Is it just me or is it getting hard to find a gret early P Car

I really want to buy one and quick, but I can't seem to find one that I am interested in.

No Targa, prefer Orange, but will take any that are really nice.

The car must be original and in great shape.

Michael

How much do you want to spend? The selection may get larger as your price goes up.

if you've got enough money, there is always a nice one for sale.

Find a nice one, find it quick, buy it cheap. Pick any two.

I don't have a budget, or until I got to get my wife approval on it. The nicer the car the easier the sell with her.

Normally, Im no shill for a dealer....but there is a cool looking 76 911s coupe at a dealer in Hermosa Beach right now....153,000 miles, but the car is pretty damn clean and a nice blue with Black Fuchs and tan interior. I checked under the fenders and they appear to be real though I believe that the car was repainted. The interior is looking very nice. I have no idea what they are asking for it. There is also an 88 turbo-look Cab there that is stickered at $27K

puzurinshushinak,

That is a nice looking one, but no Targa for me.

Thanks

To answer your original question, yes, I believe they are getting more difficult to find. I think every Pelican has got at least one squirreled away and kept secret. Better than stocks or bonds.
