of 912 badging (maybe a 911 wannabe) and the front chrome intakes have been machined to take spot lamps. The car starts with ease, pulls well in all gears, stops as it should with discs on all corners, period alloys wearing matching Dunlop rubber (approx 6mm tread left). There is a slight oil weep, I beleive from the lower sump (? retorque/new gasket) but never enough to worry me or my mechanic. The interior is in good condition with a small dime sized wear patch on the driver's bolster. Gauges are of the 'green' variety and working. The headlining is good with one small stain. Negatives to the interior are period speakers. I have exposed the wiring to show how easily these would remove. There is an Alpine CD player, again not in character with the car. Bonnet, boot (hood, trunk) and filler caps open easily. Please request any further car pictures. I would also welcome any inspection. You are bidding on a fast appreciating classic in the region of $20's-30's k. Please prompt payment of deposit and balance. I am aware that car haulage companies wait for orders to fill before giving a date so will give one months grace. Therafter $50 per week for indoor heated storage. This is a penny auction, no reserve, not to be ended early.
